Small Steps
We make the “business side” of cakes simple, encouraging, and doable — one gentle step at a time.


Do you freeze up when someone asks, “How much for a cake?”
You’re not alone. So many decorators undercharge, overthink, or shy away from showing their true value — even when their cakes are beautiful.
If that sounds familiar, The Braver Baker will help you find your confidence, speak up about your prices, and finally feel proud to be paid what you’re worth.
PRAISE FROM HAPPY BAKERS!
"Karen is a wonderful, down to earth, lovely, understanding and very knowledgeable lady. the knowledge, tools and resources are invaluable."

How do I price my cakes?
Oh honey, it’s not about pulling numbers out of thin air or guessing what’s “fair.” It’s about knowing your worth, calculating your costs, and factoring in your skill and time. Don’t be that baker who undervalues their magic just to land an order. Price like you mean it—because when you start charging what you’re truly worth, the right customers will happily pay for your creations. No more discounts or second-guessing!

How do I attract new customers?
Stop hiding your talents behind closed doors! If you’re not showing off your work and putting yourself out there, don’t expect customers to just magically appear. It’s time to stop playing small—get social, post those drool-worthy photos, and let the world know you’re the cake designer they’ve been searching for. Don’t just wait for the phone to ring—make it ring. Be bold, be visible, and watch the orders roll in.
How do I promote myself?
Sweetie, if you’re not shouting about your cakes, how do you expect anyone to notice? You’ve got the talent—now flaunt it! It’s not about being shy; it’s about being unapologetically you. Post your creations, share behind-the-scenes magic, and let your personality shine through every post. Stop waiting for people to find you—be the cake boss everyone’s talking about!
How do I run a business?
Running a business isn’t a hobby—it’s a hustle! Stop treating it like a side gig and start treating it like the empire it’s meant to be. Get organized, stay on top of your orders, manage your cash flow, and plan ahead. A business isn’t just about baking cakes—it’s about running a smooth operation where everything clicks. If you’re not owning it like a pro, don’t be surprised when things start to crumble. Get your act together and make those sweet profits!
