Dolce Terra

Last fall we started hosting a coffee meetup, now cleverly called The Coffee Meetup 😄, and it’s been such a fun and low-commitment way to catch up, on both life and business/career things.

As someone who loves cancelled plans 😄, I love meeting up for these each month. We meet at a different local coffee shop in the Austin area the Second Tuesday of each month.

For our April meetup, Jess of and joined, along with Stacey of , and April of .

If you’re interested in joining, send me a message✨.

Things I never knew would be on the Dolce feed…boxed cakes 😄. It had literally been decades since I made a boxed cake. Nothing against boxed cakes, because I love the comfort and nostalgia of them, but as a baker, it just didn’t feel right 😄.

Well, my brother and sister wanted boxed cakes of their childhoods for their birthdays, so how could I say no ❤️. Except I couldn’t bring myself to put gluten-full flour in my mixer 😄…so I made them at my mom’s 😄.

Strawberry Cake with Funfetti Icing
and
Yellow Cake with Chocolate Marble + Chocolate Icing

What I couldn’t skip was the fresh flowers from a local flower shop.

Happiest of Birthdays to them ❤️🎉…and love them so much ❤️.

A Dolce favorite is available to pre-order ✨
Our coconut bread is one of our most-loved bakes. It has a soft, tender crumb, is made with local eggs and organic sugar, among other organic ingredients, and is lightly sweet, with just the right amount of coconut. It’s breakfast, a simple dessert, or that much needed pick-me-up. It’s a quiet comfort.

Meet me at Cuppa Austin Coffee next Friday between 5:00 and 6:30 to bring home your coconut bread.
Pre-orders are open until Wednesday, November 19th.

You can order loaves or slices. Each box includes four individually packaged slices, perfect for sharing or saving. Our coconut bread freezes beautifully, so you can enjoy some whenever the moment is right.
