Pastry Comforts

Baking has always been my passion. The word baking itself has femininity in it that makes you want to explore and taste all the possibilities that sugar can do! In my hometown in Oklahoma, I was known in our neighborhood to bake the best pastries. I have two kids who are all addicted to my chunky chocolate chip cookies, which has a tad bit of similarity of Nestlé’s Toll House Cookies. Not boasting or anything, but that is what they all say.

It may sound like a cliché but I bake my pastries with a secret ingredient called love. I met my husband during our culinary days. Yes. He is also a chef. We met at one of the top schools of Le Cordon Bleu. He studied and pursued Asian Culinary while I mastered in Pastry. My husband travels around the Continent because he is a Chef consultant to many five star hotels. As for me, I started my own small pastry shop. Before my pastry shop, I only accepted orders for special occasions but a lot of my friends convinced me to open my own small pastry shop.

Right now, my shop has five tables and a comfy couch. I have a lot of loyal customers who come in for coffee and cookies every morning. I also have students who studies at my pastry shop. And also the businessmen that uses the Free Wi-fi that I offer in my shop. Being in this millennium, I know that internet is an important factor to business and education. I was shocked and amazed that the shop where I order my ingredients just recently launched their website for their clients’ convenience. Being one of the major suppliers for bakeries, they found an easier way for order processing. They told me to check out their website and try ordering online. To my surprise, there was a pop-out chat asking me if I needed assistance! Imagine that! I thought that it was computer generated but when I asked the owner, she told me that they were outsourcing their chat supports. I don’t know where they come from but they were very efficient. It made things a lot easier and faster. Being in a city that has wi-fi everywhere, I know I have to be a part of the internet world.
