Wondering what to do for Halloween this year? I’m very excited to be partnering with @tfadfw to host a spooky Halloween event for the whole family — Brains & Baking🧠🎃

I will be teaching how to make this creepy Rice Krispie brain and @michellebkinder will be speaking about how the different parts of the brain affect our feelings and emotions. Thanks to the generosity of @tfadfw, this event is FREE and will take place on Zoom on October 30 from 6-7 pm CST. Link in bio to sign up for the event. Feel free to share with others!

Grateful beyond words to make this our home✨ We’re all moved in and nesting away.

When this house first came on the market in July, I immediately knew that we had found our dream home. Between listing and then closing last Friday, we must’ve walked past the house at least 30 times. We daydreamed and designed every room in the house on these walks. It almost feels surreal to now be living in it! After many moves over the last few years, it feels amazing to be planting roots.

Just a reminder that we are not accepting orders for the month of October. We are hosting our virtual sourdough class on Oct 24 for those wanting to learn the science and technique behind sourdough baking. Link in bio for all the deets!

✨UPDATE & CHECK-IN✨

Hi friends! We are taking a hiatus starting today through October because we are *fingers crossed* moving. It’s been a bit of a bumpy ride through the home buying process, but we are hopefully almost through it. We will still be in the same neighborhood near Bishop Arts, just a few blocks away from our current place.

We will not be accepting any orders during this time, but we are hosting a few virtual classes! We’ll be teaching our full-day virtual sourdough class on 10/24 and a virtual pie party on 11/7. Head to the link in bio for all the deets and to purchase a ticket.

I want to acknowledge that this has been a tough week (ahem, year) for many of us. First with the loss of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a woman who moved mountains for all of us. A warrior for justice. And in the wake of her death, comes the injustice of Breonna Taylor’s murderers walking free. Justice has not been served and once again, our justice system has demonstrated the complete disregard for black lives.

It’s a heavy and upsetting week. But we are strong and resilient, and we’ll keep fighting for justice. Take action, whatever that looks like for you. Take care of yourself. Take care of one another.

Lastly, I want to thank all of our fabulous customers who have been so loving and supportive to us! Each of you are appreciated beyond words.

I will likely not be very active on social media while I’m on break because that’s the self-care that I need. But, if there’s anything that I can do for you, you can always reach me at kuluntubakery@gmail.com. Stay strong💛

Possibly my most favorite item on our menu — dulce de leche & sea salt brownies✨

I’ve a big ol’ soft spot for dulce de leche ever since studying abroad in Buenos Aires. We would eat it by the spoonful nightly.. no exaggeration😅(remember that @snollner and @sudden_beth?)

I attribute my time in Buenos Aires to when I first became really infatuated with desserts and pastries. After our classes, we would walk down the street to Chantilly, a little bakery, and enjoy some alfajores and cafe con leche for our merienda.

I have such vivid memories of that time, and it was quite honestly, the best time of my life thus far. I hope this brownie transports you to a time of travel, exploring and trying new cuisines. Salud to that🥂💃
