Corona / California / United States
The owners of Tasteful Cakes lived in Corona far before this bakery ever evolved. They maintained their professions, commuting to commuting to Orange and Los Angeles Counties. However, as they were making their daily, very early, commute one morning, their car was hit and totaled in a terrible accident. In a slow and painful recovery, they tried to work but just couldnt make the commute any longer. Therein developed the idea of Tasteful Cakes. They had always wanted to start their own bakery, but never felt able to do so because of the pressure of maintaining the needs of a family of five. Despite all odds, they mustered the courage, determination, and perseverance to deliver to Corona a high class yet affordable bakery, now known as Tasteful Cakes. At first, the people of Corona were a bit skeptical never having known cakes to both look good and taste good. With some effort though, they quickly began to frequent the bakery for their special occasions, or even just to pop in for a cookie. The excitement of having a gourmet bakery took almost immediately. Fellow small business owners gave words of encouragement during slow times, and the city always stood behind the bakery as a blossoming and flourishing new business. As not only a family that has been a part of Corona for over 20 years, but now one of its new businesses, we felt it necessary to be a vital part of the community with donations to the people of Corona and support to our colleagues in the business world. We have provided cakes, pastries, and cookies to school functions, Chamber of Commerce gatherings, Gods Kitchen, and most notably our work for Toys for Tots. The bakery has done its best to provide to those who are in need even if it is just simply a childs birthday cake. We understand that sometimes thats all it takes to give an occasion that special touch. Tasteful Cakes is a means to community and celebration. People come into the store and connect to those they never would have in any other circumstances. We meet friends who we havent seen in years, old elementary school teachers who have never been forgotten, old neighbors who have been separated by a city and circumstance. All of which celebrate the same occasions, and in that form bonds and suddenly have something joyful to converse about. We may not be able to financially aide all those we wish to, or console those in the way that they need but we are able to provide a simple joya cupcake for a child whos had a bad day, a cookie for a friend that just got a new job, a little box of pastries for a parentjust to show they are appreciated. Weve shared birthdays, anniversaries, memorials, weddings and many other very special occasions with the people of Corona. Weve celebrated years of holidays and seasons with the city and weve made it our job to provide the best product possible at a reasonable price for those that have become our loyal customers, friends and family.
