MEET THE BAKER 🌸🧁
I think it’s finally time I put a face behind the floral cupcakes! 👋🏼
Hi! I’m Sonya, the owner and baker behind The Petal Patisserie. If you’ve been here from the beginning, you may have noticed I’ve kept myself pretty much behind the scenes, but with so many new faces here lately, I thought it was time to properly introduce myself!
A few things about me:
🌸 I’m actually a full-time software engineer! By day you’ll usually find me behind a computer, and by night (and just about every free moment in between 😅), I’m in the kitchen baking and piping flowers.
🧁 I’ve loved baking for as long as I can remember. It has always been one of the ways I show love to the people around me. There’s just something special about creating something from scratch that tastes delicious and looks beautiful.
🌿 I also absolutely love gardening and flowers. I never imagined my love for baking and my love for flowers would one day come together to create a business, but somehow they did and The Petal Patisserie was born.
🌴 I was born in California, spent part of my childhood growing up in Georgia, and eventually made my way back to California before life brought me here to South Carolina.
What started as a hobby turned into a business so much faster than I ever expected. I genuinely had no idea where this would go when I started sharing my floral cupcakes. Seeing how many of you have ordered, shared my work, recommended me to friends, followed along, and trusted me to create something for your special moments has been incredibly humbling.
My favorite part of this little business is getting to make something beautiful for the moments that matter to you. Whether it’s birthdays, weddings, showers, celebrations, or sometimes simply because someone deserves flowers they can eat. 🌸
I’m so grateful for each and every one of you who has supported The Petal Pâtisserie and allowed this little hobby of mine to grow into something I never expected.
And above all, glory to God for all things. 🤍
