My passion for baking started back in elementary school when baking Nestle tollhouse cookies at my cousin's house during school breaks. After a number of school bake sales, I became Wilton-certified through a cake decorating course at my local A.C. Moore, and since then has made plenty of custom for my friends and family.
For the last decade, I've had the pleasure of sharing my passion for creative cakes with the rest of the neighborhood.
Aside from getting my inspiration from the many baking shows on Food Network, I was also a cake decorating instructor for a local summer program, where I taught kids ages 7-15 the fun and excitement that is cake decorating.
I started It’s Jo Cake in 2015 out of my small apartment in Oakland, CA. What first started as a few samples of cupcakes to local stores quickly spread word. When I joined Impact Hub Oakland as a worktrader, that’s really when I started to get more gigs.
