Like many bakers of wedding cakes today, Heny began her professional life as something else – an economic researcher and financial analyst. Soon after, however, she was drawn to her natural passion and found herself teaching baking and cake decorating, and making birthday and wedding cakes. It was in 1985 when she began the Heny Sison School of Cake Decorating and Baking. She stands as the country’s premier cake designer and pastry chef because of the numerous schools she attended, experimenting with recipes, and traveling around the world to learn from the best.
