Hi! I’m Mayra.

Hi, I'm Mayra.

I was born in Cd. Juarez, Chihuahua in Mexico and I currently live in Urbandale, IA. I share my lovely home with my dear husband Matt and adorable children Lillie and Noah.

I am not ashamed to admit that I am self-taught in what I do. I went to college (UTEP to be specific) to be a programmer and somehow I ended up developing a love for creating sweet treats.

Along with two other friends, we opened a small confection business in Mexico. It gave me the opportunity to learn and create wonderful pieces made out of chocolate and traditional Mexican desserts such as Chocoflan and Tres Leches cakes. A few years later and now living in Iowa, my passion turned into baking cakes and more.

For over six years now, I have been fascinated with making sweets of all kinds. Although I can create a wide assortment of treats, I have been trying to focus on Cookies, Cakes and Cupcakes. I believe that the experience I gained from learning how to work with chocolate gives me an advantage to create unique and detailed pieces of edible work.

There are so many more things that I want to try and would love to learn, all to offer you the best experience in high quality treats.

Even though what I do is very time consuming, I still very much love what I do. I can’t see myself doing anything else at the moment than being a wife, a mom and a grown up obsessed with creating sweet treats.
