Mahalo Mermaids!
🧁🥂🧜🏻❤️
Whew! What a party!
Thank you so much for supporting our first event of 2023 for International Women’s Day! We had fun shopping on purpose and we were able to donate 25% of the proceeds during our event towards Women’s Fund of Hawai’i. Our total donation for the night was $2000! Mahalo Aleeka Morgan for sharing more about WFH during our event and partnering with us again for such a worthy cause.
We enjoyed spotlighting Angel from Treasure Hawaii to our customers who were looking for ocean inspired one of a kind finds! We love hearing about her adventures underwater! You can follow her on instagram @treasurehawaii .
We were honored that Summer Club joined us for the evening pouring their specialty drink POGMOSA for our customers to taste. We have had so many of you let us know that you enjoyed it and have already recommended it to family and friends. We love that one of the co-owners lives right here in Kailua! Thank you so much Larissa Nordyke for pouring all night and Jennifer Binney for stopping by to support our event! We also thank Hugh + Jenn Duncan for the introduction to the brand!

We hope you got a chance to sample some of the delicious desserts catered by A Cake Life! Our team was so happy they got a private tasting ahead of time so they could make some outstanding recommendations to our customers stuck at the table trying to figure out which one to try first! Give them a follow at @acakelife .
