What sort of items do you make? We make
homemade baked goods, specializing in southern comfort foods
and decorative petite treats. We can cater a dessert bar/table
to coordinate any color or event theme.
When and how did you learn your craft? Baking
and catering is pretty much a family tradition. We come from a family of
foodies, both men and women. Our older family members were very
instrumental in shaping our southern culinary skills. However, we developed our decorating skills
through classes, sharing creative ideas and a lot of experimenting over the
years.
Where do you get your inspiration
from?
We draw our design inspiration from various artistic sources;
decorating classes, Pintrest, cooking/decorating shows, etc. We also love to experiment
and create delicious works of edible art. However, our primary focuses is on
taste and quality.
How did you get started doing this as
a business? When my mom lived in FL, she always sold her baked
goods at events, to friends, co-workers, local churches and businesses.
When she would visit me during holidays, she had actually
developed a seasonal clientele for her baked goods. By the time she
retired and relocated here, I had become a full time homeschool mom.
Baking has always been a shared passion of ours and with the flexibility
of both our schedules, starting a licensed home-based bakery was a natural
transition.
Do you have any advice for other
crafters/artisans just starting out?
My advice to any crafters/artisans out there would be to choose something
you're both skilled and passionate about and turn it into a business. A
mentor once told me, “Your business or career should be something you
enjoy so much you're willing to do it for free, but you do it so well people
are willing to pay you.”
