Welcome

So I finally decided to create my own blog to share my experience in the cake world. Thank you for all those who have supported me and promoted my work ... I truly love you guys and if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have any cakes to make :)

I guess I will start by giving a bit of background about myself ...

My name is Jenna and I started baking at a young age due to my anaphylaxis (deadly) allergy to dairy and nut products. Growing up, I was hardly able to eat desserts so I decided to bake my own. I began reinventing recipes substituting dairy & nut products with all new ingredients.

I graduated in 2008 from Rutgers University with a degree in Chemical Engineering and started my career in IT & Business Management Consulting. Like many others in this economy, I was laid off. While searching for a new job, I saw an add for Cake Decorating Class at a local AC Moore and decided to sign up to kill time ... and I was HOOKED! Little did I know I would get a job the same week.

Since March 2010, I have been cake decorating and absolutely LOVE it! I never knew all the possibilities one can do. Every cake I complete is a new challenge, it has been quite an experience but I have learned so much. I am happy to share my thoughts, ideas, new findings, and of course my cakes with everyone.

Please follow my blog so you can see my artwork and growth. Be sure to leave a comment so I know you stopped by!

With a dash of sugar,
Jenna
