Would you have taken this order if it was from your mom? Or would she have to follow the rules like everyone else?

We've been ghosted too many times at our bakery. We've finally gotten wise and require a deposit. No one has had an issue with this new policy.
I love watching your videos. Your work is stunning!
I hate to say this but…it not the cakes that have held my interest. It’s you and all the ways you are so honest about your work, family, advice, and expressing your feels. The cakes do look delicious and I like the buttercream frosting advice. God bless you, your family, and your business.
Aww thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰
It’s your MOM that’s the difficult customer?! 😆 too funny. Can’t say no to mom ☺
BUSINESS is BUSINESS....
And if a Mother is a good mother... they would be the BEST Customer!!!
"Come on now!"
I wish my daughter didn't say no to me.. she bakes these wonderful pastries and I offer her ridiculous amounts of money for even 6...and its always a flat out nope...She says she doesn't have time...I gave you life! Make time!😂
Some people are gifted with the gift of bake and some like myself are not lol..
@@finni-h2x LoL. Love that... Turn on that Mom Guilt!! LoL jk!
@ToniH.-cn8uw haha whenever I can..I think they are on to me now tho..😂
I'm going to start asking family members what cake flavor they want, bake, and freeze their cake a month in advance 😂
That is such a smart idea. I think I shall do the same!
Now imagine them changing their mind a few weeks or days before the delivery 😭😭
I’ve had this happen. They changed their mind 3 times then cancelled. I don’t do orders anymore for this reason either.
I like that device that you used to crumble the cookies, where can I purchase that?
@@TheStationBakery
ASK for 50% down first.... then Freeze the cake...
You crack me up…so fun to watch! Your mom must be so proud of you. Thanks for sharing your daily “ventures” with us. ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
I was like girl no until you said it was for your mom. LOL!!!! You betta get in that kitchen.
😂😂😂 right!!!
And she's not paying because she gave birth to you! LOL!
I am glad that my Family lives in Germany and my Husbands Family 2800 miles away from me, so no baking for them but I have to cook German Food when I get there and of course the cost is on us. My Husband tells me it's always a Gift no matter what it is.
Oh yes, I feel ya. My cake pan storage looks like that. Certain family members think I'm the Cake Fairy. Bless you for your big heart.
Your cabinets look like mine, but we get it done! 🙏🏾🥰❤️👏🏾👍🏾
Y’all I am one week in watching this young lady, and I just love her! She is a great storyteller. For some reason I said this is for a loved one ( last minute too 😂). Well, I can definitely relate because my only daughter and my oldest granddaughter does it to me all the time. 😅 It was a joy to watch. 🤗🥰
Your attitude during the last minute order was hilarious ! LMAO. Pursed lips the entire time. So sorry girl. I know you did it out of the goodness of your heart!
When I owned my studios I only accepted bookings with a no refundable 50% deposit. I did give them 72 hours to cancel. After 72 hours no refund.
I knew it was for someone you love! Because we love them it’s ok to vent and fuss🤭 she’s a lucky lady❤❤❤
Absolutely! 🥰
I just love your sense of humor 🤣 I can watch your videos all day and not get bored. Yeah, why do we do this to ourselves seriously??? I think it's just difficult to turn down an order, especially from a loved one!
Most definitely! We love them so much so we do things out of the ordinary for them. And thank you!
This is a BUSINESS...
EVERYONE should RESPECT that especially Family & Friends...
Ask for 50% down... for EVERYONE... Especially Family and Friends... they're the ones that will use you and hurt you first...
"Come on now"....
Just stumbled on your page!!! The shelving above your refrigerator is what I want!!! I’m about to redo my whole kitchen and have the wasted space above the fridge and thought about doing just shelves and thought it might look weird… but yours looks so nice!!!🥰🥰🥰
Family sometimes is the worse 😂😂
but I’d also do the same for my momma.
Right! 😂
This is by far my favorite video!
❤️❤️❤️
Youre so good! I learned a lot watching you!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Mom is the one. Girl, you are funny & I get it!!!!
😂😂😂
I took on two orders, both gave plenty of notice, due same time, same day, at least I got both to meet at Same place....
Down fall? Got a friend who owns a restaurant. She was majorly short handed, started calling in friends.... I was the only one to answer.... 3 nights....

Half way through the day I was half was through a cake, then dropped it in the floor..... 11.5 hrs it took to mix bake chill trim fill stack crumb coat frost decorate get pictures box up and decorate two pull apart cakes....
Beautiful! I love your videos!!🥰
The audacity hahaha you are a hoot.
I would love to try the pumpkin spice butter cake! Love your videos
You are very talented. And a good daughter.
Hahaha!!!! You had me until you said it was your mom!! So funny!
😂 this was a nice down to earth video I've seen in a while
I'm 54 seconds in....You so funny 🤣...and your voice is too cute 😩
Noooooooooo!!!!! Tell me it did not fall!!!! 😭😭😭
You are so so funny
The cake looks so so good
I need this same cake, delivered YESTERDAY, to NM. Make it happen! 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣 check your deliveries…in like 6 months
@@TheStationBakery 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Stop taking last minute orders. Require a deposit on all orders, nonrefundable. Charge extra for delivery.
Absolutely!
Families and friends always wanting everything for free 😭😭
It's for the challenge I work well under pressure Make it do what it do...💕
Absolutely! 💪🏽
You had me fooled it was for your mom, I hate when you want to try new recipes and mom be like no stick to the basics lol
Hey, that looks like my cabinets lol. I keep my stuff in the underside cabinets too.
Ps. My son tries to con me into making jewelry so he can give it to girls he likes at school. The struggle is real.
😂😂😂 how old is he? That’s so sweet!
I feel this video so much! XD though I charge my mom for my goods lol. he cake is beautiful, so sorry to see it fell on the journey, would a wooden skewer driven into the drum have helped? I refuse to do small, tall cakes like this because they just look so unstable.
Pass them coins mama! 😂 thank you, I was so sad about it, but I guess that’s what happens when talk a lot of trash lol. Definitely a skewer problem. It didn’t go all the way through into the board and I knew it, but thought, oh it’s small it’ll be alright. And it probably would have if I was able to chill it before we left. We just turned it around to its good side for the party lol
Beautiful cake. Sorry it fell during the journey. What caused that and was it still eatable?
So you basically doctor up a box mix, and add other touches? I need to learn to do this, completely from scratch takes too much effort sometimes lol
Just for this cake for her mom. She doesn't do this for the cakes she sells.
I’m a good daughter !!!😂😂😂 girl yuh mama was “this customer “ all this time!!!
🤣🤣🤣😅😅
I only want to know why it took 12 hours? Just curious because I wouldn’t have thought it would take that long. 😱
Yes we are all that and more
100%! We are amazing! 🙌🏽
This woman's kids be eating cake everyday and you're cake looks great but I can't buy it because I live in Maldives
🤭 Your hilarious. You make me want to have my own business too.
Im a new watcher but, just wondering how come you didn't properly ice the cake? Its beautiful and all but u could see the cake right through the icing on middle & bottom layers. Was it because u were "ticked off?"
You look so professional and i can see u put love and dedication into your cakes. Just wondering 🤔
Hi! 👋🏽 Welcome!! It’s a semi naked cake, so it’s meant to be partially iced.
Great video and cake. Did you wrap your cakes while they were warm still? Thanks
Sorry it fell
No Sissy, add a cup each of sour cream, AP flour and sugar to the boxed cake mix and your mind will be blown!!!
This had to be for your mom cause ain't no way you did this for your most dedicated customer???
🤭🤭🤭
I missed you! 🤗
Beautiful cake!! Gurllll I will not take last minute orders well except for my mom. Lol!! Sorry your cake fell during journey.
Beautiful!❤
How much of each Lorann emulsion did u use for the one box mix?
I saw the recipe listed on your insta, but the amounts weren’t listed there either…
Also, is your original recipe, the one u said you usually make, available?
It’s to taste because I didn’t measure 🫣😂 I pour with my heart. Maybe try a teaspoon of each
@@TheStationBakery Got it…thank u!
A BEAUTIFUL JOB
Beautiful!
Set up an online payment method and don’t make it until payment is rendered.
Looks great!
Thank you!
Beautiful cake Koko I hope your mom enjoys it
Thank you and she did!! 🙌🏽🥰
I hope you charge for last minute order and delivery so your cake cost *1.5
Absolutely!
This cake has to be for your mom or special love one in your life because you are breaking all the rules. I’m still watching.🤷🏾♀️
🤭🤭🤭
@@TheStationBakery The things we do for our moms ❤️💞. The cake turned out beautifully.

I hate cupcakes. Yeah, I know. It makes no sense.
Love you hahaha i know how it is. I do that all the time hahahaha say hi to 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
It’s because it is exciting and dangerous. But you know you can do it. Does that sum it up? 😂
A box mix. That's not baking that's faking!
Just because you use a box mix doesn’t mean you’re better!
Now girlfriend u know better stop taking those last minute orders that's too much stress on u for real u too talented for the stress
