Main Ingredient

Hi! I’m Jerica! To know me, is to know my love of all things food. My passion started early in life, making my first family meal at 7 and my first batch of brownies at 10. Baking and cooking became more than a “necessity”. I romanticized the process. I loved picking the ingredients in my mother’s garden and also the open air markets back home. I loved preparing everything in cute neat bowls and learning from anyone and everyone who would teach me. I loved how the aroma filled the house. I loved setting the table and the conversations shared as we all enjoyed our meals. I have always had a loving relationship with food. Some may say I am a little OBSESSED! I say, why stop there?

A little about me. I was born in the Northern Philippines and raised on a little island called Guam. My family relocated in 2002 to Las Vegas, NV where I fulfilled my dream of going to college in the states. I completed my Associates Diploma from Le Cordon Blue of Culinary Arts in early 2005. I graduated top of my class and as one of the youngest to complete that year. Since 2004, I have worked all over Las Vegas from small family owned bakeries off the strip to large upscale kitchens up and down Las Vegas Blvd working alongside Masters of their craft. In 2019, I decided to take my craft into a different direction and work directly with my clients. As one who has always been behind the scenes, I feel like working directly with my clients brings me a new sense of joy, ambition, fulfillment, and relationships. I am ready to express my own creativity and collaborate with you to make a one of kind dessert experience you and your guests will talk about through out the years.
