About Me

Nice to meet you!

I was just like every mother out there. As the kids got older so did the expenses. A custom cake for 6 kids each year was not in the budget. Planning parties was fun! First birthdays had to be over the top and one to remember. Well, at least a party that would please the in-laws and make a great impression.

​

So I decided to give it a go! As a home baker, the fundamentals were pretty easy to master. I developed my technique working with fondant, molding chocolate and you guessed it frosting!

Being a single mother at that time was pretty rough. I started working for a few Walmart's Stores in Fabrics & Crafts and as a Cake Decorator for approximately 12 years total. 

​

It paid the bills but I just was not happy with the way some stores treated their associates and myself.

After my brush with death as a cervical cancer survivor everything changed. I realized I was wasting my life away stuck in retail working long hours and even came in on my days off.  

Missing out on my friends and family.

I made the decision not to go back to Walmart.

It was time I worked for myself and finally live my dreams.

I wanted to bring to the table what the commercial stores refused to do and change the cake industry based on the need of what each customer needed.

​

I did not always make cakes. My medium in the art world would be a vast array of applied designs, in the art of clay work, painting, and freehand drawing. I also sew costumes and make the props for my kid's costumes, everyday wear and just something fun to make and sale on eBay once and awhile.

​

It was just my time to shine. So here I am! Hi, I am Josie how can I help you plan for your special day?
