My Dad was in the Navy and Fort Meade was the last base where he was assigned, just before I was born. I loved going to school on base because we had a good mix of cultures within the school. I have so many fond memories from attending Jessup Elementary and Meade Middle Schools, and graduating from Meade High School in 2002.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My love of baking began as a child, and my love of sweets and art led me to earn a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts from Johnson &amp; Wales University. After several years working as a pastry chef, I decided to pursue my dream of opening my own bakery.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2019, Sweet Eden Bakeshop opened its\u00a0 doors!\u00a0 With this bakery, our goal is to create something fun and positive to counteract all the negativity in the world. In addition to serving our customers from Anne Arundel county and beyond, I also enjoy giving back to the community. Recently, it warmed my heart to \u201cgive back\u201d to my AACPS community by providing cake pops to my alma mater, Jessup Elementary, for Back to School Night. I want to help everyone in our community to celebrate life, and I strongly believe that there are moments to be thankful for everyday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Love, Peace and Sweets!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-one-third fusion-layout-column fusion-column-last fusion-spacing-yes\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\"><span class=\"fusion-imageframe imageframe-none imageframe-1 hover-type-none\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Add-Kendra-Eden-Sweet-Eden-Bake-Shop-1.png\" alt=\"Kendra Eden - Meade High School Class of 2002 - Sweet Eden Bake Shop\" class=\"img-responsive\"\/><\/span><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I want to help everyone in our community to celebrate life, and I strongly believe that there are moments to be thankful for everyday.\u00a0&#8220;&#8211;Kendra Eden, Sweet Eden Bakeshop<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20560,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_expiration-date-status":"saved","_expiration-date":0,"_expiration-date-type":"","_expiration-date-categories":[],"_expiration-date-options":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[269,266,267,142,130,131],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20559","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-jessupes","category-meadehs","category-meadems","category-meade_stories","category-aacps_story","category-alumni_stories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20559"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20559\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20566,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20559\/revisions\/20566"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20560"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aacpsschools.org\/development\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
