Carla, I am working on making buttons and T-shirts now and sending them out. I had to figure out the best way to ship them. I am sorry you seem upset that your sister isn't working with me anymore but it was time to part ways on this project. I have already sent out the bottom two tiers of awards out and am working on the others and at the same time working on the cart as funds allow. Thanks to everyone for being so supportive and patient while I deal with the various issues that arise in a project like this. I am hoping to do the Grand Opening March 1 and then depending on when I can get an opening downtown, move there shortly after.
So, When do we get what was promised? I suppose you are working on the gifts that you were to personally make and give to the donors according to the amount pledged? I know that you got rid of your "partner" so I guess it will be even longer before you get things ready to go.
Good luck, and remember the little people as you keep growing!!
Congrats Liz!!! So proud of you!!!! Can't wait to see everything come together! Wish I could actually taste one--you may need to expand to shipping nationwide!! :) Love you!!
You Go! We're behind you 100%

Looks like you hit your goal, congrats!
I wish I could give more, but I did what I could. Good luck, looks yummy!
Additional comment: I suggest that you contact some local restaurants and businesses. They should love you. Also, you may be able to sell some of these to Trader Joes or Henry's (if they are in Portland).
I just decided to back you. Your talent for food and art is inspiring. I know you will make it big with a heart like yours. Love your zest. Keep it up. Hope to see SavorCakes (one word) in my part of the world but I hope that somehow they can use locally grown food to make them. Best always... YouTube Dictator of the Universe
Thank you everyone for your support so far! Hopefully our spot on the news tomorrow morning will get us to our goal! Thank you thank you!!!
I loved your story and felt a bit of a connection as I am a former graphic designer working on a biz plan for a bakery. I have never given to one of these, but had to give to this! I really hope you get fully funded by Thursday! And I don't need a button. I'd rather you keep the $ for your cart. :)
As a fellow Portlander, I think this is great! So glad to back Savor Cakes Cart.
Om nom nom nom :)
Good luck! Your products look great! Wish I was near you so I could get a taste.
Can't wait to build your cart so I can eat all your savor cakes. =)
ohmygosh that is too adorable Jeff! I cannot wait to give your daughter her first savor cake!
My six year old daughter thought your idea was magic! She's paying half of the pledge so that she can have the savor cake. : )
Good luck!
I have been very lucky to actually have tasted some of these delectable savor cakes and they are superb!!
Thank you for your support Devan! I am so excited to start baking these savor cakes for everyone! Remember 3 years ago when we were both unemployed and making cards out of the spare room? We've come a long way!!! Best adventure ever!
Liz I am so excited for you and so proud of how far you've come with this! I can't wait to eat these yummy savor cakes on my lunch breaks. I'm spreading' the word like wild fire, cuz I know that this is gonna be a hit with food carts in PDX! Plus your savor cakes taste amazing and you are the Queen of Baking. Congrats on starting this adventure! And I hope you get fully backed and more!!!
