Bite-Sized Bliss
Meet The Dessert Mom Of Keller.
As one of 11 children, Naomi Hale developed a love for baking while watching her mother bring recipes to life. Now a “Dessert Mom” herself, Naomi shares a lifelong passion with others through her business, Crafty As Hale.
Cake balls and pops are easily Crafty As Hale’s most famed menu items, taking anywhere from 45 minutes to five hours to make. Specialty flavors include Circus Animal Cookie, confetti cake, Reese’s, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Fruity Pebbles and king cake, while classic flavors range from lemon and strawberry to red velvet and butter pecan.
And that’s just on the inside — eye-catching designs such as Carroll Dragon graduation hats, Barbie and Winnie The Pooh honey pots have graced all of Naomi’s cake pops at birthdays, graduations, holiday parties, baby showers, weddings and more.
“[The community’s response] has definitely boosted my confidence with expanding my designs and not being afraid to try new things out,” Naomi says.
The cakes may be popular, but it’s not the only menu favorite. Crafty As Hale also offers chocolate-dipped sweets such as madeleines, Rice Krispy Treats, s'mores, pretzel rods, strawberries and Oreos for more flavor and texture varieties that are sure to satisfy anyone’s craving.
“The desserts make a really easy gift-giving item,” Naomi says.
Naomi believes everyone deserves thoughtful gestures, especially in the form of desserts. Naomi often donates her desserts to local events, fundraisers and law enforcement and even holds randomized giveaways online.
“Everybody loves desserts,” Naomi explains. “Everybody can use desserts, so I like being able to help others out as far as events go.”
As word spreads and communities connect over Crafty As Hale, one thing is certain – Naomi’s talent extends beyond taste and touches lives.
