Today we’d like to introduce you to Cherrysh Anderson.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Cherrysh. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
“A passion for art has always filled me, I knew very young that I wanted to sell my artwork, I just never imagined it be in this medium and this magnitude”.
-Cherrysh “Cherry” Anderson
Cherry’s Cake Creations officially opened March 5, 2015. It’s opening was not only a surprise to the public but myself as well. A simple request for a custom Frozen themed cake would be the spark that would bring over 400 orders to my doorstep.
I chose the route of cottage baker very early on. The comfort of home allows me to offer my clients an authentic experience. They know exactly who they are working with. There’s no cloud of commercialism just me, my hand mixer, and rolling pin. As a stay at home mom to 6 amazing kids and the wife of a veteran, I take my craft very seriously and with great pride. Being a Fort Worth native, I love my historic city and am truly humbled to see my edible artwork reach so many.
I’ve always found humor in the amount of character recreation cakes I’ve had the pleasure of doing. I’ve always acknowledged there are amazing bakers in Fort Worth with huge amounts of talent but cake artist are hard to come by. Cherry’s Cake Creations will be celebrating 3 years of operation this March and it is my hope to continue to serve my city delicious cake art for many more to come!
Has it been a smooth road?
The journey definitely had been rough. Coming into this business I had no “cake” knowledge. I’ve had to learn everything in double time. Learning about marketing, networking, and building a clientele were challenges that sometimes knocked me back to the beginning. This is a very competitive field and you have to learn to readjust very quickly.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Cherry’s Cake Creations story. Tell us more about the business.
Cherry’s Cake Creations provides custom designed cakes and cupcakes for all size events. Offering traditional cake flavors and signature flavors gives clients a wide variety of sweet options.
Transparency is what sets CCC apart from the rest. Clients see me, my excitement for their events. They are included in every design decision and I communicate consistently with them through the process.
How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
Cake trends are always changing. I think cake artistry is coming to an all-new dynamic. Bold and intricate designs are constantly evolving especially for weddings! As social trends adjust, cake will take new forms.
