Every spring, a familiar energy bubbles up at Bella Bella Bakery. It starts with a parent stopping in after school drop-off, casually asking if we’re doing graduation cupcakes again this year. Then someone calls about sprinkles and icing in their kid’s school colors. And before we know it, our kitchen is full of frosting and the kind of joy that only comes with seeing kids grow into their next adventure.
Graduation means something different for every family. Sometimes it’s a cap-and-gown moment with speeches and photo ops. Other times, it’s moving up from kindergarten, finishing a tough year of middle school, or just surviving fifth grade with most of your socks still matched.
What I’ve learned over the years is that these moments matter, no matter how big or small they look from the outside. And for a lot of families, a simple treat has become part of the tradition. Something sweet to mark the occasion, whether it’s shared at a party or handed over with a proud smile and a big ol’ “You did it!”
That’s why we offer customizable cupcakes this time of year: frosting colors to match school pride, sprinkles that pop in photos, and flavors that feel like summer break is already here. We keep it simple: you place the order, we do the rest. No decorating needed at home.
Whether you’re cheering on a new college grad, a high school senior, or a very excited third grader, here’s to marking the milestones with a little sugar, a lot of love, and a whole tray of cupcakes.
