SPRING 2014 - MEET THE OWNER BREW CAKES Beer & Liquor Infused Cupcakes OWNER: Angela Figueora HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS: 2 Years LOCATION: Milwaukee Area INSPIRATION: My aunt and I used to make cakes for family members birthday’s. We’d make them into all sorts of things, like monkey’s and alligators. The beer is an influence from my father, he’s been home brewing for about 15 years. NEW CUSTOMERS: If you love to try new things and experience new fun flavors, you can find it right at Brew Cakes. FAVORITE PART OF THE BUSINESS: Getting to do different events and meeting new people. I love that my cupcakes get to make someone’s wedding or special day even better. PLANS TO GROW: I hope to not only have a storefront, but I would love to have a cupcake truck to drive around and spread cupcakes to everyone! SOME FAVORITE LOCAL BUSINESSES: I enjoy Lowlands Group’s restaurants, such as, Café Benelux and Café Centraal. I also love Collectivo and of course local breweries such as, Lakefront and MKE Brewing. I love to discover new local businesses in this city. THINKlocal magazine thinking-local.com p3
