Vinusha MK may be only twelve, but she already owns of her own baking company– Four Seasons Pastry. Vinusha’s discovery of her love of baking began when she was only nine years old. She wanted to surprise her mother for her birthday, and with the help of a friend, managed to successfully make a cake. Vinusha realized she had a knack for baking, and with her parents help, managed to sell over six hundred cupcakes from her kitchen, starting in 2019. Each cupcake is themed to represent a season– orange for summer, green (with a fondant leaf) for spring, white (with a fondant snowflake) for winter, and pink (with scattered fondant leaves) for fall. Vinusha also has sold vanilla and black forest cakes, though the cupcakes were more successful. Before the pandemic, Vinusha launched baking kits complete with ingredients, and during the time at home, she also launched blondies, chicken and vegetarian sandwiches, and homemade chocolates.
Vinusha is coached by several seasoned pastry chefs, and dreams of going to a European culinary institute. She plans on creating healthy cupcakes and a website once the pandemic ends. Some of her inspirations for the future are to make her brand number one in desserts, to open a culinary school for those who can’t afford to study abroad.
What makes Vinusha different from the rest is her passion for baking. She has no limits to her ambition, and though she is excited about her craft, Vinusha is less childish than you might expect. She refuses to give up, even if it takes twenty attempts to get making macaroons right. When mistakes are made, Vinusha gets back up and tried again. She’s willing to try new things to get the recipe just right. Vinusha is very open to feedback, and believes that you should let your passions should choose what you do with your life, and not try to force an interest on yourself.
Twelve is quite a young age to start a business! Good for her! I also love her attitude, how she’s determined and passionate about what she does! It seems like she’s a true baker which is definitely the right thing for her to turn into a business! I hope that business is still doing well even after the pandemic… I hope it continues to go strong, as I would definitely support young entrepreneurs such as her!
That is so cool that she followed her passion at only age 12 and went on to create a succesfull business. Its great that she is so persistent and doesn’t give up when things go wrong. The fact that she is succesfull at such a young age shows her skills and that the company will only grow.
