...I thought it all started in 2021, but the rise of PuddnPlace started much earlier than that. When in daycare, my father brought my class donuts every week. When in 5th grade, my mom helped me to start a candy business. My aunt loved me as if I were her own, and she gave of herself to me. In different ways, they all instilled in me the value of having something to offer.

​

The thought of  "having something to offer" has stayed with me throughout my life. In 2020, when the pandemic hit, I used my newly discovered love of baking as an opportunity to bring a smile to the faces of those around me. When my unique take on classic desserts began to circulate in my community, I realized that I not only wanted to, but I was obligated to expand my reach, and PuddnPlace was born in 2021!

​

For me, baking is a reminder that we must be willing to offer the sweetest parts of ourselves to others. While  I am  the sole owner of PuddnPlace, this story is not just my own. This is our story!
