Everyone has a story. You may think your story holds no relevance but to other's it my resonate in ways you never fathom.
This is what I've come to experience when asked "how did you get started doing cakes?" Twice this week I've shared "my story" with customers while purchasing cakes. Today I would like to share that same story with you.
I have been baking since the age of eight. When everyone in the neighborhood was outside playing in the summer I was inside with my grandmother baking due to my server allergies. In the ninth grade, I dropped band and took culinary arts as an elective a class that was only offered to juniors and seniors and excelled in the class. Ever since then, I have been putting my own uniqueness on cakes, cookies, pastries and breads.
After losing my job as a commercial banker in 2009, I decided to perfect my craft and took cake decorating classes at Michaels Craft Store in Merrillville IN. There I earned three certificates and was offered an internship to work with the class instructor. After completing a cake that resembles a Facebook Page, requests to make other custom and sculptured cakes were taken and my skills and creativity were put to the test. In June on 2010 I decided to embark onto a new career and incorporated Angel Cakes, LLC.
So there it is. My story. It's my affirmation that dreams can and do come true. No matter if you work at them or if they divinely ordered.
