A Little About Me

After growing up making all the sweets at every family gathering and holiday, I fell in love with desserts. I chose to attend the Culinary Arts program at Brigham Young University Idaho. After graduating I have worked at various jobs making cakes and other goodies. The most recent being the Pastry Chef for the Oxford University Club, Taylor Grocery Special Events Catering in Oxford, Mississippi, and now my mom's farm-Fiddlin Rooster Farm- in Water Valley, MS. I have many family recipes and several of my own that I enjoy making and would love to make them for you.

I got the wonderful opportunity to help my sister this past week with her groom's cake. She hired someone else to make the wedding cake since we would be too busy with pictures during the time it needed to be delivered. And it was easier to move this one around without it getting damaged. I worked all day Tuesday baking the layers. They were flavored just like the candy, cherry, strawberry, lemon, and orange. Then on Wednesday we stacked and iced the huge thing. I then turned over the reigns to Christie and Jamie to finish and decorate. It turned out so great! Thank you so much Christie for letting me help make your day beautiful for you and Adam!




My mom and I worked this past year to get her kitchen set up to be a whole sale bakery. This is one of the products that we can now distribute throughout the USA! It's my pecan pie filling in a jar! All you have to do is add the eggs and butter and pour it into a pie shell to bake. I'm so excited to have this done. We had to make test jars and send them to a lady at Mississippi State University for testing. She made sure that it would be safe on a shelf for long periods. So if your interested we can now ship this to anywhere! We are now working on other cake or pastry mixes that you can purchase in the gift shop at her farm.
We made these for Easter at the farm they turned out great!
