Meet The Baker – Candace Powell
“When I was a little girl, my Aunt Winnie would make the most beautiful and delicious birthday cakes for my parties! So when I saw my local craft store offering basic cake decorating classes, I thought it would be fun to learn. What started as a hobby quickly turned into a full-time cake business! My cake designs are clean, soft and romantic, but my from-scratch cake flavors resembling good home cooking are what I feel helps me to stand out. A wedding cake needs to be equally delicious as it is beautiful!

My favorite part is standing back after I’ve placed the flowers on the cake and taking in the beauty of the entire room: seeing all the details and the couple’s vision come together perfectly!”
