When I was 12 years old, I went with my mother to her place of work at the time, which was a furniture store. Her superior had a daughter the same age as I was. To keep us busy, my mother arranged for us each to bake a cake that day, We both got our little aprons, mixing bowls, icing sugar, the works and promptly got started.
I whipped up my butter nice and smooth to make my icing sugar and when my counterpart saw my icing sugar (her’s being somewhat lumpy…) tried to grab my bowl and claim as her own. I became so ferocious over my icing sugar that I didn’t give her a chance to get very far with my bowl…
Many years later and the tale of the icing sugar forgotten, but the love of baking ever so gently blooming, a colleague asked if she could order cupcakes from me for her birthday after sampling the one’s I made for my birthday earlier that year. I had no clue how much to charge her…
Soon thereafter, my brother was getting married and I asked my sister-in-law if there was anything I could do for them for their wedding, she suggested the wedding cake.
Well now…. I had never been more proud of anything in my life. My mother baked the cake and I decorated it, if I look back now….oh my, the mistakes that were made, yikes, what a shocker, but I have not looked back since. These were the moments that were the catalysts that propelled me into what Cake on Board is now and is still becoming. Never despise small beginnings they say…
