About Debra


Just a couple of short years ago, I started making little minions out of store bought Twinkies! That was my first experience with trying to create a dessert that was not a typical made-with-a-box mix, although those certainly work in a pinch! After my family gushed over how incredibly cute my Twinkie minions were, I felt excited and started challenging myself and began designing more difficult desserts, with more creative decorations and a wider list of ingredients. I would post my creations on Facebook and bring my desserts to work to share. I received a lot of praise and encouragement. I kept getting told that I should "start my own business", but I just wanted to bake for fun! I continued to practice and hone my baking skills, experimenting with unique flavor combinations and using fresh fruits and herbs in my baking.

Fast forward to January 2017. I finally took the advice of my family, friends, and co-workers - I started my own home bakery business. It has been so exciting to build this from the ground up and cannot wait to see where I can go! I am elated that I can continue baking, challenging myself, and sharing my desserts and treats throughout the El Paso area. Baking and creating beautiful desserts is something I am very passionate about and look forward to sharing my creations with you.
