The baker behind Bess Treatz

It started in 2019, with a monster cake for her eldest son's birthday.

That cake inspired Dianne Bess to turn baking into a business. She opened Bess Treatz Cakes & Catering Service in June 2021, in Friendship on the East Bank of Demerara.

Dianne is a self-taught baker who went on to complete a pastry course. Today she runs the cakes, the food and the catering herself, for birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, weddings and corporate events.

She says what she enjoys most is putting smiles on her customers' faces.
