I love what I do. Sign up for culinary school and learn the art of baking and creating sugar art. This has been a wonderful career, and I make good money.

I started baking cakes and cookies, making candy apples and other sweet treats as a hobby. I have never had any formal training. I took a class at a craft store and have loved it ever since.

As a Black woman in this industry, I have really been blessed to share my gift with everyone. My cakes and sweet treats make people happy. I enjoy seeing smiles for all occasions including birthdays and weddings.

My most fulfilling moment has been teaching other ladies how to make cakes, candy apples, and cookies by hosting classes. It has been fulfilling to see them make what they have been taught, so I can share with customers, family, and friends.
