About Gordon's Goods
AMANDA GORDON - OWNER, BAKER, CAKE ARTIST
Hello! Welcome and thank you for being here! I'm Amanda, the baker and cake artist behind Gordon's Goods! This cake business was born from a dream that I didn't even know I had - I have always had a passion for creating and cooking, but didn't discover my love for cake decorating until a few years ago and now I cannot imagine my life without it!
I studied at George Brown College in the Chef Training program but never made my way into the industry, instead I have many years of experience in customer service and management in various industries.
I met my wonderful husband in 2005, and we have been inseparable ever since! We have two amazing boys, and they keep us busy. Balancing working full-time, being a wife and a mom and throwing a cake business into the mix is no small feat, but I couldn't do it all without them.
I grew up watching my Nana bake and decorate cakes - she always would ask "what kind of cake do you want for your birthday?" And no matter what we came up with she would make it happen. I love that I now get to do the same thing.
I have spent countless hours testing recipes so I can be confident that not only do my cakes look great, but they also taste amazing.
There's something so special to me about being a part of people's celebrations, it's an honour that I do not take lightly. I work through all of the details with you from the beginning of the design process to make sure you're getting the cake you love. So thank you again for being here, and I can't wait to create something amazing for you! ❤️
