It has been exciting to watch Amai grow and become successful [especially after tasting their yummy Tea Sweets], and this […]

A Tale of Two Cakes
Even though Baron’s birthday was 6 weeks ago, I still have the urge to write about the yummy cakes I baked and bought for his birthday. I’m getting a reputation at work for being a baker, so I had to outdo myself when it came time to bring in a cake for Baron’s birthday. I […]
