Gelato, brownies & friend time… doesn’t get better than this 💕 what a beautiful moment!

Snapshot of the party:
👩‍🍳 Two teams worked their magic to make stracciatella gelato and a huge slab of brownies
🥳 We celebrated Mayra’s birthday!!!! 🙌 Mayra Natale Thank you for coming from so far away!
😋 We enjoyed freshly baked warm brownies and scoops of freshly churned gelato (some say this was the best part 😆)
🎁 Each baker piped a white chocolate message on their brownie to gift to a friend or loved one: daughter moving into her dorm, husband coming back home after a trip, friend who is sick, or just a gift for themselves 💕
