At Absolutely Edible Cakes and Catering, dreams really do come true! Nikki Jackson, the owner of this beloved Rowlett bakery, had been eagerly awaiting the visit of renowned food critic Keith Lee. The anticipation was high as she tirelessly prepared her signature dishes, including the Sweet Potato Thang and red velvet cake.
Nikki’s unwavering faith and determination paid off when Keith Lee finally stepped through the door at 5:42 p.m. Little did she know that he had already tried her mouthwatering creations in the parking lot, giving them both glowing ratings of 9 out of 10. The satisfaction of knowing that her desserts had impressed someone who rarely indulges in sweets overwhelmed Nikki, and she couldn’t help but embrace Keith with tears of joy.
Keith’s visit brought validation and renewed hope to Nikki, who had seen the positive impact his reviews had on other businesses. She shared her story with him, explaining her passion for baking and her desire to be recognized in her local community. In return, Keith spent nearly four hours with Nikki and her family, savoring other dishes from her catering menu, including fried chicken, collard greens, mac-n-cheese, oxtail short rib, and cornbread dressing. The reviews were exceptional, especially for the fried chicken and mac-n-cheese.
The encounter with Keith not only brought immense joy to Nikki but also inspired her to explore new culinary opportunities, like starting a fried chicken food truck. The “Keith Lee Effect” had a profound impact on Absolutely Edible Cakes, with the bakery receiving an outpouring of support from the community. Nikki’s faith in her business and her unwavering dedication had finally paid off.
Following Keith’s video review, Nikki wasted no time and embarked on a mission to gather 600 pounds of sweet potatoes for her famous Sweet Potato Thang. The excitement was palpable as she drove through Rowlett, with locals honking and waving in support of her culinary success.
Nikki Jackson’s story is a testament to the power of faith, determination, and the impact that one person’s support can have on a small business. Absolutely Edible Cakes continues to thrive, thanks to Nikki’s unwavering commitment and Keith Lee’s visit, which forever holds a special place in the bakery’s history.
