Tina Jefferson is from the windy city -aka- Chicago, IL.
The entrepreneur states that her dream began with a love
for accessories and details. Jefferson tells, The Cultural Weekly, "I've
always been the girl that likes to put just a special little added touch at the
end to transform items from ordinary to Extraordinary."
I received a box
in the mail, opened it, and saw six beautiful homemade cookies with decorative
love. Tina Jefferson emailed me and stated that before the box of cookies was
shipped, it took some maneuvering to get them to Texas. I am glad that
she handled USPS, and made sure that I received the promised package. Each gourmet
cookie was specially wrapped with accent bows, and looked as if they took hours
to make them.
Tina Jefferson
began making cookies for people at her full-time job. After receiving
compliments from employees about the tasty treats; she decided to put her
baking and faith in action. And to make things more clear, every time someone tasted
one of Jefferson's cookies, they literally put in an order on the spot.
The petite
entrepreneur continues in the interview, "I took every single order
knowing full well I was not equipped to fill them all, but was determined to
make it happen."
With $250.00 in
the bank, Tina Jefferson, took the money and purchased a small hand blender and
some raw materials to make the cookies. The rest is history! Tina reassures the
paper that it took some time to get the cookies exactly where she wanted them
to be as it pertains to decorating cookies and packaging.
"I continued
to practice my craft until it became easier for me to make my cookies beautiful
and I was able to master various designs," Tina Jefferson reiterates via
phone.
It has now been a
year and Tina Jefferson is well on her way to becoming a household name in
Chicago. Today, her company is called, Kute Kouture Cookies, Inc. The
self-taught entrepreneur speaks highly of her budding business, and wants to
continue to build her brand. The company is located in the metropolitan area of
Chicago. Kute Kouture Cookies ships to out of state customers and takes orders
via their website.
As a test, I wanted to be fair in my assessment of Tina’s cookies.
They were delicious to say the least in my opinion. I decided to give one to a
friend. She emailed the paper within two days about Kute Kouture Cookies.
In response she typed, “That cookie was good. It was just the
right texture, not too rich as some gourmet cookies can be and the icing was
just right. I have one corner left.”
With that said, it is never too late to start working on your
dream—regardless of your circumstances.
Tina Jefferson says that, "We can't buy happiness but we can
buy dessert - and it's kind of the same thing."
