Made with Love and Hope

Made with Love and Hope was created to honor the memory of our nephew, Matthew Lane Hobby. Thank you for joining us in this mission.

We make the most delicious cookies, brownies, cakes, seasonal baked goods and more! 🍪 We offer local pickup and shipping. At Made with Love and Hope, we understand the pain and devastation that suicide can bring to families and communities. That's why we have made it our mission to help raise awareness and prevent suicide through the power of baking. Our founder/owner was inspired to start this organization after the tragic loss of his nephew, Matthew Lane Hobby. Matthew was a gifted teenage musician who struggled with depression and anxiety, yet he always had a heart for helping others and had a smile that could brighten anyone's day. When Matthew passed away by suicide at just 14 years old, his family and friends were left heartbroken and grappling with the question of why. It was in the aftermath of this tragedy that our founder decided to channel his grief into something positive. He began baking and selling cookies to raise money for suicide prevention organizations and Made with Love and Hope was born. Today, we continue to bake with purpose, using our delicious treats to spread awareness about suicide prevention and raise funds for nonprofit organizations that support mental health. We believe that every life is precious and that by working together, we can help prevent suicide and support those who are struggling with mental illness.

There’s a song by Chris Young called “Drowning.”

The first time I heard it, I felt every word. It’s about that kind of missing someone that comes and goes like the ocean — it’s always there, but it’s gentle one moment and crashing the next.

That’s what grief feels like.
Some days it’s quiet… and some nights, it pulls you under. 🌊

I miss my Little Man (my nickname for Matthew) every day — but love always finds a way to rise back to the surface. It shows up in the kitchen, in laughter, in hope, and in every sweet reminder of the life he lived and the light he left behind. 💙

Grief doesn’t follow rules. It rises and falls with its own rhythm.
If you’re missing someone tonight, know that you’re not alone — and it’s okay to let the waves come.

Forever my Little Man. 💙
