Got honey? Want to help the bees suffering from Colony Collapse Disorder? Start a hive or two. Bees pollinate 30% of your food! They travel up to 5 miles in search of nectar and pollinating. Thank them by starting your own hives. Your gardens, your neighbor’s gardens, and your local farmer will thank you. And…you get your own honey.

I’m Kimberley

Welcome to Champagne & Buttercream!

I’m a passionate home cook and baker who finds joy in creating farm-to-table meals, decadent cakes and treats, and savoring a glass of good champagne.

For me, champagne represents celebration and the sparkling moments that make life special, while buttercream reflects my love for crafting sweet, comforting treats. Together, they perfectly capture the heart of this blog – a space where food, creativity, and life’s little luxuries come together.
