Remembering that I have wished and wished and wish Remembering that I have wished and wished and wished for an opportunity like this and that sometimes imposter syndrome tries to take all the hard work away or tries to make me forget where I truly started which was always piecing things together to make myself a space to work from.  Whether it be my tiny basement suite in 2006 to my townhome kitchen in 2012, to getting to use my main kitchen’s old oven in 2019, it’s all brought me to this moment.  We’re not quite finished yet but *almost there*. Cannot wait to be creating in the kitchen again. 😌🤍  #whendreamscometrue #kitchenreno #cakemamastudiobakery #veganbakery #veganbaker
I love the abundance of fruit in the summer! 🫐🍒  My grandpa always used to make “sok” or syrup using raspberries or blueberries and so when I had a bunch of cherries and blueberries come in my first thought was let’s make sok! 🥹  This recipe is pretty versatile in that you can sub just about any kind of fruit in it. Add it to ice cream sundaes, tea, pancakes or a cream soda like I did here!  Recipe:  2 cups blueberries
2 cups cherries, pitted
1 cup sugar  Bring mixture to a boil in a sauce pan then strain juice. Allow to cool slightly then pour into a sealable container. Enjoy!  #sokjagodowy #jagody #jagodymrożone #cherryblueberrysyrup #blueberrysyrup #creamsoda #italiansoda #summerfruit #bythecakemama #vegandrinks
