THE STORY
Hi! I'm Alexa Esposito, owner of the Poppery! I started my business at the age of 23. Growing up I was extremely creative. I always knew I needed a career that challenged me and allowed me to express my creativity. It all started in 2013, cake pops had just slowly started making their debut on Pinterest. I was asked if I could make these things called “cake pops.” I took on the task and made my first batch. As time went on, the cake pop requests kept coming with increasingly challenging themes and designs. I was at a party when someone came up to me and told me I should really turn this into a business. At that time, I was in my first year of college for fashion and had every plan to continue on that path. Fast forward two years later, I got accepted to FIT to continue on in fashion… You would think I was estatic, right?  It was at that very moment I realized the passion was not there. As much as I still love fashion, I stand by that decision to this day because it led me to where I am now. I dabbled in few other fields and still nothing gave me that fulfillment I was searching for. I started to think I was never going to find anything. The week of Mother’s Day 2017, I had an order for a friend that canceled last minute. With the cake I had already baked, I decorated 25 cake pops and arranged five pops into a bouquet wrapped in burlap with baby’s breath. I posted it on my personal Instagram account announcing I would be selling these bouquets for Mothers Day. I honestly didn’t think anyone was going to buy them. Three days, five more batches of cake, and 22 bouquets later. It was now 5:00pm on Mothers day and I was still receiving messages asking if had any left. That was when I decided I was going to dive into this head first and its been a whirlwind ever since. I now fulfill my own clients orders along with a wholesale account for Conti's Bake Shoppe in Bronx, NY!!! It has been an amazing journey so far and I cannot wait to see what the future holds for The Poppery. 
 
Thank you for all the continuing love & support
