It's incredible to think that just a year ago I was daunted by the thought of making a few cupcakes. Just 10 months ago I remember feeling so intimidated by fondant & thought to myself there is no way i can ever work with this or create appealing products for my customers.
In spite of that, i still went on trying. The more I tried the better I got & before I knew it I was picking up new skills every week. I saw myself improving every single week - not just by a small amounts, I was practically taking leaps & jumping into bigger challenges.
Today I have officially completed a year. A year of simultaneously being a full time business student & managing a business of my own. I'm not going to complain how exhausted I get from time to time, I'm going to simply be grateful for having the opportunity to show and sell my creative capabilities.
Trust me, there are weeks where I just want to give up baking, call it a business experiment, and go back to just focusing on my degree. But then there's people like you, who keep fuelling me with encouragement and inspiration to keep going. Thank you, you know who you are & you know how you have supported me. Whether it's a one on one talk, a compliment or just a like on Facebook - you are the reason I said yes to another order.
So a big thank you to you all!
Love, Parisa
