An important note from Sugar Tarts Bakery if you want to snag some deliciousness for your Christmas gatherings ❤️✨

Hello Tarts! An important message from us to you!
Please read…

Heading into this year’s Christmas season, Sugar Tarts Bakery will be doing things a wee bit different (ONLY FOR THIS XMAS 2026). Some exciting news is that after 35 years of being a full-time Hairstylist I am retiring. As of Dec. 24th I will no longer be behind the chair creating new looks for my wonderful clients nor will I be able to chat, laugh, and sometimes cry with them. This has been an emotional decision but what gives me comfort is that I can, in the new year, completely focus on Sugar Tarts Bakery rather than doing both full-time jobs/careers. It’s been a busy 10 years :)

So this brings King Tart and I, and some wonderful friends, to celebrate in Europe for 2 weeks in December. With how busy I will be at the salon to try and see 35 years of clients for the last time and going away there just isn’t enough time to host any xmas pop-ups in December. There will be NO PRE-ORDERS. We are urging you Tarts if you can’t imagine hosting friends and family this holiday season without Sugar Tarts treats, please take note of our last 2 Xmas Markets of the season…

NOVEMBER 8, SUNDAY, NAVAN XMAS MARKET 9:30 - 2pm
NOVEMBER 20, FRIDAY, HEART OF ORLEANS XMAS MARKET 5 - 8pm

IF… I find time once we get back from Europe I will see what I can do and perhaps post a mini Menu. This isn’t guaranteed, so please don’t rely on this.

Thanks, as always, for your continued support.
Starr :)

Truth time.

The Navan and Orleans Markets mean more to me than anyone could ever know or than I could ever express or put into words. They fill my heart and soul up with happiness and all the good things in life. Market days bring smiles and laughs, good times, good food, good friends. Seeing people cross paths with people they know and maybe haven't seen in a while. Reuniting. So happy. The joy is all encompassing. Talking with our vendor family and interacting with our shoppers. It's all the things that I look forward to on market days.

The markets also bring their fair share of stress. Last minute changes, cancellations and no shows. I have OCD when it comes to market days so I want everything to be as perfect as I can make it. I want everyone to come onto the grounds and have the best experience possible. I quite literally put my all into planning and executing the markets and I wouldn't have it any other way. And at the end of every market day, I always pick apart the things I wish I would have done better. I'm working on this 😁

This season has been particularly challenging. I am tired, drained, exhausted. It's weighed extra heavy on me this year for some reason.

The Navan Harvest Market is my absolute favourite market by far. It's my favourite time of year and I love sharing the love of harvest with everyone.

I have been doing grateful pumpkins since way back when I had the spa. We used to put them on the porch and have clients write on them as they came and went for their appointments or cafe visits. Then we started bringing them to the Harvest Market for all our shoppers to write on.

I almost didn't do them this year. Not because I didn't want to, but because I'm just tired and didn't have the energy and capacity to go buy them and get them set up. A simple task, but one that seemed like a lot to do.

My incredible husband Will, reminded me of how much the grateful pumpkins mean to me and how much I would regret not putting them out for Harvest Market.

I am sure glad I listened to him. I can admit that sometimes, he is in fact, right. Don't tell him I said that! 🤪

Below are pictures of the grateful pumpkins. If you have never seen them before or don't know what they are, we set out beautiful, blank bright orange pumpkins for anyone and everyone to write what they are most thankful for on them. There's something magical about allowing people to freely express what means the most to them in that moment and what they are most thankful for in their lives. Anonymously if they choose. No judgement. Just raw truth. Every single year these messages bring me to tears and make me laugh. This year was no different.

So here's a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who continue to show up. Continue to support local. Continue to bring good to our community and to the world. Continue to allow our vendors to bring what they love to do, to life.

You are why I do what I do.

And today, I am thankful for all of you.

Please enjoy reading through these messages.

And if you get the chance, go outside and let the sun hit your face. You'll be grateful that you did.

Love always,

Amanda ❤️
