Made to be remembered

Sweets by Alexandria is a lifelong devotion to craft. It began in my earlier years with just an Easy Bake Oven, an obsession with cupcakes, and an innate curiosity about what transforms something from ordinary to extraordinary. Even then, baking was never just about following recipes—it was about precision, patience, and creating something worth sharing.

What started as a childhood hobby became something real when I launched Sweets by Alexandria as a full-scale bakery kiosk at The Streets at Southpoint Mall in Durham, NC. I managed every detail from recipe development and operations to sales, marketing, and customer experience. My mom was my partner in the kitchen, the steady hands beside mine, the one who made the long days feel lighter.

Over three years, we baked more than 50,000 cupcakes with intention and care. Through an uncompromising dedication to craft, we earned the trust of our community. None of it would have been possible without the unwavering support of my family and the customers who became part of this journey A bakery at its core, yet something greater—an experience worth remembering.

For a time, I thought Sweets by Alexandria belonged to a distant future, something I might return to one day, if at all. But time has a way of revealing what was never truly left behind. Nearly four years later, the pull to return has only grown stronger. The requests never stopped, and neither did the quiet certainty that this was never just a chapter of my past. It was always meant to be.

Sweets by Alexandria returns, refined and reimagined—not as a revival, but as an evolution. With the same dedication to excellence and the unwavering belief that good things take time. Now, more certain than ever.
