| Introduction | Also known in some circles as Mevrouw Cupcake, I’m a professional eater, freelance baker, and Kansas native who has lived in the Netherlands since 1998, and Amsterdam since 2003. Since 2006, I’ve been producing homemade gourmet cakes to order and am focusing on growing my love of cake into a profitable small business. I also like to think, discuss, and do a whole lotta other stuff, and that’s what this blog is about. |
