'We’re here to grant your baked wishes.' Filipino-born Danielle Quilos took a chance and turned something she loved into a small business.
THUNDER BAY — Very few people have the courage to pursue their passions. After all, it can be a huge risk with unpredictable outcomes and may require a complete leap of faith.
At Bake-A-Wish, the Ube pandesal stands out as a fan-favourite. Admired for its soft, cushiony texture and rich Ube flavour, it has quickly become popular with customers. In company with the custom cakes, this unique spin on a classic Filipino bread really shows dedication to quality and flavour. “We’re here to grant your baked wishes,” said Quilos, a self-taught baker who has always had a passion for baking but never planned on pursuing it professionally.
However, that all changed within the first six months when one of her friends had a birthday. Since they couldn’t afford to buy a lavish cake, Quilos decided to make one herself. Much to her and everyone’s delight, it turned out to be a delicious success. “I was inspired by the Buzzfeed videos where kids would draw cake designs and the chefs would try to recreate them and make them come to life,” Quilos said. The response has been amazingly positive. People are loving all of her baked goodies. They say each treat contains the perfect amount of sweetness.
