Why R Cakes by Rocelle Is Redefining Custom Cakes and Pastries in Marikina
Cakes and pastries are a dime a dozen when dessert makers troop into one competitive locale, but rarely do we see pedigree as much as R Cakes by Rocelle when it comes to creating designer cakes and pastries. Pedigree isn’t just about where and what culinary school one came from, but how they used that knowledge to create works of art in the symphony of aesthetics and flavors.
Certainly, presentation consistently plays a crucial role in the food and confectionery industry. Nonetheless, it would significantly enhance the effect if that aesthetic were complemented by a comprehensive understanding of how to assemble elements to craft flavors that would captivate the palate.
History:
Rocelle began baking in 2017. Initially, she merely wanted to make an elegant birthday cake for her daughter. Over time, she developed a passion for it and aspired to create more artistic cakes.
She eventually enrolled in the Lyceum Culinary Institute to pursue her education, despite working full-time as a CAD designer. As her clientele grew, so did their belief in her abilities with cakes. After participating in mall bazaars, she launched a small boutique in Marikina to offer clients a convenient spot to pick up purchases.
