Cake and Cake pops : Irene's Dessert Table
A year before relocating - The decision was already made for a home based business.
Online, I spotted a Cake Expo in the San Diego area - I strongly felt the pull to attend. My goal was to meet as many people as I can, introduce myself and hand out my information. Carmen, was one of those beautiful, creative persons that I met that day. She was there displaying a Tablescape. We connected and exchanged our contact information. This was the beginning of an amazing and supportive friendship with many creative collaborations and more new friends.
Pictured above and below is just one event Carmen designed.
