Well hello there! :) My name is Erika and i'm 23 years old. I come from a small country Slovenia, where i live in a little, cute town called Ajdovščina.

I used to study fashion design but cakes, cupcakes, desserts and other sweet things were just too tampting for me to just walk on. So I left college and went back to high school. It's now my second and final year. After i finish, i will get a occupation of confectioner. One day, hopefully also become a pastry chef :) 

I'm not one of those people who can say that they've learned everything from their grandmothers. Nope, not me :) My first ever cake, i baked when i was 17 years old. Shortly after that i started baking more and more, and it didn't take long for me to realise that baking is something that calms me down and gives me a big pleasure. At the moment i was already visiting art high school and after my matura exam i just had to go to college and experience student life on my one. Not knowing what a big influence baking had on me, I was at college for two years before I left and return back home. 
And then, happy Erika was finally free to go back at doing what she loves :) 

So here I am, finishing my second high school and starting a new chapter of my life. A chapter ful of love, happines, laughter, baking, sugar and me :))
...and hopefully, one day, bakery shop :)

That's why i think there is no better way to celebrate it by writing a blog, to have all my advantures in one place. 
If you have any questions, just ask, i don't bite :) i'll be more then happy to help.

 

Love, Erika

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Živjo, živjo! :) 
No, pa začnimo! Moje ime je Erika, stara sem 23 let. Da prihajam iz Slovenije je že očitno vidno, malo natančneje pa, iz Ajdovščine, prelepe Vipavske Doline. 
Ne dolgo nazaj sem bila še študentka Naravoslovnotehniše fakultete, smer oblikovanja tekstilij in oblačil. Žal pa za študij z moje strani ni bilo velikega zanimanja, saj so me vedno bolj mikale sladke stvaritve. Tako sem faks opustila in se ponovno vpisala na srednjo šolo. To leto je moje drugo in hkrati tudi zadnje. Po končanem šolanju bom koončno lahko rekla da sem šolana slaščičarka :) jeeej!

Nisem ena tistih, ki bi se lahko pohvalili, da so se za peko navdušili v nonini kuhinji. Da ne bo pomote, obe sta odlični kuharici, ampak očitno nikoli ni prišlo do tega, da bi pomagala pri stvari, ki bi me res pritegnila. Dan, ko se je v meni nekaj prebudilo je bil, ko sem pri svojih 17 letih prvič spekla torto za sedaj bivšega fanta. Hvala bivši fant :)) 
Kdo bi si mislil, da mi bo ena preprosta torta tako "spremenila življenje" in me popeljala na to sladko pot. Kmalu sem v peki odkrila pomiritev, veliko veselje odkrivanje novega in ustvarjanje. 
Takrat sem obiskovala likovno gimnazijo, katero sem seveda želela tudi končati, po maturi pa kot vsi drugi oditi v Ljubljano, izkusiti sladko študentsko življene. Prvo leto je še nekako šlo, v drugem letniku pa sem začela opažati, da me študij ne veseli ter da je tisto kar hočem početi ustvarjanje v kuhinji.
Tako sem študij opustila in se vsa srečna vrnila domov :)
 

In sedaj sem tu, končujem šolo in začenjam s pisanjem novega poglavja. Poglavja polnega ljubezni, sreče, smeha, peke, sladkorja in mene :)) 
...upam, in vem, da se nekje sredi poti ustavim tudi v svoji slaščičarni :)

Z največjim veseljem bom brala vaše komentarje in kritike, vprašanja so tudi dobrodošla!

Imejte lep dan, vsak dan!

 

Vaša Erika
