About me

hey there!

I’m Kelsie

owner and creator

This little baby of mine was born from my passion for creating unique gifts for people. When I wasn’t able to source custom cookies for a friend’s hens party back in 2017 I decided to channel my creative energy in the kitchen, and try making some myself.
Baking quickly became an adventure for me, and I found myself experimenting with a basic sugar cookie recipe. Although my first batch of cookies may not have been aesthetically pleasing, it was made with love and it filled me with an excitement for creating something personalised, cute and edible, plus my friend absolutely loved them! Over the past 7 years I have made thousands of cookies and refined my skills to a high level, developing my own style of designs along the way. While I work full time in marketing, for a civil construction company, I find baking to be therapeutic and a great way to flex my creativity (most of the time at night). One of the things I love about my business is the opportunity to be a part of people's special days. Whether it's a wedding, an engagement, a birthday, or the joy of a new baby, every event holds its own significance. Being able to contribute to these memorable days bring me so much happiness. So, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me today. Let's explore how we can work together and make your next occasion truly special.

I CAN’t LIVE WITHOUT:

Vanilla Coke! I’m an absolute fiend for it. I will happily forgo any alcoholic beverage if Vanilla coke is on offer.. - and lordy… if frozen vanilla coke is there, that is just the holy grail!!

my favorite product in the shop:

Hands down the strawberry & cream dream loaded cookie. Even when I don’t feel like looking at another cookie for 4oo years, I will easily devour one of these.. (in one sitting..- which is no easy feat given the size of them)

top travel destination:

Ohhh, this is a hard one.. We have been lucky to travel some incredible places!! Japan for snow, Bali for sun and fun. Top 3 picks from our recent Europe trip: Amsterdam, Prague & Switzerland - delicious food, great culture and beautiful scenery!

what’s in my handbag:

Way too many things if you ask Nate.. Always my MAC ‘snob’ coloured lipstick, chap stick, mints, panadol, atleast 4 pens, 2 hair clips and a bottle of water.

my friends would describe me as:

Caring, thoughtful and giving.
