This longevity of this pandemic is very uncertain. We don't know when will it end and just like other businesses around, mine is affected as well.
Sales went down. There were lots of orders were cancelled since mass gathering is not allowed. From birthdays, Christenings and weddings, all reserved order were cancelled.
Lucky enough to have at least 2 customized cake in a week unlike before the pandemic happened, I did have 5 cakes in a week.
My business is affected just like many business out there. We are doing our best to survive as long as we can. At least I still have few orders like yema and custard cakes from the neighborhood and from friends.
Still hoping for the best, that things will be better soon and everything will be okay. Fighting.

That's a very nice cake! I started my business in the middle of the pandemic and it's doing great. Maybe you just need to change strategies while were in this mess.

Most businesses were affected. But in order to survive, we need to learn to adapt to the new situation. This is a lovely cake. I wish you more success on your business.
