The essence of Mary Grace is the goodness of home, where fresh from the oven pastries and good home-cooked meals warm the heart and soul.

History
1983
On the mornings of my children’s birthdays I would delight them with personally decorated cakes. At the same time, I  began by offering my homemade fruitcakes to my dearest friends. Little did I know that this was going to be the start of something wonderful!

1991
Stemming from the pleasure of seeing my friends enjoying my fruitcakes and following my heart’s desire to spread joy through my creations, I took a 12 month course on baking in the US to further enhance my budding talent.

…I came home to harness all I had learned to perfect my own formula for a local delicacy, an Ensaymada with just the right texture and flavor. After bouts of tears and frustration, countless family taste tests over Sunday lunches, and the seal of approval from them, most especially my parent, I knew I hit Eureka!

1994
With 5 children in a tow, and a supporting husband, I joined my first bazaar where I offered my Ensaymadas and Cheese Rolls!

2002
After several Christmas seasons and with the hopes that family and friends can bring home a little bit of Christmas all year round, I opened my first little store.

2006
Four years and eleven kiosks after, I created my own cafes! A home away from home, where family and friends share stories over hearty meals capped off by a wonderful combination of Mary Grace Hot Chocolate and my signature Ensaymada and Cheese Rolls!
Baked Goods
Mary Grace baked goods are made with only the finest, all-natural, wholesome ingredients. Each bread, cake, and pastry is Handmade and Homemade, without additives, colorings, or preservatives. The best part about it? They are baked with love and best shared with the ones closest to your heart.

Women's Can-DO Corner
What could be a stronger rallying cry from Mary Grace to mothers working from the home?

The miracle of a growing venture that can come forth from notes smudged with cake batter and a child’s doodles…

After years of moving her business from one stage to another, while caring for her family and community, Mary Grace hopes to do her bit part in upholding women’s “CAN-DO” abilities…

… her creativity and resourcefulness at a skill born from the center of her heart’s desire — from the very center of Home

On the lookout for these homemakers who are, at the same time, budding entrepreneurs, Mary Grace hopes to feature this special woman’s work, providing her additional income and spurring her to “CAN-DO” as best as she can!

Children's Corner
