I am a small island girl with BIG dreams of owning a chain of pastry shops starting here on the little island of Barbados. Cooking for me is one of greatest way of expressing my creativity. I love to try new recipes, add my own touch to them and share the joy with family and friends. What I love the most, however, and my family can attest to this, is Cheesecake.
My favourite dessert to order when I eat out is cheesecake, any shape, any size, any flavour. So one day in my Food and Nutrition Class I asked my teacher if she had any recipes for cherry cheesecake and she gave me the simplest cheesecake recipe I would ever come across. From that very day I did cheesecakes for family functions and just so we could have that nice creamy dessert whenever we wanted.
In my senior year, I started baking cheesecakes and selling the slices to my friends. Before long, the demand for my cheesecakes spread throughout the entire senior class and my lunchtime was cut in half to accommodate my loyal customers.
It didn't take that much longer before a couple of my classmates wanted whole cheesecakes to take home and share the joy with their families. I sat back and thought to myself, 'I could be onto something here.'
From that moment up until this day I have tried my hand at some exotic cheesecakes that have flavours of all of our favourite desserts; Black Forest, Bailey's, Coffee Creme Brulee, just to name a few.
This blog is an outlet for me to showcase my talents and creations in the cheesecake arena. I will also walk you through some trade secrets to make it easier for you to make restaurant quality desserts in the comfort of your own kitchen.
