Building a Creative Career: Cupcake Queen Candace Nelson

You may know her from incendiary baking competition shows such as Cupcake Wars and Sugar Rush , or perhaps you’ve had the pleasure of enjoying one of Candace Nelson’s signature Sprinkles cupcakes that made her famous. But this woman is much more than a pastry chef – she’s an entrepreneur, author, angel investor and more, and she details the best ways to “turn your passion into profit” in her new book, Sweet Success .
