We're helping Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 - October 15) go out with a bang AND celebrating National Dessert Day (TODAY, October 14) by publishing another special episode featuring one of the many great Hispanic-owned businesses in Anne Arundel County: Cake Artista.

We sat down with Sandie Torres, owner of the almost ten year-old cake and confections baking business, to discuss:

• How the self-described "Make It Happen Captain" decided to leave corporate America and start the business with her sister, whom she loved baking with as a child in a single-parent household, and give it such a great name.
• What makes Cake Artista's masterpieces so unique - from Hispanic-inspired flavor combinations to complete customizabilty.
• What she learned from AAEDC's Inclusive Ventures Program (IVP), and why it was so valuable to her business's survival, growth, and future plans.

PLUS her favorite places to visit in Anne Arundel County and her top tips for aspiring entrepreneurs.

So tune in to learn more about a business, and a woman, that's all about providing beautiful - AND delicious! - desserts that provide the "wow factor" to folks in and around Anne Arundel County!
