BAKER & DECORATOR

Hello! I’m Emma.

I’m a baker and decorator here at Sweet Heather Anne. I always have had a huge interest in cooking and baking and easily decided even before entering high school that a career in the culinary arts was what I wanted to do.

Fast-forward a few years and I just completed my Associates in Culinary Arts at Schoolcraft College, getting to learn from and work alongside some of the best Executive and Master Chefs in the country. While I loved cooking and the satisfaction of creating flavorful dishes, I felt like baking and the sweet side of the culinary arts was calling my name. I decided to continue my studies and complete the certificate of Baking and Pastry at Schoolcraft. During that time, I was able to get work experience as a pastry chef and cake decorator at the Country Club of Detroit, which is when I decided I wanted to focus solely on cakes. I then moved onto Cantoro’s Italian market where I was able to get a great base knowledge of cake decorating and improve my skills even more.

Getting to work for Heather was such a dream of mine as I had admired her work for years. I got my foot in the door through being an intern during the holidays and a few years later, I jumped at the opportunity to apply for a full-time position.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Chris and my dog, Harley. I am a beginner houseplant owner and love decorating cute sugar cookies. Even though I chose to focus on baking and pastry for my career, I still love cooking at home and creating yummy dishes!

I feel so lucky to have found a job I love and cannot wait to see how my future unfolds at Sweet Heather Anne!
