Sonali: Hi! My name is Sonali and I am in high school. Ever since I was young, I have always been fascinated by cakes. Even today, some of my most precious childhood memories are about the immense joy at first sight of magnificent cakes on my birthdays. Inspired by this while growing up, I too wanted to learn how to cake such memorable cakes to create special moments for family and friends. What started out as a hobby in middle school baking simple cakes with decorations, evolved into a deep passion as my confidence grew that I could translate my vision into any kind of cake possible. By the time I entered high school, I could consistently bake fully custom cakes on-demand to celebrate family occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries. Seeing this, my friends asked if I could bake custom cakes for them as well, which gave me an opportunity to pursue my cake baking passion multiple times a month. Today, I bake cakes for a cause – to raise awareness for environmental sustainability, to fundraise for COVID relief, and to deliver smiles to kids in my local community who desire highly customizable cakes. I’m self-taught and all concepts, food presentations, and photography is done by me.
