“After 27 wonderful years, Bake My Day will be closing its doors today. It has been an incredible journey, and we are deeply grateful for your support and love over the years,” Katie states in the post. “For the past 7 years, I have had the privilege of running the bakery, following in my mother’s footsteps.

Katie explained that the decision to close the bakery is so she can spend more time with her mother, Joan, whose battle with Alzheimer’s has progressed.
Bake My Day has been more than just a business; it has been a place where we’ve shared our love for cakes, cupcakes, pies during Thanksgiving, and cookies at Christmas. We’ve cherished every moment, from the early mornings spent baking to the smiles on your faces when you tried our special treats. Today, as we open for the very last time, we invite you to join us in saying goodbye. We’ll have plenty of cupcakes and other treats available, and we hope you can stop by to enjoy one last visit and create one more beautiful memory together. Thank you for being such an amazing community. Your kindness and support have meant the world to us. With love and appreciation, Katie.
Katie Graap, Bake My Day
