Your Caker
Joyce Stein
Hi there, I suppose you’re here for cake!
There's a lot of that here, welcome!
First let me tell you a little about myself.
My husband, Mike, and I have four kids and have moved quite a bit. We both grew up and met in Ontario, where all four of our kiddos were born as well. In early 2018 a job opportunity took our family to Illinois where we met some amazing people and I was able to explore my love of baking more. I started to experiment further with flavours - especially because I had an wonderful group of willing taste testers, the staff at our kids’ school!
In February of 2020 we decided to move yet again for a job opportunity, but this time to Weyburn, Saskatchewan! We arrived and I began to inquire about attending the Weyburn Open Air Market just in time for the spring lock-down – when obviously even more baking happened in our home! As things started to open back up in Saskatchewan, I began attending the Weyburn Market weekly and the support from the community was incredible. My family and my newfound friends in Weyburn have been very encouraging of this venture, which has changed over the few years. I no longer attend markets but sell cake slices from home from my pickup fridge when my custom order schedule allows. I’ve loved meeting so many people in our community whether that's getting to be a part of your special celebrations, or just everyday treats!
