We will be closed for walk-in service as of September 2; as we will be retiring at the end of September. We are grateful for having been a part of the community’s celebrations. Over the past 13 years we have seen families move in and out of town, send their children off to college, military service and more. We have provided sweet treats for birthdays, First Communions, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, graduations, showers, weddings, births and memorial services. We have loved being a part of all these events.
However, it is time to move on and as Wilmette redevelops our area, we are ready for our next adventure.
We’d like to thank our community for the support and genuine kindness everyone has extended to us over the past 13 years. It has been an honor and privilege serving you all.
With All Our Love,
Larry & Vicky
