So today I have been contacted several times because people think my cookie cart was stolen from again. This happened to me back in October, but a bake stand located in Alabama just had it happen to them a day ago and they have a very similar name to mine. My heart breaks for them. I know how this feels. You pour your heart and soul into this and 9 times out of ten if someone asked you for help you would give them the shirt off your back but to have someone steal from you hurts knowing you would always be willing to help someone out.
Please go to their page and offer kind words. They really do mean alot when you're in this position.
To be clear my cake shop has not suffered another robbery, and it is nice that people from the community have reached out. Its just a sad time we live in where the honor system can't be respected anymore. More stands will close up if we as a society keep walking this path. Small businesses are already hard to run, don't make it harder on us.
One of the saddest posts I’ve had to make but here it goes..
Sometime last night, someone stole everything from my bakery stand.
Not just the baked goods. They took the shelves, baskets, risers, cake stands, rug, bags, notepads..everything right down to the sign with my business name on it.
What was taken wasn’t just equipment or supplies. It was something I poured my heart into.
I’m a stay-at-home mom who started this little bakery as a way to have something of my own..a creative outlet, a hobby I loved, and a way to contribute to my family while doing something that brought me joy.
Every recipe was made during bed time, late nights, and in the little moments I could find between caring for my family. Every dollar earned went back into making this dream a little bigger.
To the person who did this: I hope you understand that you didn’t just take things from a stand. You took countless hours of hard work, sacrifice, excitement, and pride. You took something I built with love.
I truly hope you find comfort in knowing that what you stole meant the world to someone who was simply trying to create something good.
Right now, I’m heartbroken. But I’m also incredibly grateful for everyone who has supported my small business, encouraged me, and believed in me along the way.
Please keep an eye out for any of these items being sold locally, and if you know anything, please reach out privately. Edited to add a police report has been made.
Thank you to everyone who has supported my little dream. 🤍
