Indeed: Alissa has clients counting on her. The young entrepreneur sells her cakes through Facebook and Instagram pages called Issa’s Cake Dreams. They start at about $30 for a 6-inch cake. The biggest Alissa sold was a 12-inch funfetti cake for a baby shower with blue and pink sprinkles and two fondant teddy bears plopped artfully atop buttercream frosting for $85.
Alissa began her foray into baking as a gift for her dad, Chertilus, for Father’s Day last year. The vanilla cake featured black cherries on top, though it didn’t meet the same level of presentation she achieves today.
