"Chai-spiced cupcakes with mocha butter cream, dusted with cinnamon and cocoa power".
Wow! Doesn't that sound delectable?
Kimm sent me home with these sweets after her interview with RNB last week in the "Microsoft Commons" lobby.
Yes! they're absolutely one of the best cupcakes I've ever wrapped my watering mouth around (next to my mom's cupcakes of course)!
Kimm Moore is a Redmond resident of two years. Her family are natives of Woodinville. She has two brothers; her mother works at Overlake School. Kimm started her part-time pastry catering business, "Sweetness Catering", about a year ago with wedding cakes and custom cupcakes. She already averages over two events per month. Kimm's full-time job is culinary and pastry chef for the Spitfire Restaurant in Redmond's "Microsoft Commons".
When we first met for the interview, I knew right away Kimm was perfect for the business. Her warm smile, and friendly, engaging personality are just as sweet as the pastry catering craft she practices. In fact, some of her customers even call her "Sweetness"! Kimm is passionate about the pastries she creates, the people she meets and it shows in her work.
"I love baking for other people because it makes me a part of their lives and their special events."
Kimm's a professional. She trained at the Art Institute of Seattle where she received her Associate of Applied Culinary Arts. In Seattle's First Annual Cupcake Camp, Kimm received "honorable mention": for "Kimm-Chi" Cupcakes and second place for Healthy Cupcakes. She placed third overall National Bread Baking Competition in Vancouver, BC. She also works with the Overlake School, in Redmond, making v.i.p. desserts and vegan/gluten-free baked goods.
Kimm has dreams of expanding her catering business. Six months ago she started a blog to reach out to Redmond's "foodie-people". She loves to blog about specific ingredients (like vanilla), kitchen tips (like sifting), and pastry ideas. Since interviewing with RNB Kimm started a interview-series on local businesses: "Know Where to Spend Your Dough"! You are awesome, Kimm! Happy Blogging!
