After layoff, mom makes cupcakes
When Sarah Bisher's husband was laid off last year, she went to work baking cakes, cupcakes and cookies.
Posted — UpdatedNew studies and reports have found that more women are reentering the workforce as families struggle to survive during the recession.
Baking had been a hobby for Sarah for years. And she launched a website a few years ago when she started selling some of her goods. But with Blair's layoff, the couple, parents to three kids, decided to see if they could turn it into a family business.
And so far, business has been good. Sarah makes goodies by special order for all kinds of events, including birthday parties, weddings and more.
I took one for the team here and got to take some of Sarah's cupcakes home to my own family.
"Holy cow!" my five-year-old exclaimed when we cut into a chocolate cake with some strawberry filling.
Moist cake. Frosting that's just the right sweetness. They're good. Really good.
Learn more about Sarah in this video, where she'll also give a tip on how to ice a perfect-looking cupcake.
