Story

Ever since she was young, Sweetheart loved to bake. She would follow her mother around the kitchen, merrily learning everything she could about how to be an incredible baker, just like her. She once told her mother, Diana, about a secret dream that she held in her heart. Her dream was for the two of them to open a little café together where they could make sweet things for their friends, family, and all of the people of Calico to enjoy. It was then that Diana made a confession of her own, that she also had a dream of opening a little sweet shop that made all sorts of pastries and treats for everyone. And just like Sweetheart, her dream was to run the shop with her daughter right there at her side...always.

Now, Sweetheart is a lovely young woman and her dream has become a reality...except that the dream she once shared with Diana, is now one that she carries alone. Her greatest desire now, is to make her mother proud and to make their Sweet Shoppe the most magical little café in all of Catriona Isles. Luckily for her, she has many friends to help her fulfill that wish, because the life of a shop owner is not all fun and games. Juggling her personal life and her work life can be tough, but with good friends and loved ones with her, she knows that she can do it. With them, she can do anything.
