A native to the Upstate – Sugar Maven Stufona Latta specializes in creating thoughtful desserts to “alter perception through confection”.
As Southern tradition goes, baking has always been a big part of her life. Both of her parents were enthusiastic bakers and no celebration was complete without one of their signature cakes or pies. Stufona baked as a hobby and participated in various courses, trainings, and workshops to learn about all things dessert, hone her techniques, and build her repertoire of delectable recipes.
After spending many years in corporate HR, Stufona saw first hand how impersonal and transactional the corporate environment had become. In 2020, she decided to get back to her baking roots; mixing her professional background with her passion and founded Bake Your Mark. Stufona brings connection, remembrance, and authenticity to her client's branding and engagement efforts via dessert. Through Bake Your Mark, clients commission Stufona to create custom desserts that represent their company in the sweetest way possible.
In her free time, she enjoys hanging out with her 2 sons (Shaun and Brit), tending to her many plants, and growing her library of cookbooks.
