It's Jo Cake

My passion for baking started back in elementary school when baking Nestle tollhouse cookies at my cousin's house during school breaks. After many middle school bake sales & being inspired from the many baking competition shows on Food Network, I became Wilton-certified through a cake decorating course at my local A.C. Moore store, and was a cake decorating instructor for a local summer program for several summers. In December 2015, I started It's Jo Cake.  

🏆 Awards

Every year, I participate in an annual cake decorating competition called the Contra Costa Cake Show. I love to fuse my love for engineering with cake.
