“What started as two twin sisters with a love for baking turned into something we could have only dreamed of. From early mornings to late nights, thousands of cupcakes, and so many memories with all of you — this little shop has meant everything to us.

“We wanted to let you know that we’ll be selling the business, with our final day being tentatively the 31st of May.

We’d love to see as many of you as possible before we close this chapter.”

The post has attracted hundreds of reactions with people wishing them the best and sharing how much they will miss their cakes.
