I was born in the Big Apple – New York City and moved to Florida in 2007. I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit and envisioned owning a lucrative business. Prior to having my first child, I knew nothing about cooking. I bought cookbooks, became a member at Costco’s and BJ’s, and begin experimenting in the kitchen. Not
only did I learn that I loved to cook, I also learned that America loves to eat! I started baking cookies and cakes for a local Head Start Program my children attended; and I would help my grandmother make sweet potato pie for the holidays. I cooked so much that family events and holidays became a regular at my house. People loved my food! My fascination with cupcakes unraveled in a dream. I baked a scrumptious cookies n cream cupcake and a caramel apple pie cupcake. I woke up excited and ready to create my masterpiece. I purchased a dainty cupcake carrier and toted my creation to work. I received raving responses, one person said,
“These cupcakes are so good, it make me wanna slap my momma.” Another person said,” Oh my God, it has real apples inside.”
Inspired, I begin baking cupcakes on a weekly basis, creating an assorted array of cupcakes filled with fruit compotes or cream filling and buttercream frosting. Since then I’ve been told by family, friends, and former co-workers that it’s time I start my cupcake business. Well.... here I am – Welcome to Tamu CupCakery, where every batch is made from scratch!
