Cake Connection is the text-book example of a “mom n pop” business! Diane had a dream for many years of owning a cake and candy supply store… and she worked hard to realize that dream when she finally found a location she liked and took the plunge to open in 2007. The next year the building across the street (with sooooooo much more space!) became available and they moved so she could offer even more supplies.
Darin worked in the manufacturing industry where his position was suddenly cut right after they moved into the new building. While looking for another job to support the family, he ended up setting up a wholesale division and they decided to make a go of that as well and the two worked countless hours building a thriving business. Thankfully, the building was large enough to house both businesses so he could help out with the store when needed, but still do his work as well.
And now… the building seams are bursting and there is the great debate whether or not to give him his own building…
