Exploring Life & Business with Shavon King of 4 Queens Creations

Today we’d like to introduce you to Shavon King.

Hi Shavon, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I have loved to bake and craft ever since I was a little girl. My days in the kitchen started very early on with my mother and grandmother. Once my children were older, I was able to return to crafting in my spare time. In the beginning, 4 Queens Creations included all types of crafts and treats. I was creating everything from t-shirts and cups to chocolate covered treats and full dessert tables.

In October of 2019, I decided I wanted to learn how to decorate sugar cookies. I immediately fell in love and realized that cookie decorating is what I enjoy the most. I now have a growing cookie business that comes with a lot of hard work and sleepless nights but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I think the biggest challenge for me has been trying to find a work life balance. After working my full time job, it’s straight to the kitchen to work on cookies.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
4 Queens Creations, named for my four beautiful daughters, specializes in custom decorated sugar cookies. I work with my customers to create cookies for their celebration that will not only look pretty but taste good. I’m extremely proud of how far I have come in such short time. I committed to learning how to decorate and I have been able to turn it into a business that I can be proud of. What sets me apart is my determination to provide superior customer service with my cookies. I want to make sure my customers share in the experience of creating their order and that they are satisfied on all levels.

We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
At the end of the day, success is creating a product and service that I am proud of. If my customers return and continue to support my business, that is a win for me.
