In this episode of Coulee Region Cooks, host Courtney Vaaler welcomes Stacey Donaldson, owner of HuDo Treats, a home-based cottage bakery in Dresbach. Stacey shares how she turned her love of baking into a side business, drawing on her previous bakery experience and support from her family. The name Hoodoo combines her maiden and married names—not a reference to spooky treats, though the Halloween season has inspired some fun creations.

Stacey specializes in cakesicles: homemade cake shaped like a popsicle, dipped in chocolate or almond bark, and decorated by hand. She explains how her cold-mixing method keeps the cake tender without making it overly sweet, and talks about flavors such as cookies and cream, pistachio, pumpkin spice, strawberry shortcake, and her Halloween-inspired Spooktacular. With new offerings like cookies, mini cakes, and handheld pies in the works, Stacey is always dreaming up something delicious.

Listeners will also hear about HuDo Treats’ welcoming, self-serve stand, where customers can browse the daily menu, check ingredient labels, and pay with cash or mobile options. Stacey shares how to find the stand, place special orders, and suggest new flavors. Tune in for a sweet conversation about baking with imagination, family support, and creating small treats that bring big smiles!
