Hi, I’m Lysa, founder of Dessert.net CAFE, the very first online-only bakery. Back in 2006, shipping cakes and desserts across the country was unheard of. After 15 years of testing, refining packaging, shipping methods, and building a loyal customer base, I perfected a business model that works.

Hello, I am Lysa, an Accountant turned Entrepreneur. Because of my strong ambition and fierce independence have spent half of my life as an Entrepreneur.

Dessert.net CAFE is my third business venture. I started this business while home-schooling as a single adoptive mother.

My business model is ideal for keeping costs controlled and a work-life balance a priority. Because I baked-when-ordered, I could establish a consistent cash flow. By my third year in business, I was clearing 5-figures working out of my home kitchen. Although I wanted to make more money, I didn't want a larger company. Therefore, the following year I chose to scale versus expand. This move took my business to a solid 6-figures, and reduced my schedule down to a 4-day work week!

Everything I learned has been tested and proven tried and true. I created a business that accommodated my needs and discovered a lucrative business model in the process.

In 2020 I laid down my spatula to travel the world full-time. I create content for new entrepreneurs and coach aspiring baking business owners like yourself because I enjoy helping others succeed.
