Sugar by Steph

These cookies accompanied the Berry Sweet baby shower cake, and I have to say…

One of the WORST THINGS EVER—sorry for yelling. I’m annoyed with myself—is when you spend literal DAYS working on an order, and then you take terrible photos of it and don’t have time to take better ones. 🥲🥲🥲

The only thing worse than terrible photos is forgetting to take photos at all, I guess. Which does happen. 😬

Wish I’d shown more of the variety here, but you get the picture.

Berry, berry cute and berry-ful and so sweet for an all-American baby girl! 🥹🍓🫐

A “Berry Sweet” baby shower cake, to celebrate a baby girl who’s due to arrive on the 4th of July! 🇺🇸

4 eight-inch layers of vanilla cake, filled and covered with vanilla cream cheese buttercream, decorated with fresh berries 🍓🫐

Yes these are all cookies. And yes, I do have a weird tendency to experiment with hyper realistic cookie art around Father’s Day. 🤔

Anyways! These (and two other options) will all be available on sugarbysteph.com for preorders starting at 5 PM tonight. 😌

Pick up on Saturday, June 20th from 12-2 pm or from 5-7 pm.

Garden party-themed grad party?! Absolutely. THIS is the kind of graduation order I love! 😍

Congrats to the class of 2026! 🎓

I know graduations are happening this week and next week for almost all the grads in Marion County.

I’d be so happy to make more floral cupcakes/edible bouquets for all the grads who prefer edible flowers over real ones. Please let me know if you’re interested!

Reallyyyyyy took my time posting this one. 😅 No idea why, bc pink, hello kitty, with buttercream ruffles and bows is such a winning combination. Too cute not to share 🤷🏽‍♀️

Happy birthday, Evangeline! 🎀

I always feel weird sharing multiple photos of the same order, but I have to get all the ANGLES! So bear with me, please & thanks. 😊🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

Happy Mother’s Day! I didn’t make any desserts specifically for Mother’s Day this year, but I did make this cake for a wedding at yesterday.

I had full creative reign (such a gift!), and I think this is my favorite cake I’ve ever made. I was immediately obsessed with the bold jewel tones that the bride chose for the wedding palette, and I’m so grateful I was able to create such a unique, colorful wedding cake!

Congratulations, Stephanie and Rick! Everything was gorgeous. 🥹 I hope your special day was everything you ever dreamed of! 🥰

Bottom tier: lemon meringue cake (lemon cake with lemon cream, lemon curd, lemon buttercream, and toasted meringue)
Middle tier: blackberry swirled cake, brushed with blackberry coulis, filled with blackberry buttercream and blackberry mousse)
Top tier: vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream

Congrats on your engagement, Layla & Chris! 💍 These engagement cookies were done in champagne & white to match the engagement party colors, and they were as “simple-elegant” as I could manage. 😆

This was the last custom cookie order on my current schedule, believe it or not! I don’t have anymore custom cookie orders lined up at the moment. 😳

…But I’m totally ok with it! 😌

I know some bakers like to be completely booked up months and months (or years) in advance, and I definitely understand the financial allure.

But I actually PREFER to only be booked about ONE month in advance now!

It gives me a little more flexibility with my schedule/kids schedules, and I’m better able to gauge if I’m getting burnt out, so I can pencil in downtime before the burnout gets dire.

Or before it turns into me getting sick every two weeks. 😅🙃

So if you’re wanting to place an order for late May or June, you’re not too late! Now is the time to submit a request! There are custom order forms on sugarbysteph.com. 🤗🫶🏽 (just please no graduation requests, unless there’s a secondary theme. Ty in advance 🥲)

Teacher appreciation day is NEXT WEEK so teacher appreciation day cookies are on sale right nowwwww!

Purchase on sugarbysteph.com and pick up on either Saturday, May 2nd or Sunday, May 3rd. (Local delivery is also available for an additional fee.)

Yall know I’m a pink-loving girlie, but I forgot how much I love a tropical palette 😍
