About Us
MY STORY
I have been decorating cakes for over 20 years. Several years after I first started decorating cakes, I decided to take that passion a step further and became a Wilton Cake Decorating Instructor at a Michael's Arts & Craft Store where after several months of teaching one of my students got me an interview to be a cake decorator at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino. This led to a career path of creating wedding cakes, occasional cakes, restaurant specific cakes and sweet treats.
During my time at Mandalay Bay, I took a promotion to Hubert Keller's Fleur dy Lys as Assistant Pastry Chef. I then continued my career at the JW Marriott in Summerlin, Nevada.
After moving here to Winter Haven, I decided to take all my knowledge, passion, and share it with the community.
My Pastry Experience:
Pastry Chef - Doubletree by Hilton Asheville, NC
Cake Decorator - JW Marriott Summerlin, NV
Asst. Pastry Chef - Fleur de Lys Las Vegas, NV
Cake Decorator & Baker - Mandalay Bay Resort Las Vegas, NV
Pastry - Payard Patisserie Caesars Palace Las Vegas, NV
