From Passion to Purpose
My journey with pastry began long before Browny’s Cakes was created. Growing up in Curaçao, there was a catering company behind my home. During school holidays and weekends, you could often find me there especially in the pastry department, where the cakes and other sweet creations were made. I watched, learned and carried that early knowledge and curiosity with me when I moved to the Netherlands in 2000 to study Business Economics.
For the first few years, I focused mainly on my studies and career. Baking returned to my life when I made a chocolate cake and shared a photo of it on Facebook. Someone saw the photo and asked if I could create a Dora cake for his daughter’s birthday. At the time, I owned an online shop selling cake supplies, but I had not yet planned to become a cake designer. I accepted the challenge and that first order changed everything.
My interest grew, so I completed foundational Wilton cake decorating courses and earned my certificates. More cake requests followed, and eventually the webshop made way for a business focused on creating and selling cakes.
As Browny’s Cakes grew, I realised that my creative skills and business background were a powerful combination. My knowledge of Business Economics, financial administration and taxation helped me manage my own bookkeeping, VAT returns, income tax and business finances. By sharing my work and going live on Facebook, I also built a community around baking, learning and entrepreneurship.
That same practical mindset later inspired CashewNutz.com. Traditional Curaçao cashew cake requires finely ground cashews, but achieving the correct consistency can be difficult and expensive. I saw an opportunity to produce the right cashew product and make the process easier for other bakers.
Today, I combine everything I have learned through baking, business and finance. I create custom cakes, teach baking and decorating skills, develop practical resources and coach cake entrepreneurs who want to build stronger, more structured businesses. What began as a passion has grown into a purpose: helping others turn their creativity into something sustainable.
