Kenfections Gourmet Cake Purveyors

by Ken
(Concord, NC. USA)

Basically I hijacked my wife's hobby after she took a series of cake decorating classes. She came home one night and asked me to try this cake she made.

I flipped by how good it looked as well as tasted. She dared me to the first series of the classes so I did. I fell in love with the ability to create something original for each person and WOW them with the flavoring abilities I picked up a few years back when my family owned a chain of donuts restaurants in Orlando.

Orders started coming in faster than I could produce so I started Kenfections. With my background in ecommerce and search, I just started marrying that skill with my cakes and the rest is history. We've done cakes for NASCAR driver Jimmie Johnson as well as numerous high end clients in the Charlotte NC area. What makes us gourmet is the proprietary recipes I've developed for the cakes as well as the icings and fondant. They taste even better than they look.

Sincerely,
Ken

Kenfections Gourmet Cakes

After gaining a good bit of experience in the donut industry with Hotties Gourmet Donuts in Orlando for a few years, I started taking cake decorating classes here in Charlotte North Carolina that my wife ENCOURAGED ME TO DO.

Figuring that I would be the only guy in the course, I was correct. This group of ladies from Guyana to China taught me many tricks of the trade in the weeks of classes that I took. My instructor has some amazing talent as well. To my surprise, each of the courses were fun and I learned quite a few techniques around cake decorating. So it would be fair to say that I officially hijacked my wife’s hobby.

A few hundred dollars later after buying all of the tools, materials and what-not’s, a few of my co-workers at Lowe’s Home Improvement in Mooresville, NC caught wind of what I was doing and started placing orders one after the other. Many of the cakes you see here are requests that came from word of mouth. I recently received permission to create a birthday cake for NASCAR Champion Jimmie Johnson. (which has ALWAYS been my passion since I was 13 so excuse me while I jump off track a minute) One highlight stands above all others in the many opportunities I’ve been able to drive a stock car as well as attend the races.

Upon meeting the Legend AJ Foyt a couple years ago, I shared with him that I named my first born son after him. He replied in vintage AJ form: “Now, what the hell did you go and do that to the kid for?”

Hopefully, the NASCAR cake we presented will put us on the map once and for all.
