Heart of the Community
I was so honored to receive the Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award last night! Iβm so thankful to this community for nominating me, to the Lake Gaston Chamber of Commerce for all their support, and my parents for making Jenny Cakes at the Lake a dream come true. I am blessed beyond measure and I know my granddad is smiling down on me. I canβt wait to open Jenny Cakes at the Lake SOON! π

Wow! What an honor to be recognized as new business of the year by the Lake Gaston Chamber!! We are so grateful for all the love that the community has shown us and have been humbled by the response to our bar and distillery. What was just an idea a year ago is now a melting pot of people, ideas, community, and love. Thank you!!!
