ABOUT US!!

I love creating cakes so delightful that the owners find them hard to cut up! I studied accounting and usually joke that I am a chartered accountant by profession but a confectioner by calling! I strongly believe that I have been blessed with a divine creativity to bake and decorate cakes so unique that they are a sight to behold.
Baking started for me as a hobby way back in secondary school but it eventually became a career in 1996 when I decided to pack up my accounting files and roll out my spatulas!
It has been a wonderful and challenging journey with pleasant occurrences along the way.
In 1999 I won 1st prize for the "Best in Show Award in Sugarcraft" at the BCHC fair with my "SEKERE" cake.
In 2002 and 2003 I had the privilege of demonstrating stringwork techniques as a cake demonstrator at the annual convention of the International Cake Exploration Societié (ICES) in the United States of America.
I have also had the opportunity of demonstrating at local cake exhibitions within Nigeria.
Another passion I have is teaching others the art of sugarcraft and to date hundreds of women (and men!) have undergone our training courses on baking and cake decoration.
