The Wild Crumb

Welcome to Potion Hour — our weekly moment where the kitchen turns into a tiny bubbling apothecary and we embrace our inner cozy chaos witch (or forest gremlin, no judgement here).

This is the hour where ginger bugs stretch, bottles hiss with secrets, and humble fruit turns into sparkling mischief. We brew not because we need soda — but because it feels good to coax magic from simple things.
Bubbles earned, not bought.

So tie up your apron (or don’t), stir your potions like you’re whispering to tree spirits, and let the jars fizz with the same uncontained energy you’re carrying into the weekend.

Ready to brew trouble and sweetness in equal measure?
Let’s get fizzy.
