If you are an event planner or just have a love of sweets, there is growing business
in the Charlotte area. It is a black owned bakery by the name of Made For You
CLT and it is simply amazing.
Made For You CLT is owned and operated by a Johnson & Wales graduate, and
her name is Da’Maria Hodges. Da’Maria has two degrees from Johnson & Wales
with one being in Baking and the other in Food Service Management. What
separates this from other bakeries in Charlotte? Everything she bakes is made
completely from scratch and ranges on the affordable end of pricing for baked goods.
Believe me I have went out and researched. She also can bake vegan, gluten free,
and any other products with dietary restrictions. The business itself doesn’t have a
main location because she works out of her house from now. Don’t let that detour
you though because she be getting down in that kitchen. She is fully certified and
follows all food safety guidelines at all times. I would think of her as a private
baker that is available to everybody. Ask around to anybody that has ordered, and
they will tell you there is no equal. If you need a cake for a birthday, sweets for a
wedding reception, or homemade holiday desserts, she is your baker
I am choosing to spotlight this business because it is not only owned and operated
by a strong woman but because it is completely black owned and operated. Made
For You CLT is the true definition of black excellence. She has donated money to
local black organizations and is currently helping feed the homeless around
Charlotte. Most companies are all talk when they say they want to support the
black community, but she is really about it. If all this isn’t enough to get you
interested, she also has a small support group that can cater your events. So, if you
are planning an event you can contact her from made from scratch desserts and a
catered meal all at a competitive price. I might sound biased and truthfully, I might
be, but I promise you if given a chance you will not ever go anywhere else. If you
want to contact her Instagram is @madeforyouclt, email her at
madeforyouclt@gmail.com, or call directly at (336)558-5632.
