Because this Mindy Cake right here..is the TRUTH!!

Thanks to everyone for their constructive criticism on the layout of the blog. I made some major changes...umm I guess I ODed on the background pic of myself!! (But can you blame me..Hehe) I know everyone is over me moving around the country like an aimless Gypsy, but its me..I am who I am! Jasmindy the Gypsy!!  I want to share what's next on the agenda. Sooo, I am going to take this baking thing and Mindy Cakes to the next level. I am moving to Arizona in a little over a month to attend the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts. I am doing a year long program to receive my certification in Baking and Pastry Arts. Everyone knows my cooking skills are SUSPECT but I bake as it is a Blessing from God!! I am excited...aren't all of you? :-)

My friends and family (especially my Big Brother & Sisters) always encourage me to go all in! Reason being: Mmmmmm This Mindy Cake right here..is the Truth!! (As I have been told a trillion million times..you know I tend to exaggerate but you get the picture)

Here are a few pics from my first event, Los Angeles' Taste of Soul in 2010...Mindy Cakes sold out in 2 hours! It was a great, stressful, sleepless, successful event! A million thanks you to Kasha & Tamika for helping set up and sell all those cupcakes!!! I really REALLY could NOT have done without their help. (I was sleep walking after making 150 cupcakes in 2 days) Also to all my wonderful friends in L.A. that stop by to show their support!

A SPECIAL ENORMOUS THANK YOU to my mother for helping me start-up my business. She financed my Beautiful Baby Blue Kitchen Aid Mixer and all my supplies to make this event happen. My mom always encourages me and believes in my gift even when I am ready to drop kick the damn mixing bowl because I am O-V-E-R- IT! LOL..sleepless nights of baking can make you feel defeated at times. BUT then the abundance of "OMG this is sooooo freakin good" praise showers down and I forget all about being sleep deprived. At those moments I am so very thankful that my mama is not the only one who thinks this cupcake or cookie RIGHT HERE  is the truth ;-)

Sugary regards,
JasMindy
