Bored with store bought cakes and designs, Our mother started making our birthday cakes and holiday desserts from scratch. I can still remember pictures from my 2nd Birthday of two little mice cakes. Our mother was always known in the family as the baker and ever since I was old enough to be in the kitchen, she couldn’t keep me out!! Cookies, Pies, and Cakes, I just loved doing projects!! Before she knew it, I had taken over the kitchen and encouraged my sisters to help. We were a power house team: Mom let us in on some of her baking secrets, Leah made sure that everything was sound, both flavors and structurally, Evelyn always had an eye for color and style, and I came up with the over the top ideas and worked on execution. So began our Journey to SLEK’s House. Working in the kitchen as a family will always have its challenges but nothing matches the family time that we get while doing something that we love!! But where exactly did the name come from? Well after many hours, days, and weeks of trying to come up with something meaningful, we almost gave up… but then we remembered this all started with family. If you take the first letter of each of our names and put them all together…. Stefanie Leah Evelyn Karen … you get “SLEK”. Naturally our dad, and self-proclaimed taste tester, Harry .. who is also the man of the House” couldn’t be left out and alas, SLEK’s House was born. And now we bring our passion to you. Creating custom treats for all occasions- you make it special, we’ll make it sweet.
We can’t wait to get started!!
