Lady C Cakes — The Beginning
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I never thought I would design cakes for a living, either baking or teaching! I grew up with a single mom who was a tailor, but surrounded by a big family with my grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles.
I was born in Uruguay and raised in a small city in the South of Argentina. Food is very important in our culture. We have a tradition, as many European countries do, of having an “afternoon tea” called a “merienda”, where for sure you’ll have some pastries or sweets along with it.
It was a tradition that at my grandmother she would wait for her grandkids with a homemade pastry with hot chocolate during winter and a fruit smoothie for summer. Always homemade, always fresh, and always delicious!
Little did I know when I was a kid, my aunts and my mom were all amazing cooks and bakers. I have had the pleasure to share my passion with one of my aunts and one of my cousins, who both turned to this path of baking and cake decorating (both who still live in Argentina).
I remember watching my aunt making cakes and admiring her intricate work, the satisfying mix of ingredients and the amazing combination of flavors to create something special for a celebration. I realized I wanted to do the same for my own children to help them celebrate their birthdays![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”1475″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes”][vc_column][ozy_vc_floral_divider style=”style_3″ fg_color=”#fd5d5f” max_width=”250px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1669137693044{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”1996″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Three daughters later, after a few birthday parties, and lots of friends complimenting my baking skills, I started to teach my self on how to make the perfect cakes. I developed different decorating techniques and I opened my home bake business in 2012, starting at first with only making cupcakes. I still remember my first order; it was one dozen of cupcakes and it took me forever to do it, but I wanted to make it perfect. A few months later, I was making batches of hundreds of cupcakes for different events, TV shows and celebrations.
I learned to work in a fast-paced environment and be precise with my designs. I learned the fundamentals of baking involve dedication, hard work and lots and lots of practice. My goal is always to make a product delightful in taste and appearance.
As my experience grew, I started to meet and learn about so many incredibly talented people in this industry that constantly inspired me to create new recipes, new techniques, to grow as a business and to offer more and better options to my clients.
After a few years of making cakes professionally out of my cottage business in Santa Monica-California, I was invited to do some TV show appearances and cake competitions, which have further shaped my journey. Here I met many amazing people, all sharing my passion for the art of baking.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″ equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”top” css=”.vc_custom_1679161971392{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]I had the pleasure to be asked to train some beginning bakers, where they developed a relaxed attitude under pressure. They had some amazing experiences involving TV based cake competitions, where they later won!
I have to say that even that this business is made with so much hard work, dedication and responsibility. The reward of seeing the excitement of people witnessing a cake created by my own hands is priceless and worthwhile.
I truly believe that these are not just cakes, they are a story that somebody wants to tell: memories honoring a mom turning 100 years old, the cuteness and love to given to your child with their favorites in a sweet form, the celebration of love when a couple starts their new journey together, the welcoming of a new life in this world, and so many other celebrations. All have a story behind it that I treasure for each client, putting my soul into creating the best cake for their event.
I not only create cakes, I create unforgettable memories and it is truly an honor to be able to be part of this![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”1997″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” full_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1679162095869{background-image: url(https://ladyccakes.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Wedding-Setup.-Cake-table-with-sweet-decoration-and-flowers-1207156194_6000x4000-scaled.jpeg?id=1965) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Turning your stories and dreams into edible art!” font_container=”tag:h1|font_size:60px|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff|line_height:66px” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”wo_white”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1552764098286{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 80px !important;}” el_id=”team”][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Meet Carolina” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” link=”url:%23|||”][ozy_vc_floral_divider style=”style_4″ fg_color=”#fd5d5f” max_width=”250px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row gap=”35″][vc_column width=”1/4″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][vc_single_image image=”2014″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” is_parallax_active=”yes” parallax_delay=”0.8″ link=”https://henna.freevision.me/wedding-planner/about/about-wedding-planner/”][ozy_vc_divider caption_size=”h4″ caption_color=”#000000″ border_size=”2″ border_color=”#fd5d5f” caption_align=”left” caption_position=”top” more_custom=”on” width=”40px” align=”left”]Carolina Sigbaum[/ozy_vc_divider][vc_custom_heading text=”Owner” font_container=”tag:p|text_align:left|color:%23fd5d5f” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1676067993672{margin-top: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1679353455022{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]Born in Uruguay, and taught by her Grandmother, Carolina opened her home bake business in 2012.
