I hope that Cool Calm Cakes can create something special for you in the near future! Hello and welcome to Cool Calm Cakes! My name is Alexis Fletcher and I am a Chicago native but currently, I reside in Phoenix, Arizona. Most people complain about the hot weather here, except for me, I LOVE the heat! I’m sure being born in Chicago in December has a lot to do with why I HATE
(okay, I know that’s a really strong word, but the feeling is REAL) cold weather! I am a true foodie and I have loved food since I was a baby. Friends of the family would always tell my Mom someone could kidnap me with a hotdog because I would gladly join anyone in sight eating food. I used to climb into my Uncle’s lap to enjoy a good steak with him at two years old! My love for baking began with my maternal grandmother Rosa in the kitchen. Our birthdays are 1-day apart and fall during the winter holidays. We would often have joint birthday parties and often loved to bake our own birthday cakes.
