A few years ago, Desi's Divine Oven was just a dream.
Today, it's still growing one cake, one cookie, and one customer at a time. But the dream has always been bigger than baking.
Most people see the desserts.
What they don't see are the prayers, the late nights, the planning, the learning, and the vision God placed on my heart.
One day, I hope to have a two-story bakery cafรฉ.
The first floor would be filled with fresh baked desserts, coffee, laughter, and community.
The second floor would be called The Upper Roomโa place for prayer, worship, Bible studies, encouragement, and people seeking God.
Today at church, Pastor said something that really stuck with me:
"When you find that God is silent in your life, it's because He is working on you. You're being molded into the vessel for the very thing you asked for."
Whew. โค๏ธ
Because if I'm being honest, there have been seasons where I felt like God wasn't hearing anything I was praying for.
But as I've grown in my walk with Him, I've learned that He can't give me what I'm not ready to carry.
And maybe that's grace.
Because I never want to mishandle something God has blessed me with.
So while I don't know exactly when this dream will happen, I trust His timing, because I know He's preparing me for what I've been praying for.
The photos in this post aren't construction photos or official plans. They're simply a visual representation of a dream that he placed in my heart.
Will it happen next year? I don't know.
Will it happen exactly like this? Probably not.
But I do know that God has been faithful through every step of this journey so far.
So for now, I'll keep baking. I'll keep learning. I'll keep serving. I'll keep showing up. And I'll trust God with the rest.
Thank you to every person who has ordered, shared a post, recommended my business, prayed for me, or encouraged me along the way. You may see desserts, but you're helping build something much bigger than that.
โจ Dream big. Start where you are. Trust God with the process.

What's a dream God has placed on your heart? โค๏ธ
