About Me
Hola!
My name is Monique. Thank you for stopping by. Back in December of 2017, my family and I wanted to have a fun night of gingerbread house making and cookie decorating. It was a no brainer for my family that I would be the one to bake the cookies. I’ve always enjoyed baking, just not cookies. Everything else, but cookies! Let’s just say they’ve always ended up in the trash. Well, I ended up baking gingerbread cookies, which were a success. Next thing I know I’m googling sugar cookie recipes and baking the first one I came across, another success! Fast forward to April 2018, my little cookie gig was born. Piece of Cake and Cookies. I started off baking for close friends and family; I was too nervous to bake for strangers. But little by little my name was being shared and now I was booking people whom I did not know. Being a self-taught cookier, I’ve watched countless videos, attended a few classes and followed some gracious cookiers. Not to mention a lot of trial and error.
I quit my full time job to be a stay-at-home mommy to our beautiful daughter. Now baking cookies during nap time and at night is how I run my business. When I’m not baking, I enjoy outdoor activities like playing on a co-ed softball team with my husband. As well as traveling the world as backpackers. That has been by far the most adventurous thing I have done, and loved the experience.
Thank you to all who have been with me since the very beginning and thank you to those who have recently joined me. Without you guys, the support of my family and friends- I would not be here.
Xoxo,
Monique
