Mama Raspberry's Cupcakes and Sweets

I've been holding off sharing this until I had more details. My father has been in the hospital for a week and a half down in Dallas with what we originally thought was an arthritic flare up in his hip.

Sadly, it's much worse, and today we've received news that he has small cell carcinoma and it has spread pretty much everywhere.

My kids and I need to go down there for a bit to help him since he lives alone, and I will be leaving some time in the next week or two.

Since Mama Raspberry's is a one woman show, that means I'll be shutting down temporarily until I return.

***IN THE MEANTIME before we head out I'll be trying to use up all of the perishable ingredients. I am not ordering anything new right now (I'm completely out of four pack boxes and almost out of two packs) So I'll mostly be putting half dozen boxes in the fridge until we leave, I'll try to discount them as much as I can since it is the only size box I have at this time.

Please help me sell as much as possible until we leave 😭 I work because it is needed income and there's no such thing as paid leave for small business owners.

And if you feel inclined, please don't feel obligated, you can donate to my dad's fundraiser, I'll post the link in the comments.

Please keep our family in your prayers ❤️🧁

‼️ Update ‼️

Hey guys! I know I never made a formal announcement regarding the transition from website sales to self-service porch pickup so I'd like to do that now ❤️

Getting started here in Washington State has proven to be our biggest business challenge yet. It has taken some time to figure out what is going to work best for our family and for you guys, our customers.

Our soon to be previous website that included online payment processing has been getting too expensive for us to maintain while trying to build clientele here. So we are now switching to a new website that will be more cost effective for us (no payment processing!) but still provide you guys with a current stock inventory for the porch so you can make sure we have what you want before heading over.

In addition to monetary costs, it was also becoming a lot to be tied to the house all day to process orders as they came in on the website. Our kids are getting older, and as of this year I am homeschooling both of them. Between homeschooling and weekly standing appointments/activities for the kiddos, having the freedom to leave the house when I need to has become a necessity.

So from here on out our business will be self-serve porch pickup and catering orders (4 dozen or more) only.

***The porch is open daily 9am-8pm***
I will not be posting and tagging followers on stock updates daily, I will only be posting and tagging on restock days!

I hope everyone can understand this decision, and I will do my best to rotate the flavors out in different quantities and mixes (or not mixed!) as best I can so that we can all have the flavors we want.

Thank you all for your continued support and if you haven't yet, come check out the porch, and keep an eye out for restock updates! ❤️🧁

‼️ QR codes on the porch are fixed ‼️

Sorry for any inconvenience guys, for some odd reason both mine and Ashley's Cashapp QR codes were not working after being operational for weeks 😅😂

New signs have been printed out and tested, as well as more clear information on pricing and how to pay each vendor!

Thank you all for your patience as we iron out all the kinks! We want this to be a quick and simple shopping experience for everyone 🧁❤️

We still have 3 boxes of July 4th cupcakes and pecans will ALWAYS be in stock!
