Michael's Deserts: Michael Platt - a podcast by Benjamin Wong
from 2020-11-01T14:00
The second Michael Platt, who always had a passion and talent for culinary arts, realized that he could make money doing something he loved, the gears started turning in his young mind. Knowing it was going to be an uphill climb, the 12-year old was ready for the road ahead when he created his baking business Michael's Deserts. Combining the aesthetic appeal inherited from his mom, a cosmetics major, and the art and love of culture inherited from his father, Michael set out to sell the perfect desert. But to Michael, it wasn't just about a cupcake. It was about spreading his love of the craft, and building a platform to combat food insecurity, even promising to donate one desert for every desert purchased. Now, Michael is selling out all over town, and has even grown out of his own home, looking to purchase a physical storefront downtown.
