A Delightful Story

EVERY SWEET BUSINESS HAS A STORY… HERE’S MINE. 

There was a time when buying biscuits in a can or picking up a cake from the grocery store simply wasn’t in the budget.

So, I did what I could—I learned to bake. 

I started practicing pound cakes in different flavors, cookies, and desserts. And let me tell you… those first few attempts were NOT good! 

But I kept going.

I practiced. I experimented. I failed. I tried again. And eventually, I perfected some of my favorite treats—especially my Lunchroom Butter Cookies, Butter Pecan Squares, and 7UP Pound Cake. 

What started as something I did out of necessity quickly became something I absolutely loved.

I began sharing my desserts with family and friends, and there was something so special about watching someone take that first bite and smile. Knowing that something I created could bring someone a little happiness brought ME so much joy.

Then came my mom’s encouragement. She pushed me to think outside the box—to create desserts that were different, creative, and made with the flavors I genuinely loved.

Friends became my taste testers. I would create something new, let them try it, listen to their feedback, and sometimes… it would make its way onto the menu!

Baking became my happy place.

On difficult days, baking gave me peace. It became my creative outlet, my therapy, and one of the ways I expressed love.

I started bringing homemade desserts to gatherings and giving them as gifts. Before long, family and friends started saying:

“Can you make this for me?”
“Can I order some?”
“You NEED to sell these!”

For years, I blessed people with my desserts simply because I loved doing it.

Then my husband, Sherman Barnett, encouraged me to take the next step:

“You should be charging for this!”

And that little push changed everything. 

I began researching ingredient costs, pricing, and the business side of baking. My dear friend and Sistah, Anjenita Davis, helped me work through pricing and develop my dessert menu.

I also took the next step in making my passion a legitimate business.

 

I completed food and sanitation training and earned my Food Safety Manager certification through the National Registry of Food Safety Professionals, following Conference for Food Protection standards.

Then came my EIN, state registration, and the official beginning of TB Delicious Delights. 

Today, I’m still baking from Matteson, Illinois, where this journey began.

And I still believe that every dessert should be made with quality ingredients, creativity, and LOVE.
