Our Mission
Hello! Welcome to The Sweet Loft by Meshell Sharon.
I have been baking since a young girl, learning recipes from my great grandmother that measured "a little bit of this and a little bit of that".
After having my son in 2008, I began "MemeSweeties", a home bakery, to earn extra income while homeschooling my toddler. Realizing that I really had a knack for the kitchen, I enrolled in Le Cordon Bleu. After a year, I dropped out (lol), but not before learning the basic skills in Baking + Patisserie, then transferring to the Culinary program and getting AWESOME baking + knife kits. I opted for honing my skills by just messing things up (and succeeding) in the kitchen.
To get experience in the industry, I began working as a server, bartender, expediter and hostess in multiple restaurants for over ten years, mastering excellent service and teamwork. Later, I studied Hospitality Management at Florida International University and graduated with my Masters degree. After almost ten years as a middle school teacher, I'm back to the kitchen!
This time around, the goal of The Sweet Loft is to be a healing space that pours into people in and outside of our four walls. To be a beacon and bridge of light that encourages people to view the glass half full, find the beauty in every day and every situation and to continue to grow into their highest selves. Our mission is to be a conduit of change on a micro and macro level, creating funding, resources and opportunities for individuals and communities. We aim to be a space where people smile, breathe, love and heal. We are more than sweets, we are art.
From The Sweet Loft, I serve the immersion of my great grandmothers trained eye and culinary schools precision, through flavors, to you. I hope you enjoy them and each item brings the wonderful nostalgia of happy times to you!
