Hi Carolyn White, thank you very much for the lovely cake you made for Jeremy. If you don't mind, I would like to share abit with the rest, of the events that unfolded leading to this beautifully cake you baked for us. It was such a blessing

Joanna Aaron-Silvanus and I have been ordering cakes for our little ones Jeremy and Jacinth and our bother's little ones Justin and Juliette for sometime now. Like this cake,
all of her previous cakes have been a wonderful delight and a big hit at all the parties.

Celebrating the Birthdays on an Sunday is an usual practice in the family and this time around, as usual, we made our order via the email and was set to pick up on the Saturday
before the celebration. Finishing up with the last minute party supplies shopping, we headed to Carolyn's shop to pick up the cake at around 4pm. To Carolyn's surprise and our horror, there was no cake. Checking with the records, the date was set wrongly, instead of the birthday being on the 23rd of June, it was stated as 23rd of July. Unsure,
of where the mistake lied, we were lost for words. Carolyn, who was almost done and set to go home, graciously agreed to bake and design the cake for us. Now, this is just the evening before the party and so Carolyn had to be up late that night to finish it. We thanked her, and took our leave. On my way back home, with an unsettled feeling, I checked my email and realised that the date mix up was done by me. We really felt bad for Carolyn and called her up and explained to her that the error was made on my part, and apologised for it. Carolyn graciously accepted the apologies and even comforted us by telling us that she would continue to bake and finish up Jeremy's birthday cake.

The next morning we went to collect the cake, and realised that Carolyn was back in very early and had just finished the cake as we were arriving. We were again lost for words as
the cake was made with such detail, that we almost thought it was the real Nerf gun. We had nothing but thanks for her.

We would like to thank Carolyn for her professionalism, dedication, kindness, for taking her personal time off to finish the cake, and most of all, she had made Jeremy's birthday a very special one by baking this cake with much love and personal touch.

Thank you, Carolyn for all of the above and much more. God bless you and your team.
Love, Josh & Joanna.
