I love to create cute bakes of all kinds. My main specialty is custom character macarons. I have an ability to create content that is visually appealing and unique and it piques people's interest.
Not only do I create appealing bakes, I also strive to be my authentic self and show it on my platforms. I am an advocate for mental health and I have been able to connect with followers on a deeper level than most other creators on social media. Because of that, it sets me apart from many typical influencers. I am a real person and my followers trust me.

I was gonna put a cute baby pic of me but then I found this picture of me as a murderous 3 year old with a birthday cake and I thought it was hilarious. From 3 to 30 🥹 4 years ago around this time, I was at a terribly low point and was planning on cutting my life short. So now turning 30 is kind of a big deal and honestly, I’m pretty emotional about it. The days leading up to today, I’ve been feeling weird and then I was crying all day yesterday but I wasn’t even sure if it was happy tears or sad tears 😅 Entering this new stage in my life seems pretty daunting, but people have told me the 30s tend to be great 😊 Soo here’s to 30 🥂💜 #happybirthdaytome #dirty30

Happy Halloween 🎃 Here’s me and Sheeb Jobs from last year 🍏📱 Sorry I’ve been dead on here 😔 Will be back soon; thank you 💜
I wanted to share this because it is something that really upset me. Yesterday (Sunday 10/16 around 4 PM), my Indian boyfriend went to the Twin Peaks restaurant location in Hollywood, FL to meet up with friends to watch a game. He was the first of them to arrive so he went ahead and asked for a table. The hostess said the place was full and there was nothing available. So he went outside to wait for the arrival of his friends to determine what they could do instead. During this time (about 10-15 minutes), he saw multiple parties go in and not come out. This meaning they were seated. He was confused by this. When one of his friends arrived, he told him to go inside and ask for a table. This friend is Hispanic, but is white-passing. So what happens? Oh! There are tables available! I know things like this still happen, but when it does, it’s still shocking. Not that it was my type of place to go to anyways, but fuck Twin Peaks Restaurants.
It was my chicken nugget’s birthday a few days ago 🎂 Yup this is a dedication post for my dog because he’s my baby and I actually cried on his birthday when it was pointed out to me that he’s now 40 in dog years and I held on to him in bed while tears were coming down my face 😭😭😭 can you imagine what I would be like when I have my own human child 😅 Anyways, here’s to all the good bois and good girls out there; especially my loaf of bread, @littlelordshiba 💜 For him to be my dog is just kismet. He was born on National Suicide Prevention Day and he saved my life; I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for him. 💜 @chewy it’d be cool if you sponsored us. just saying lololol. just shooting my shot my here :p #shiba #shibainu #shibalove
Happy Mid-Autumn/Moon/Mooncake Festival! 🌝💖 These are from last year and I had filled them with an egg custard, Vietnamese coffee custard, and chocolate custard with chocolate sauce. For Vietnamese people, this day is a holiday mainly for children 👧🏻 It’s the second largest celebration in Vietnam after Tết/Lunar New Year! It was a way for parents to make up for lost time with their children after harvest season. After being away and working hard, they wanted to spend time with their kids as well as celebrate the harvest. It was held under the full moon, which represents fullness and prosperity of life. It’s like Thanksgiving! …with a bit of touch of Halloween?? You’ll see children parading and playing in the streets with their toys and colorful lanterns. Lion dancers also are present for this day! There are so many different tales/lore about this holiday. One involves a bunny which is why I made bunnies to add to these mooncakes. Another popular Viet tale is about a man named Chú Cuội (chú means uncle) who hung on to a magical banyan tree as it floated up to the moon. If you look closely at the full moon, you can see the shadow of a man sitting under a tree. The lanterns are to help light the way to earth for him from the moon. Obviously this is a verrrry much more condensed summarization of the story which I hope you’ll Google to read and learn more about! The moon is beautiful on this day so enjoy it with your loved ones tonight! I’m taking my mama out for a nice dinner too 💜 #midautumnfestival #midautumn #trungthu #mooncake #moonfestival #mooncakefestival #vietnamese

Just gonna post this on my feed instead of stories because I don’t have content right now 😅 But also, this is for @katlieu @subtleasian.baking 💜 She messaged me on Facebook 2 days after she first started the Subtle Asian Baking group on there 2 years ago and that’s how we met. I never look at my Facebook messages so it was a good thing I looked then! Congrats on your book and so proud and happy to see the community you’ve created grow and to be able to grow alongside you! 💜 Products: @halopantry 💜🥰💜🥰 @rootedfare @senbirdtea …you can just search the personal massager yourself lol 💜 Be sure to purchase her book on Amazon! 💜 I’m sorry I couldn’t add captions to this because I don’t know how to since it’s not posted as a reel 🥺
Another MacaNomNom achievement/milestone: I got posted on the official Pixar Instagram today 🥰
I quit being a nail tech to start baking only to start posting nails again 😂 Gonna start a series where whenever I paint my nails something more than just a simple color, I’ll do macarons that will match 🥰 Follow me on Pinterest too if you haven’t already! I know many of you have boards for nails so it’ll be easier for you to pin my nail pics! 💅🏼😘 Link in my bio! You can take the Vietnamese girl out of the nail salon, but you can’t take the nail salon out of the Vietnamese girl 🤣 🍓🍓🍓 Red is one of the more difficult colors to achieve for macarons. To get a gorgeous red without having to use a ton of gel coloring that will mess up the consistency/outcome of your macarons - use @thesugarart’s Master Elites Collection! I swear by that entire collection and use those for my regular macs mainly.
