The baker's training included: European breads, pastries, cinnamon rolls, cookies, cakes, & pies. When graduating from her first cake class, the instructor informed her that she has a talent from God .
In 1975, she had the privilege of teaching cake decorating for Wilton's at the Sanger Harris store located at Preston Center in Dallas, Texas. She demonstrated cakes for Sanger's in downtown Dallas, Preston Center, & Valley View mall. She taught cake decorating previously
in New Orleans, Louisiana and has demonstrated cake decorating at the Infomart (Dallas), Fort Worth Convention Center, several schools, women's clubs, & churches.
She presently teaches cake decorating in the shop. Call for more info.
Barbara decorated a replica (above) of the Ruthe Jackson Center in cake. After making that cake, Grand Prairie's mayor pro-tem, Ruthe Jackson, interviewed Barbara and Karl on her cable show:
What's Happening in Grand Prairie. One of our wedding cakes was featured on the Channel 5's DFW Today Show. Several newspapers have written articles about the bakery. Barbara was interviewed by the Why Guy on Channel 8. The radio stations KCBI 90.9 FM, & KVTT 91.7 FM. also interviewed Barbara.
Barbara had a gingerbread House on a TV commercial with Southwest Airlines & Ronald McDonald House Charities. It aired from California to New York during the holidays. After the press found out, several people wanted her autograph. Imagine that!
Barbara and her husband Karl feel very blessed to serve the people in this area. Come and see our little Historical Landmark shop and sample some of our award winning cake and goodies!
Thanks and may God bless each one of you!
