Join us tomorrow at our craft fair for some delicious treats from Agape Cakes and Confections

🚨 AGAPE MOBILE IS GOING BACK ON THE ROAD! 🚨

It’s been a minute, we know! We’ve been so busy at the shop that we haven’t had much time to take her for a spin… but she’s officially coming out of retirement for this event! 🧁🚐

And even better — we’ve done this event before, and we’re SO happy to be back! 🤍

📍 SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12TH
Agape Mobile will be popped up at the Plaistow Library with all kinds of Agape goodies!

Cupcakes, cookies, cannolis & more — basically a mini Agape on wheels, if you will. 😉

⏰ 9AM–3PM OR UNTIL SOLD OUT!

We’re planning on hanging out until 3, but if you guys sell us out early, we’ll be packing it up — so make sure you come by, grab some treats, and say hi!

📍 Plaistow Library
🗓 Saturday, September 12th
⏰ 9AM–3PM or until sold out

WE’RE BACK ON THE ROAD, BABY! 🚐🧁🤍
