lovely little find + giveaway


I first stumbled upon Cakewalk Desserts through a Pinterest image, the image above to be exact! Once I saw those adorable little pie pops I KNEW I had to feature Cakewalk Desserts on my little blog. When I reached out to Andrea, the owner of the lovely little dessert company she was more than ecstatic about working together, and so incredibly friendly! 



When I asked Andrea to give me a brief history on herself and Cakewalk Desserts she had this to say;
"Cakewalk Desserts was formed in the summer of 2010 as a bit of a side project, however soon after I realized the demand for these little treats, this side project became a full-time love affair! For as long as I can remember, I have loved to bake! My grandmother and her mother were both avid cooks and from the time I could reach the countertops I was always lending a helping hand."

"My education and professional experience started out in Interior Design, however I feel that God has given me a creative eye and to use that gift in any area of design makes me a happy camper! As long as I can share my creations with the world, I have a smile on my face!"

"I think we all find ourselves at a point in life where we know exactly what to do with the gifts God has bestowed upon us. Thanks to all my friends and family for believing in me and supporting Cakewalk. A special thank you to my wonderful husband, Ian, for encouraging me to go after my dreams and for all the foot rubs after a long day of baking!"

- Andrea Smetona -
