My love for baking began when my daughter Lauren started Kindergarten. I wanted to find new ways to surprise her in her lunchbox by sending a special treat. I would always try out different recipes especially cookies that where cut out in cute shapes. She would always come home with a smile on her face which made me a happy baker.

As the years passed I baked for family and friends and got great responses. In 2003 I became a Wilton Instructor and taught cake decorating classes. Soon after I went to Cosmetology School. I worked in a Salon just three months after I finished school and it was then it hit me that baking was my true passion.

I went on to study Baking & Pastry in October 2006 at the Art Institute of Houston. I continued to make pastries and sell them to local people. After graduating with honors I knew I could make this worthwhile. From day one I wondered what it would be like to own my own cupcake shop and now my dream has been fullfilled.

Buttercream Babies is officially here! The inspiration for the name is owed to my mom. One day she said to me, " You should call the cupcake shop Buttercream Babies". After all you love buttercream and babies. I thought to myself that is perfect. My sweet tooth could never resist a cake with Buttercream icing and I always had a thing for cute little babies.

Remember to always eat dessert first!
