For those who are craving something other than the traditional black cake and fruit cake this holiday, below are some of my recommendation for finding the most trendy and tasty cakes this season.
(These businesses were featured this year in Kaieteur News’ weekly magazine ‘The Waterfalls.)
Sweet Confections: Official cheesecake stop
Satisfy your sweet tooth with a delicious cheesecake from ‘Sweet Confections.’ Choose from a variety of toppings such as strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, kiwi, passion fruit, Oreo or indulge in their renowned death-by-chocolate cheesecake.
While speaking with the owner of the business, 27-year-old Ronetta Alexis Austin, she shared that she began baking for her family and close friends in July 2019, and later launched her business officially.
Sweet Confections is located at Lot 64 Howes Street Charlestown, Georgetown (between Russell & Adelaide Streets). The business is opened Monday to Saturday from 08:00-hours to 16:00-hours.
To contact Ronetta, you can visit her Facebook page Sweet Confections or WhatsApp/Call +592 612 2189.
Moffett’s Sweet Treats: Dessert Heaven
Moffett’s Sweet Treats
After much encouragement and great reviews from first her family members, and then her co-workers, 31-year-old Jilesa Lewis was able to launch her business “Moffett’s Sweet Treats” back in April of 2018.
Try any of their scrumptious cheesecakes, cookies or cupcakes. Starting off with just baking cakes and cupcakes, Lewis now has over 20 sugary-treats and pastries on her menu. There are such delights as cheesecake, brownies, cookies, chocolate covered strawberries, and éclairs, just to name a few.
Moffett’s Sweet Treats is located in Nismes, on the West Bank of Demerara, which is about a 5-10-minute drive from the Demerara Harbour Bridge. They also offer free delivery to customers in Central Georgetown on weekdays.
To contact Jelisa, you can visit the Moffett’s Sweet Treats page on Facebook or call using WhatsApp (+592) 691 7151.
Whipped: Savour the Moments, not the Calories
Living out her childhood dreams, 28-year-old Christina Rodrigues is whipping it up in the kitchen with her cake and pastry business, ‘Whipped.’

While speaking with The Waterfalls, Rodrigues shared that ever since she was a child, she wanted to be the owner of a bakery.
