My Baking Journey

Are you a baker? Do you run your own cake business? Ever wonder if you're going about it the right way? Or perhaps you're thinking of taking the plunge and looking for an alternative to that career you're getting tired of? If so, this podcast is for you! We sit down with some of the brightest stars in the baking world. Chatting about how they got into baking, why they love it, and why some days it's the last thing they want to do. It's about what drives them, what makes them successful, and how they manage their day to be a star baker. It's not all rainbows and flowers though. As you'll hear, these bakers have worked hard and pushed through some trying times to create the magic they do in the kitchen. This isn't about baking tips, but more about finding ways to build your business, get customers, grow your social media, and look for inspiration.

E11 - Ekaterina (Ekats) - How to leave the corporate life, become a couture cake artist, and enjoy every moment doing it.

March 13, 2023 • OLBAA • Season 2 • Episode 3

Hey everyone, we’re off to Brisbane Australia this week to sit down with Ekaterina, or Ekats as you may know her by. The timing of this conversation is fitting as you’re about to find out and we meet Ekats at a point in her career where although she’s done so much it still feels like she’s just getting started.

She’s a highly creative person - I mean, just go look at her instagram feed where she can match a her incredible style of dress to a cake over and over - and she finds inspiration in so many things and channels that into so many different areas.

After all, her corporate life was in sales and marketing for various well-known brands so she’s got a lot of experience to draw on - but she’s not keeping it to herself and shares extensively what she’s learnt and teaches so many in her own courses.

This conversation is full of inspiring stories so lets not waste any more time and here get right to it. Enjoy this one!
