52-year-old pastry chef Evelyn Vargas runs a popular cake business called JustJazzy Cakes 212 out of her Bronx apartment in her free time.
In this video from Simone McCarthy and Kyra Gurney for NY City Lens, see how she makes it work.
The cakes are so popular that Vargas’ business has outgrown her Bronx apartment, and she is trying to raise enough money to open up a bakery. Her goal is to leave a business behind for her two daughters and her grandchildren. Vargas has faced a lot of setbacks along the way, but she has never given up on her dream. “You always come back to what you love to do,” she said.
