There's absolutely none like Vanessa! She provides the best flavors with beautiful attention to detail. Everything she makes carries beauty and excellence — not to mention how kind she is as a person. My favorites: the strawberry cake, carrot cake, lime brigadeiro, and the grape one — absolutely heaven on earth!
