 Before - Unoccupied and run down

After - A quaint and whimsical shop

Come inside and feel welcomed!

A series of business had rented the space before we bought the building in 2013.  We started restoration and renovations in July 2013, creating a destination in Plainview.

It’s hard to miss our shop on Broadway in Plainview!  Just look for the pink and purple building with the barn stars and yellow sign!

The same pastel colors greet you on the inside of the cake shop.  Pink, purple, and green create a whimsical and inviting space for our customers.

An artist with an attitude!

Our attitude can make us or break us as. Negative attitudes destroy; positive attitudes make success! Life gives every one lemons at one time or another. It is our choice; what will we do with them?  Every day Sam turns lemons in to exotic and delectable creations that delight all your senses!
