Summer is a whirlwind, isn't it? Seeing all your beautiful creations roll out, especially the custom cakes, is incredibly rewarding. I know how much effort goes into getting those orders just right, which is why I'm excited about the new tools to help you manage them with even more confidence and less stress.

Bakery Tip of the Week

This summer, focus on creating 1-2 'signature' seasonal items that truly stand out. Think about what's abundant and fresh locally – perhaps a peach and lavender tart, or a strawberry-basil shortcake. Use BakeOnyx to precisely cost these items with Recipe Costing. Then, consider offering them in a 'mini' size as an impulse buy at the counter or as a special add-on to larger custom orders. This not only drives sales but also creates buzz around your unique offerings.
