| Kathy Massa is the owner and operator of Kathey's Kakes Unlimited. Her youngest daughter, Ginger, works full-time with the business as well. Over 25 years ago, Kathy took cake decorating classes as a hobby. At first she only made cakes for friends and family. It wasn't long, though, until other people began ordering cakes for birthdays and special occasions. The first time someone approached her about making their daughter's wedding cake, Kathy said no. She didn't believe she could do justice to a cake so special. The lady talked her into it, however, and she has been making wedding cakes ever since then. Over 25 years and countless cakes later, people are still coming to Kathy for their wedding cakes. After being out for 20 years, Kathy decided to go back to school to finish her degree. In 1997 she graduated from Tennessee Technological University with a degree in Food Systems Administration and a minor in Business. After managing in several different establishments, Kathy decided to pursue her own business. Her daughter, Ginger, moved back to Cookeville from Nashville after graduating from Belmont University. Ginger came on staff full-time to help the business grow. She now manages the company, makes most of the desserts, does all of the website design and maintenance, as well as doing much of the cooking. Kathy, however, is the brains behind the business. She does all of the main cooking, from her own recipes, as well as doing all of the number crunching and planning for the events we cater. She does what she loves and is great at it! We have gone from just offering cakes to being a full-service catering company for Cookeville and the Upper Cumberland area. From the beginning we decided that word-of-mouth was the only advertising we wanted to do. People continue hearing about us from our clients, and because of this, our business continues to grow. Kathey's Kakes Unlimited relocated in 2006 to a larger location. We are now located at 227 E. Spring St., just off the square in Cookeville, TN. This new space is allowing us to have a retail front. In July, 2006 we opened to the general public. As of 2011, we changed our name to Kathey's Kakes & Catering. We want to be completely clear about who we are and what our company offers. |
