Our Story

Golden Cactus Sweet Bites didn’t happen overnight. It is the realization of a long-held dream—one that quietly grew over years, across countries, kitchens, and memories.

My love for baking began in Venezuela, at home, alongside my mother and my sisters—extraordinary cooks and passionate bakers who believed that food should always be made with care, patience, and the very best ingredients. In our household, quality wasn’t a luxury; it was simply the way things were done. Butter mattered. Chocolate mattered. Freshness mattered. And above all, food was an act of love.

Years later, after moving to the United States, that foundation found a new expression. It was here that I first experienced artisanal cookies—bold, indulgent, creative, and unapologetically generous. Something clicked. I immediately recognized the connection between those cookies and everything I had learned growing up: respect for ingredients, attention to detail, and the joy of making something that brings people together. What started as curiosity quickly turned into passion.

In 2022, I lost one of my sisters to cancer. Her passing became a turning point—both deeply painful and profoundly clarifying. I knew then that I wanted to honor her legacy and the love for baking we shared by finally committing, fully and formally, to this dream. I completed professional baking training and began translating years of learning, memory, and emotion into cookies made with intention.

Every Golden Cactus cookie is crafted with premium, fresh ingredients and baked with the same care I grew up with—combining Venezuelan roots, American inspiration, and a personal story that lives on through each batch. These cookies are made to bring comfort, joy, and a smile to anyone who tries them.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

I hope you feel the love in every bite.
