Meet the Business Owner: Amber Vander Vliet.
When I was a little girl, "grown-ups" always asked, "what do you want to be when you grow up?" I faithfully answered, "a baker." I was very determined and started my "professional" journey at the age of fifteen. I started my day at 4:00 am, working as a pastry chef intern at a five star hotel before attending school. I continued on working for established, respected bakeries and was educated in the art of baking. After college I was lured by art & design and worked for 7 years as a design studio manager. I also worked alongside my husband, facilitating corporate events, for nearly 8 years. 15 years later I am doing what I proclaimed to do as a child...I am a baker, never losing my passion. Enjoy Cupcakes is located in Santa Ynez Valley, California where I am continually inspired by local produce, flavors, wines and respect for food. I take advantage of the ingredients that grow in my yard and what the local farmers are offering for sale.
