Love Your Work

Sugar Plum Cakes & Desserts

For many business owners, starting an enterprise is something they do because they’re dissatisfied with the status quo.

That’s definitely the case for Amanda Scheker, who started her Coffs Harbour dessert boutique Sugar Plum Cakes & Desserts after being unimpressed with the current offering.
