JIB Crafts: Florence Cakes & Confectioneries.. a taste of class
12:29
Beautiful cake designs lures one to take a taste of the cake. I have often wondered if a nice looking cake guarantees a delicious cake, what do you think?
In a weird kinda way, I prefer the icing to the cake, except ofcourse it's a chocolate cake. I totally love chocolate cakes.
*daydreaming about chocolate cakes*
*sighs*
Well, today is all about cakes; so join me as we read the story of the "CakEntrepreneur", Ms Damilola Koyejo of Florence Cakes and Confectioneries pleasuring us all with a taste of class.
Introduction

What we do?

Story so far?
When I was learning Baking (Catering work generally), I didn't have plans to make money from it, I learnt it out of curiosity. I learnt during my IT industrial training in the year 2012
I can't forget my first day of learning, my boss and others were dressing a cake and what was rolling in my mind was ' Can i know all this?'. I later found myself doing everything in a perfect way. I showed commitment, creativity and interest. After a while of learning, I decided to make it a business due to the compliments and appreciation I get from my parents and people around me.
Handling Challenges?
When I baked my first cake, it was hard because of inappropriate measurement of ingredients, so I took my time to make a great a fondant design to make up for it. After that, I steadily learnt the right measurements as proportional to the size of the cake the client wants.

| First Cake, After just 2 weeks of training |
I didn't really face any challenges during my training. With the help of a lady Bukola, who kept giving me hard designs and challenging me to do more than I originally did. She'd go like "You can do this, Dammy". She gave me the courage and I was determined, committed and focused to know it and right now, I am confident and proud of all my cake designs.
Motivation?
My mother motivates me most because she is a caterer and seeing clients happy with the baking and cake designs also keeps me going.
Sleepless nights became a norm for me whenever I had lots of orders to fill. I also have a trainee who delivers the cakes for me, so that sort of helps.
Advice to upcoming entrepreneurs?
Stay focused and show commitment in whatever you find yourselves doing in order to get a better results or achieve more.
