GiGi Butler, Founder of GiGi's Cupcakes, "The Secret Ingredient"

As a young child, GiGi knew that if she wanted to succeed, she had to work hard and offer a service that people wanted to buy. At age 7, she sold eggs out of her little red wagon to neighbors. At age 15, she bought cleaning supplies and started a cleaning service out of her rural California home.

When she moved to Nashville at 19, she had her heart set on becoming a country music star. Cleaning houses by day to support herself for over a decade, she realized that God had other plans for her. If she couldn't be a successful singer, she decided she would grow a business that she could be proud of.

An extraordinary baker throughout her life, she decided to open a cupcake shop with all the money she could pull together. With the help and support of her family, she was able to open her first store in a prime Nashville location. The news of her cupcakes spread quickly, and the franchise became a huge success. Now, in "The Secret Ingredient," GiGi reveals how her failure led her to explore her passion for baking and how she became a successful businesswoman. With spunk, humor, and insight, she weaves her hard-won wisdom and business acumen into the fun, fascinating, and instructive stories of her life. Each inspirational chapter concludes with treasured family recipes, desserts, and other savory favorites.

GiGi can also discuss her upcoming devotional that shares the importance Jesus Christ holds as the KING of hospitality in our lives. Through the new devotional, GiGi will take readers step-by-step through stories where Christ opened Himself up in "hospitable" ways to ordinary people and how we can do the same. The devotional will also include new recipes from the Queen of Cupcakes.

Saturday, JUNE 7: Ricky Dickson, One Scoop at a Time: Stories & Lessons From Fear to Faith

Sarah Doran is a U.S. Army aviation veteran, author, and homeschooling mama.  Creating engaging, educational children's literature to authentically honor and represent military families is her goal and passion as an author.  Sarah's memories of growing up as a military child and her service in the Army as a Blackhawk helicopter mechanic and crew chief inspire her stories.

The Peppered Sky (2023), Sarah's first children's book, recently won the 2025 Eric Hoffer da Vinci Eye Award, the 2024 American Legacy Book Award Finalist, and the 2023 Best Book Award Finalist.  Sarah's second title, Sleeping Giants (2024), was recently published and highlights the work of military women in aviation, Army helicopters, and the imagination and resiliency of military children.  Sarah's military service includes two deployments, one in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (2009-2010) and one in support of Operation Enduring Freedom (2011-2012) as part of the 1st Cavalry Division, Fort Hood/Cavazos, Texas.  Sarah hopes to continue writing and publishing children's books to positively reflect military family life across military branches and open a window of opportunity for readers with curiosity about the Armed Forces. #allamericanbookclub #May
