It’s funny how the smallest of things can make the biggest difference.
When you place an order with us at Buns of Joy, you might be pleasantly surprised that we encourage you to write a little personalised card addressed to your box's (lucky) recipient. You might wonder, "Why include a free personalised card?" What’s the story behind this thoughtful extra touch?
Well, it all comes back to the founding idea on which Buns of Joy was built: Spreading joy from woman to woman is one of the most beautiful and empowering acts we can participate in.
Our mission isn't just about sending boxes of sweet, delicious cinnamon buns across the UK. It’s about nurturing moments of connection and love, whether it's between friends, family, or colleagues.
In a world where we’re constantly bombarded by extravagant gifts, expensive parties, and over-the-top displays, we often forget the power of small, meaningful acts of kindness.
Something as small as a handwritten note can have an impact that no gift card or elaborate present can match. It takes just five minutes, even less, to write something that shows you care, but the feeling it creates can last for weeks, months, or even a lifetime.
Imagine telling your best friend she’s an absolute powerhouse of a woman, or writing a message to your sister, letting her know how proud you are of everything she’s achieved. Or sending a note to your colleague who’s just had a baby, saying “Congratulations, I hope these bring you joy when you’re feeding in the middle of the night.” It’s heartfelt, it’s personal, and, most importantly, it’s genuine.
That’s what makes these little details so special. They take a big, beautiful box of cinnamon buns and transform it into something far more than just a treat. Suddenly, your delivery becomes a vehicle for genuine human connection, a way of saying, "I see you; I appreciate you, and I’m thinking of you." And isn’t that what gifting is really about?
At Buns of Joy, we are passionate about encouraging these kinds of connections. We want to help you find a way to say what’s in your heart, no matter how simple or silly the message may be.
We believe in the power of handwritten words because they bring people closer together in a way that text messages or social media posts just can’t. They show intention, care, and thoughtfulness, the very values that are at the heart of what we do.
So, for us, offering you the chance to write a heartfelt message isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s essential. It’s our way of helping you create an experience that’s personal, meaningful, and memorable. We believe it’s well worth the extra effort, and we hope you do too.
Because at the end of the day, it’s those small moments, those little touches of thoughtfulness, that make life truly sweet. ❤️
