Today we’d like to introduce you to Pamela Wooten.
Thanks for sharing your story with us Pamela. So, let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there.
I’ve been baking for a little over ten years. I started out by making cakes and cupcakes for friends and family as a fun and yummy way to contribute to their special events. After each event, I would have someone (or several someones!) approach me to compliment the looks and flavor of my baked goods and encouraged me to sell them professionally.
After several years of doing this as a hobby, I made my first professional cake a little over six years ago. That cake will always hold a special place in my heart as the one that got this whole PamCakes thing started! Since then, I’ve baked and sold hundreds of cakes and cupcakes for every event or special occasion you can imagine.
I currently live in Marble Falls, Texas and couldn’t be happier to be supplying the hill country, and surrounding areas, with delicious, home-baked treats!
Has it been a smooth road?
This journey has not been a smooth nor an easy one. With cakes, there is not much room for error and you have only one shot to do it right. Every step has to be completed accurately in order to have a great finished product.
There have been nights where something has gone wrong and there wasn’t much I could do but view it as a learning opportunity and keep moving forward. I have had issues from as small as recipes not coming out the way I would like to dropping a cake at a venue!
Building a business from nothing has had its challenges. There was so much I didn’t know about that goes into creating an ACTUAL business, I thought it would be easy and all I needed to know was how to make cakes, WRONG! You have to be knowledgeable in accounting, balancing checkbooks, taxes, inventory, etc. It takes a ton of man-hours just get your business up to be able to serve your first customer.
We’d love to hear more about your business.
What sets PamCakes apart from other bakers is we bake all of our goods from scratch. I love baking and I obsess over producing high quality, delicious, and beautiful treats. I use the best quality ingredients I can find, from fresh strawberries to premium dutch cocoa, and from real vanilla beans to real butter. Most importantly, I bake with love.
I am passionate about the customer experience and will do everything in my power to make sure expectations are met or exceeded. I will work one on one with my client to help design their order and pay close attention to those small details. For wedding orders, I offer free tastings right here in my home. I want my clients to feel confident that what they are paying for will undoubtedly be what they hoped for and more.
PamCakes is best known for our custom cakes and this is what we specialize in, as well as weddings. I have been baking for over ten years and still to this day make sure to stay on top of the most recent trend. I still take classes to make sure I am able to offer, and successfully execute, any recent popular designs from wedding cakes to designer cakes.
