Welcome to Lola's.

I love catering. I love the creativity with it. I love being able to make people happy by creating fantasy in the form of food. I love making people's imagination come to life in the form of something edible. I love hearing, "and you can eat that?", I love knowing I have made a day, like a wedding, just what she imagined. I have had quite a bit of interest lately in my food and cakes and that makes me very happy. Lola's is the name of my "business". Why Lola's when my name is very obviously not Lola? Well My mother's name is Lola and my grandmothers name is Lola. They taught me everything I know about food and they instilled in me the love for food and making it look just as incredible as it tastes (because, lets be honest, people eat with their eyes first) and because when I think about the attributes I want my food and my food business to have I describe those 2 women. Fun, elegant, classy, creative, pleasing, able to stand on it's own merrits, a step ahead, caring, modern without forgetting the past that brought us this far... You get the idea. So I named it for them. Welcome to Lola's.
