Looks really good but her site as listed above site doesn’t have a menu, prices, complete list of offerings, etc. I guess you’d have to email or call for that info which seems like a bit for a deterrent.
Hi Kim! Thanks for reading! Sweets by Janine does not have website yet but she can easily be reached at Janine.guhit@gmail.com. She also does a lot of custom orders.
