We had the good fortune of connecting with Anna Brunson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Anna, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The most important factor is the quality of my cakes. No matter how big or how small each cake is, they all get the same quality products & designs. Every cake that leaves my kitchen is made fresh to order and comes with my own personal touch. Word of mouth is so important in this industry; I want everyone who hears about Cakes by Anna to have a positive experience every single time. To me, there is no bigger compliment than a repeat client. There is a lot of competition in the industry, and I think my great communication and professionalism also helps set me apart.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
When most teenagers where out hanging with friends, I was baking with my mom. It was at a cake decorating class for beginners it became more than love at first cake. It was a deep passion that has continued to grow over two decades. The love, passion, and dedication is the driving force behind these beautiful creations.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Atlanta has so many incredible things to see and do. I would definitely make sure we stopped Georgia Aquarium then had dinner at Optimist. Ponce City market and the beltline are the perfect Saturday activities with happy hour at New Realm brewery. Then you can’t come to Atlanta and not eat at Fox Bros BBQ, Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Hands down my family. I am so blessed to have their incredible love and support. They are my biggest fans and always let me know how proud they are of me and my accomplishments.
