Araceli's story
I am Araceli, an immigrant from Peru and a single mother with a passion for baking that has evolved into an entrepreneurial career.
My journey began when I decided to learn how to make cakes to surprise my little son Santiago on his birthday, since I could not find a cake that could express in design and flavor, what I wanted for him. I wanted to give him something special, with a design theme with characters that each year was different as he was growing up, I was 100% dedicated to make each birthday a dream for him and turning into me, a passion for themed cakes, so I decided to dive into the world of pastry, learning and growing every day of new techniques, flavors, designs,
What began as a gesture of love became a true passion.
