“Her approach to cake making is heavily informed by her training in both art and psychology. De Lung attended an arts magnet high school before studying cognitive science in college. She had already been baking for a few years when she pursued a masters in psychology, which, she said, helped her hone “the tool of yourself and who you are.” Those realizations have led to “a relationship between myself — my hand, my skills, my eye — and then the environment and what it’s offering,” she said.”
-The New York Times, 2023

SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS, PRESENTATIONS, JUDGING
It’s been reflected to me that my presentation style is articulate, impassioned, and personal. As an experienced speaker, presenter, and judge for community events, I gravitate toward offering a new way to think about the wedding industry, cake-making, and small-business ownership, that emphasizes the relationship we make to society at large, and to ourselves, personally.
Please reach out to inquiry@jasmineraecakes.com to inquire about having Jasmine participate at an upcoming event, show, or convention.

BUSINESS CONSULTATION
It took me 8 years to start to get my groove, both as an artist and a small business owner. 18 years later, plus a master’s in Psychology, has set me on an unexpected path of becoming “the cake therapist”. Our sessions are practical, yes, with implementable changes, but at the forefront, we will focus on what is the right type of business for YOU. There is no correct way to run a business, especially for those of us who make a profession out of our creativity and craft. Allowing me to reflect to you, help you hone the intentions of your business, and then strategize a schedule of actions to take, could accelerate the health and maturity of your creative business.
Or maybe you simply have a list of burning questions that you just need to ask a cake expert who has been an innovator in the field, and happens to have an art and psychology background. We can book a single session and burn through your questions in depth or plan out an extended series that allows you to work through developmental milestones.. Please email inquiry@jasmineraecakes.com to begin.. Like most therapists, I charge a sliding scale. Many cake-makers enter this field without business acumen and then wander aimlessly for years, trying to understand if the practices that work for others will work for them too. Designing your business to be right for YOU is something of an act of self-love.
