My First Blog

Hi everyone! Welcome to Kassy Cakes Blogs! My name is Kassandra Osorio and I'm so excited to start this blog sharing my passion for baking cakes. I'm a self-taught baker who specializes in buttercream cake decorating. I currently live in Kyle, Texas, which is only 15 miles south of Austin and 63 miles northeast of San Antonio.

Baking has been a hobby of mine ever since I was a little girl. I have fond memories of baking birthday cakes with my mom and decorating them with tons and tons of sprinkles (yes often too many). As I got older, I wanted to learn more complex cake-decorating techniques so that I could really spoil my friends and family with pretty cakes but I couldn't afford to take expensive cake-decorating classes. So I turned to books, YouTube videos, and LOTS of trial and error to teach myself the art of buttercream cake decorating (and yes sometimes errors are expensive too).

After lots and lots of practice (and many, many failed cakes!), I am happy to report that I can now make buttercream cakes in my own unique decorating style that I can't wait to share with all of you. As a cake designer, I take pride in crafting unique and personalized cakes that add a special touch to any occasion, be it a birthday, wedding, or another memorable event.

On this blog, I'll be posting some cake-related stuff and photos of cakes I've made for clients. My goal is to inspire other home bakers like myself and show you that with enough passion and practice, you can teach yourself any skill! As with all skills and arts, I'm still learning and improving every day, so this will be an ongoing journey for me. I hope you'll follow along and learn right alongside me (without the many errors part. Disclaimer, follow at your own risk).

When I'm not baking, I love spending time outdoors with my two kids and loving husband. We especially enjoy sunbathing on the San Marcos River, which is one of my favorite places to relax.

Thanks for stopping by and welcome to my little corner of the internet! I can't wait to connect with all of you over our shared love of baking. Let's decorate some cakes!
