Booming Home Business: Cake and Cupcake Decorating - A Sweet Option In A Though Economy
According to Market Watch on Sept 9, 2011, "Jobless claims rose to 414,000 from 412,000, the Labor Department said Thursday." Surveys indicate that unemployment is the main concern among Americans.
- (1888PressRelease) September 12, 2011 - Following the trend opened by places like Sprinkles Cupcakes in Santa Monica and cupcake-themed TV shows like Cupcake Wars airing on Food Network, many cake and cupcake lovers are becoming business owners from their kitchens. A sweet business indeed. ABZ Recipes reviews: Cake decorating community for professionals and amateurs.
Cake decorating is booming as a home business opportunity due to an interesting mix of disconnected facts: the high unemployment rates, the advances of technology and the growing tendency of people who step out of the box and follow their hearts.
To be an entrepreneur is considered a very uncertain business. However in a gloomy economy with no security for the future, the risks of running a business are not as risky anymore, so more and more people search for home business opportunities that work for them.
To the aids of those sitting on the fence, Scott Shane - author of the book "Illusions of Entrepreneurship: The Costly Myths that Entrepreneurs, Investors, and Policy Makers Live By" - found that the numbers can be deceptive and that it is not true that 90% of new businesses fail the first year. According to a graphic displayed by Scott Shane in his book, 29% of the businesses started on 1992 were still I business on 2002 (Figure 6.2 (p.99)) and the failure rates diminish as time increases. "The data come from a special tabulation by the Bureau of the Census produced for the Office of Advocacy of the U.S. Small Business Administration." clarified Mr. Shane in an article published in Small Business Trends.
Another interesting detail to point out is the way to measure failure. Failure is measured by closed business entities. But an entity can close for many different reasons, not necessarily because it closes the doors.
Cake decorating used to be applied solely for weddings and very big events, and the secrets to make them professionally looking hidden from the public. "Magazines about cake decorating have very insightful information, but the images and explanations are not enough to deliver the whole picture." Said Marie L, from Minnesota.
The advances of technology allowed the appearance of online cake decorating communities creating the break through that cake decorating lovers and entrepreneurs where looking for. See ABZ Recipes new review for details: http://abzrecipes.com/2011/09/10/abz-recipes-reviews-yummy-arts/

Some people enter the community for the love of cooking, and their success translates into a business. "The cookie bouquets were quite a hit, I sold several of them at Christmas. My customers came back saying how happy their hairdressers were with their gift and how delicious they were. Thank You!" said Vanessa G. from Poughkeepsie, New York to the staff of Y.A.
For many entrepreneurs like Vanessa G. to run their own business from their kitchen is a sweet reality.
