About Brenée
Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is Shalon Brenée Maxile, I am a mother, a wife, a new "Gigi", and an active member in my community. I have been baking for over 30+ years. Initially, I started baking to help pay my rent and make ends meet when I was a young, single mother of one and then two sons. Then life happened.....I met a wonderful guy, we got married and BOOM.....I had twins. During a volunteer activity at our local high school, a friend encouraged me to rekindle my passion for baking. I needed a side hustle to start saving for my 2 daughters that would be going to college amongst so many other things. So, I started back baking for family and friends. The word got out and here we are!!! Fast forward, my girls are now seniors in college and I have officially moved my little side hustle into a business....FINALLY.
I LOVE TO BAKE. Being in the kitchen reminds me of all the time I spent with my grandmothers in their kitchens. My Grandmother (Ma Bit) taught me how to bake. She was so much fun and we would always have a good time in the kitchen. When I bake, I love to listen to Fantasia Burrino (The 3rd American Idol winner from High Point, NC). When me and 'Tasia get in the kitchen, you know it's gonna be good!! 😋 'Tasia helps me bake LOTS of L❤️ve into all of my bundt cakes.
Currently, I work full-time in Corporate America. I bake in the evenings and on weekends at my home. It has always been a dream of mine to open up my own bakery with a card shop inside. I'm moving forward with my dream and I hope to have a store front soon. I have several loyal and repeat customers and I am SO thankful for them. I hope that you will also become a customer. Thank you so much for visiting and for your support of my small business.
