The cupcake that says goodnight better than counting sheep ever could
This is what happens when bedtime stops being boring. We took Oregon-grown lavender (gentler than its French cousins), paired it with real vanilla, and shaped it like a cupcake because even sleep routines deserve to be special. Each one is topped with actual lavender buds that we place by hand, because automation has no place in bedtime stories.
Drop this into your evening bath and watch it transform into something between aromatherapy and alchemy. The lavender essential oil does what lavender does best: tells your nervous system to calm down already. The vanilla softens everything, making it comfort rather than medicine. Meanwhile, kaolin clay draws out the day's chaos, sweet almond oil makes your skin unreasonably soft, and those lavender buds float around like tiny purple promises of better sleep.
"Oregon lavender is different. It's not as sharp as French, not as camphor-y as Spanish. It's softer, rounder, like it absorbed some of our rain and decided to be gentle. Mixed with real vanilla, it becomes the scent equivalent of being tucked in. This is the bath you take when you need the day to be over in the best possible way."
Why You'll Love The Oregon Lavender & Vanilla Bean Tub Cake
- Oregon lavender is scientifically proven to improve sleep quality, and ours is locally grown and gentler than imported varieties
- Real lavender buds float in your bath like nature's confetti, but calming instead of exciting
- The vanilla isn't just there for sweetness; it actually enhances lavender's calming properties through scent synergy
- Kaolin clay and sweet almond oil work while you soak, so you emerge soft, clean, and ready for sheets
- Shaped like a cupcake because self-care should never feel like homework
The Ritual
This is an evening-only situation. Run your bath warmer than usual; heat helps the lavender release. Drop in your cupcake and watch those hand-placed buds float free while everything fizzes into purple-vanilla clouds. The scent fills your bathroom immediately. Sink in and do absolutely nothing for at least fifteen minutes. Let the lavender work on your brain while the clay and oils work on your skin. When you drain the tub, those lavender buds go too. No cleanup, just the lingering scent of calm and skin so soft your sheets will feel different.
Key Ingredients
- Oregon Lavender Essential Oil
- Locally grown, gentler than French varieties. Nature's way of saying "go to sleep already."
- Real Lavender Buds
- Hand-placed on each cupcake. They float, they're pretty, they're biodegradable, they're perfect.
- Vanilla Bean Fragrance
- Phthalate-free sweetness that turns medicinal lavender into comfort food for your nose.
- Kaolin Clay & Apricot Kernel Oil
- The clay pulls out stress (metaphorically), the oil puts in moisture (literally).
Complete Your Ritual
This cupcake works best with the full bedtime production. Dim lights. Phone on silent (better yet, in another room). Maybe some herbal tea waiting on your nightstand. Definitely the boring book you've been meaning to finish. After your bath, resist the urge to do "just one more thing." The lavender only works if you let it. This is particularly perfect for Sunday nights when Monday anxiety kicks in, or any night when your brain won't stop making lists. Consider it permission to stop being productive. Even better: make it a weekly appointment with yourself. Thursday night? Lavender cupcake night. Your sleep schedule will thank you.
Ready to turn bedtime into something you actually look forward to? Sweet dreams await.

Why Oregon lavender specifically?Β Oregon lavender is actually different from the French lavender everyone knows. It's softer, less sharp, more rounded. Maybe it's our rain, maybe it's our soil, but Oregon lavender is gentler while still being effective. We source ours locally, which means it's fresher and supports our neighboring farms. French lavender is lovely for perfume. Oregon lavender is better for bedtime. It's the difference between a lullaby and an alarm clock.
Will this actually help me sleep better?Β Lavender has been clinically studied more than almost any other essential oil, and the research consistently shows it improves sleep quality. The warm bath itself helps too - your body temperature drops when you get out, which signals sleep time to your brain. Add the ritual of intentional self-care, and you've got three sleep aids in one cupcake. We can't promise you'll sleep like a baby (babies actually sleep terribly), but you'll definitely sleep better than without it.
Is this safe for kids' bedtime baths?Β Yes, with supervision (because it looks very edible). The lavender is gentle enough for children and can actually help establish a calming bedtime routine. Kids love watching the lavender buds float around, and parents love that bedtime becomes less of a battle. Just use less for smaller tubs and smaller humans. Many parents tell us this became the "special Sunday night bath" that kids actually look forward to. Just remember: not edible, no matter how much it looks like dessert.
