Interview with Ashley: Owner of LoveCakes

4/19/2009

 

I sat down with Ashley Chavez at a recent Women 2.0 event to learn more about her business, LoveCakes and to try her cupcakes! A crowd of fellow business owners and startup developers gathered around us to taste these cupcakes as well!


After learning that the dairy and egg industries were not kind to the animals, Ashley started experimenting with vegan foods,  She realized that vegan pastries were great and worked for a pastry chef for an entire summer writing millions of recipes.
She brought two cupcakes flavors with her: Thin Mint and Pecan Sandie. The Thin Mint Cupcakes are her favorite due to the contrast in flavor of the fudge in the middle of the chocolate cake and mint frosting. The Pecan Sandie Cupcakes are made with soy cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla. and a cinnamon glaze. Both cupcakes were moist, flavorful, and delicious, and my favorite was the Thin Mint! The chocolate fudge and mint combination were superb!
She currently distributes LoveCakes cupcakes and cakes via events, catering, birthday parties, weddings, bakesales, and vegan contracting for cakeshops that have been having a hard time making vegan cakes.
She likes giving cakes to people who don't know they're vegan; then she tells them they're vegan, and they say, "what's that"?
If you'd like to order them, please order 2 weeks advance for the San Francisco Bay Area via emailing her at [email protected] or calling her at (209) 601-5013.
In addition to running LoveCakes, she is a full-time student studying business, and her goal is to run her own San Francisco Bakery by age 25.

These cakes are for real, it's hard to imagine that a cup cake made without milk or eggs could be worth trying, well people get ready for this..
They are so rich that you could only eat one every half hour and the flavors that they come in are out of this world!
Don't wait and give Ashley a call.
