I got to tell you that I’m now a huge Popsy Cake fan…the one I stole was Red Velvet and it was absolutely over-the-top delicious. I enjoyed it in the comfort of my Peacock Pad and hope that Bill gets his hands on some more of these soon. I am addicted!!!
They would be great for catered events…particularly for kids….I heard that a prominent NBA player had them for his kid’s birthday party...and came back for more. Here’s the scoop on Popsy Cakes…
Jessica Cervantes decided to create an innovative cupcake on an edible stick when prompted to create a business with the help of The Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) in 2006 at the age of 16.
Ever since her grandmother taught her how to bake, Jessica has loved measuring and tasting different ingredients - and mixing them up to see how her culinary creations would turn out. But it wasn't until Jessica became a part of the International Business and Finance Academy at John A. Ferguson Senior High school, that baking and business came together in a brand new recipe for success.
The budding baker/entrepreneur competed against 25,000 business students across the country and won first place in the NFTE National business plan, a competition which was held on October 23, 2008 in New York City. Her innovative creation has caused a great buzz across the United States, as well as Mexico.
Jessica is now a student at the Honors College of Miami Dade College, managing both her business and studies. She is currently majoring in Biomedical Engineering, yet hopes to one day become a corporate lawyer.
What a story!!! Now all we need is a Popsy Cake made in the shape of a peacock with my name on it….
That’s all for now, I’m taking a much-deserved nap.
Sweet Dreams,
Winston The Picky Peacock
