Marly's Goodies
"What started out as having fun in the kitchen baking some sweet treats for friends and family quickly evolved into a beautiful cake journey.
As a full time pharmacist, manipulating substances in the lab and baking in the kitchen appeared to be more similar than ever. Whether it's weighing out the exact amount of substances to add to a mix, or waiting to reach the correct temperature of a solution, I was able to merge both worlds and create something new.
Soon I realized that baking was much more than making a batch of cupcakes. A real passion.I would end up spending days and nights in my little home kitchen perfecting techniques and testing out new recipes, jumping in joy when finishing up a cake after pulling an all-nighter.
As for inspiration, it comes anywhere from my favorite desserts that I love to recreate into cakes, to paintings and moods I put to life with colorful and vibrant tones. Although I strive to create stunning cakes on the outside, it is even more important that all creations taste just as good as they look.I get creative and pair up different flavors using the best local ingredients or delicatessens I find around the world.
I aspire to continue my cake journey creating unique cakes, giving workshops, baking for causes, and raising funds for charities and NGOs.
With my cakes, I hope to bake the world a better place!"
