BakeUp

Hello, my name is Priscilla Chavez, and I am the owner of BakeUp! Baking and cake decorating have always been a love of mine since I was a child. I used to love baking with my grandmothers, so when I was old enough to join them in the kitchen, I leaped at the chance! Grandma Chavez loved to bake cakes, while Grandma Acosta loved to bake cookies and loaves. They only let me do one thing: combine the ingredients, but I enjoyed every minute of it! I persuaded my Grandma Acosta to enroll me in a cake designing class at Michaels when I was 12 years old, and that was the start of my cake decorating career! Throughout middle and high school, I got a few orders here and there, but for the most part, I ignored this passion. I didn't decide to start cooking cakes again until I was in college. I recognized it was time for a job about a year into college, but the only job I wanted was working in a bakery, so I decided, why not turn my hobby into a profession? That's just what I did! I started BakeUp and started getting a lot of business right away. I'm excited to see where BakeUp and I will go in the future!
