Description
Hosted by Abena Anim-SomuahProduced by Kerry Diamond and Catherine BakerEdited by Jenna SadhuRecorded at CityVox Studios in NYC We’re taking a peek into the future with Aimee France, the self-taught cake artist known as Yungkombucha420. Aimee started making her contemporary confections during the pandemic, and today, she’s part of the new generation of creatives reimagining what cake looks and tastes like. While her inspirations might be old school—everything from ballet to Baroque architecture to foraged produce—Aimee’s use of Instagram and TikTok to build community and find customers is quite modern. Aimee joins host Abena Anim-Somuah to talk about the joys and challenges of solo entrepreneurship; why she decided to take a break this summer; her love/hate relationship with social media; and, of course, how she makes her signature cakes. Don’t miss Aimee’s Future Flash Five predictions, and her voicemail to her future self.Thank you to Kerrygold for supporting our show.
