Hi guys! It’s been a busy Summer. I had a good recovery from my surgery and had a wonderful time at camp with my church.

I’m so excited to share my July fundraiser with you! This month, I’m teaming up with my mom and dad’s business, The Ozark Candy Kitchen, to help raise money for the Bella Vista Animal Shelter—a place that’s doing amazing work for animals in need right here in our community.

From July 21–26, the Candy Kitchen is having a special Pie & Turnover Sale, and a portion of the proceeds will go directly to the shelter through my project, Save the Beans! 🐾💛

Here’s how you can help:
🍰 Buy one (or more!) of their homemade pies – just $20 each
🥐 Try the fresh fruit turnovers – $15 for 6 or $30 for 12
✨ Or go big with their gourmet turnovers – $20 for 6 or $35 for 12
Every order makes a difference!

Everything is made from scratch—no weird stuff, just real ingredients and lots of love.
And the best part? The more pies and turnovers we sell, the more we can donate to help the animals!

Thank you so much for supporting Save the Beans and the sweet animals at the shelter. Let’s make this the best fundraiser yet! 🐶🐱💕

To order, message Ozark Candy Kitchen or leave a comment here and I’ll help connect you!

🐾 Lemon Bars for Love – Final June Fundraiser! 🍋

Hi friends! 💛

I wanted to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who supported my recent fundraiser for the Bella Vista Animal Shelter and helped me raise money to go to church camp. Because of your kindness, I get to go—and that means so much to me. I'm really excited, and I know God made a way through you. 🙏🏼

Before I head to camp and have my surgery (which I'm a little nervous about, but trusting God through it), I wanted to do one last fundraiser for June to help the animals still waiting for their forever homes.

This time, I'm baking something extra special—Fresh Homemade Lemon Bars! 🍋🐶🐱
They’re made with love, lots of fresh lemon juice, and prayers for the sweet animals this helps.

🌟 8x8 pans for $15
🌟 Pickups June 18th and 19th
🌟 All proceeds go straight to help the shelter
🌟 Limited quantity, so please message to order!

Thank you for supporting my little mission. Whether you donate, buy, or pray, it means the world. Let’s give these animals hope—and share a little sweetness while we’re at it!

Love,
Aubrey 🐾✝️🍋

THANK YOU SO MUCH! 🐾⛺️❤️

I just wanted to say a BIG thank you to everyone who placed orders or donated during my recent fundraiser! Because of your kindness and support, I’ll be able to go to church camp and help the sweet animals at the Bella Vista Animal Shelter. That means so much to me!

I’m really grateful for everyone who believed in me and supported this cause. You helped make a difference, and I couldn’t have done it without you!

I’ll be doing another fundraiser for the shelter on the weekend of June 10th & 11th, and I hope you’ll be a part of it again. The animals and I are so thankful! 🐶🐱💕

With lots of love and gratitude,
Aubrey

Hi friends!

I’m doing a special fundraiser this June to help raise money so I can go to church camp this summer! I usually do one fundraiser a month, but since I have to have surgery soon, I’m doing TWO in June instead.

For this one, I’ll be making my family-famous Ding D**g cakes (as you know, they're SO good!), and my mom is helping by baking her soft and yummy sourdough bread. All the money from this fundraiser will go toward my church camp, and anything above that will be donated entirely Bella Vista Animal Shelter — a place I really love because they help take care of animals who need homes.

Ding D**g Cakes: $20
Soudough Boule: $13

Pickups will be Saturday from 8-11 or 2-6, or meet up Sunday at 2pm. Some earlier days may be available .

Thank you so much for supporting me, sharing this, or even just praying for me. It means a lot!

Love,
Aubrey

Happy Sunday!

I am offering two cakes for Mothers Day weekend, May 10th and 11th. I am making my mom’s famous chocolate layer cake with fresh strawberries and ganache. I will also have a strawberry layer cake!

The cakes will be decorated as pictured.

Strawberry Cake: $20
Chocolate Strawberry Cake: $20

As always that includes Arkansas taxes and is a 6” layer cake in a pretty box.

More importantly, this benefits the Bella Vista Animal Shelter as they continue to go through puppy and kitten season. I missed last month due to being sick, so make me busy! 😀

Life is worth living, because He lives!

I had hoped to get you some goodies for this weekend, but between illnesses in my house this month (Covid, Flu, AND Strep), weather this weekend, and nearing the end of school, I decided to try for another weekend.

I hope you all had a great and blessed Easter ✝️

$700 was donated to the Bella Vista Animal Shelter from my February fundraiser😳 You guys are amazing!!

I’m so excited for my March fundraiser!! My mama is showing me how to make her from-scratch southern banana pudding. I wanted to do something for St Patrick’s Day, but we don’t use a lot of artificial dyes in our house, so I will just be bringing you good old-fashioned southern banana pudding, all from scratch. YUM!! 😋

Meet ups will be next week at Allen’s as usual, and my mom will get with you all in messages to arrange times.

$20 per pan, as always, that includes tax and this is designed to be nonprofit.

We had to cut off orders last time (seriously, almost 60 cakes 🥴) You don’t want to miss this!! See that photo? It’s from their cookbook! 🥰

I wanted to jump on this afternoon to talk about my most recent fundraiser for the Bella Vista Animal Shelter.

I can’t thank you guys enough for your interest in my baking (even if it is my mom’s recipes!) and for my attempt at making this a nonprofit. This Ding D**g Cake fundraiser was by far my biggest yet, so much so we had no choice but to stop taking orders!

You ordered nearly 60 cakes and this means we will be giving shelter $700. I’m absolutely blown away. You guys are helping SO many animals in our area!

I am still trying to do a fundraiser every month, and right now I believe I will be eyeing St Patrick’s Day weekend. Please stay tuned!!

🚨 Guys, we are having to pause orders at this time!! We purchased our daughter a case of cake boxes, and in 24 hours they are gone and she needs more. This has been incredible! 🚨

Happy Saturday! I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New Year.

I am going to try really hard to reach my goal of a monthly fundraiser this year, so please keep your eyes open!

I want to thank everyone because my last fundraiser gave $450 to the Bella Vista Animal Shelter just before Christmas. That’s PAWSOME! 🥰🐾

My next fundraiser will be the week of Valentine’s Day and I am using my mom’s super famous Ding D**g Cake recipe from the Ozark Candy Kitchen! This is a very popular cake for them and is well known and loved. It is all homemade with chocolate cake, cream filling, and chocolate ganache.

Cakes will come in a box and are $20 with tax included. I will make as many as I can that week but I will also be in school, so if you want one please let me know as soon as possible!

Thank you 🐈 🐕 🐾 ❤️

Good morning, everyone!

Thank you for staying with me over the last few weeks as we dealt with the passing of my grandfather, illness, and Thanksgiving.

I’m back in a big way tomorrow! Steve at Allen’s grocery store is letting me have a table outside of the store tomorrow to offer you a lot of baked yumminess. This is directly benefiting the Bella Vista Animal Shelter!

Please come out and see me! I will be there with my family at 1pm and will be making homemade spice cake with cream cheese frosting, my mom’s famous chocolate cake and chocolate chip cookies, as well as MY famous caramel topped brownies! I make everything from scratch and use my mom’s recipes from The Ozark Candy Kitchen 🙂

I will have small layer cakes and cupcakes, cookies in a bag and box, and boxed brownies. I will make all I can!

Thank you for helping me help the animals ❤️🐶🐱🐾

Hello everyone!

Aubrey’s mom here. Sorry for the radio silence on this page for the past week and a half. Our family was dealt with a relatively unexpected death of Aubrey’s grandfather, my father in law, and Jay’s dad.

Aubrey is doing well and will be back to baking soon. The manager of Allen’s, Steve, has been gracious enough to offer Aubrey a weekend booth to do a fundraiser for the Bella Vista Animal Shelter! We will let you know a date when we get one nailed down.

Thank you for all of the prayers and well wishes. She is looking forward to seeing you all again soon!

For now, here is a sweet updated picture of our bottle-raised foster pups!

Hello everyone!

This week I am baking chocolate cake and it is available in two different flavors.

S’mores- Chocolate cake with homemade marshmallow buttercream. The center has the marshmallow buttercream and crushed graham crackers, topped with MORE marshmallow buttercream, toasted marshmallows, a Hershey square, and more crushed graham crackers.

Coconut- Chocolate cake with homemade coconut buttercream frosting and topped with toasted coconut.

At least 60% of profits will be going towards I’m Your Huckleberry Rescue. They mean a lot to us as we adopted our very own Zoey Rose from them last year. She was a baby and had been severely abused. She’s a very happy girl now!

Cakes are $20 and come in these really pretty boxes! These two pictured are available today if anyone is interested. Orders will be available Sunday afternoon.

Thank you everyone!
