info_outlineWhen our guest on today's episode of Ballet to Business, Jordan Fry, revealed that one luxury wedding cake she had been working on took her 70 hours to complete in a week, my jaw was on the ground.
Now the time it takes to create a stunning work of edible art also caught Jordan a bit off guard at the beginning. Once she became known as the ‘baker’ at Ballet West, where she currently dances, requests for wedding cakes started rolling in.
And as Jordan continued to get more and more requests, her husband, Adrian, couldn't help but notice she was pouring countless hours into baking and encouraged her to start adequately charging for her time. It was in that moment that they both decided Jordan needed to turn her hobby into a business. Thus Ballerina Baker was born!
