TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF

I’m Ayokunnumi by name aka kunnu or kunnu milk lol don’t ask me why. I’m fun, down to earth, very playful, silly & I love cooking, baking and you’ll always find me in the kitchen.

HOW DID YOU DISCOVER YOUR CRAFT?

Well I’ve always been a food and confectionery person so I decided to go for trainings on how to make the perfect cakes, desserts & confectioneries & it was mad fun. A bit stressful I won’t even lie lol but it’s worth it everytime.

DO YOU HAVE A MENTOR?

Master Jesus lol, Cakes by tosin, fimmies dessert ville, Dripple cakes, Lizzie’s craft

DESCRIBE BAKING & WHAT MAKES YOUR FOOD UNIQUE?

Omo it’s so much fun & I love it!!! Having to chun out new recipes and looking for how to best serve your customers. It’s requires creativity and takes time. I always put customers first and use the best products when cooking or baking. I don’t manage materials for any job & use feedbacks from customers to improve everyday.

FAVORITE CONDIMENTS?

Salt, flavourings,butter, cherries, chocolate chips,cinnamon sugar ,butter milk, mustard, ketchup and soy sauce.

HOW DO YOU FEEL YOUR SOCIETY AFFECTS YOUR INDUSTRY?

Positively actually…  A lot of people are now very exposed to the fact that cakes are everything for an event and have responded positively to that fact. I had a customer that once told me that she doesn’t care if people eat or drink at her party but there must be cake lol

DO YOU FEEL THERE’S A GOOD SUPPORT ATMOSPHERE BETWEEN FOOD VENDORS?

Personally yes!!! I’ve met so many other food vendors that even referred me and gave me jobs. And there’s this group I’m on with about 70 bakers and the love we show each other is amazing.

WHAT’S THE MOST CLICHE THING YOU’VE COME ACROSS IN YOUR FIELD?

“I know someone that can do it for cheaper” it’s so irritating.

MOST REWARDING PART OF WHAT YOU DO?

Customer satisfaction, new challenges, more exposure to new recipes, trying out new things & of course money which is important! LOL

ONE THING YOU HOPE TO IMPROVE ON IN YOUR INDUSTRY?

To inspire many young people with my creativity.
