A Layoff, a Cake Decorator and a Strawberry Cake: How the Sherman Family Built The Ambrosia Bakery

Plenty of Baton Rouge birthdays have ended with a slice of strawberry cake from Siegen Lane. The story of how that cake got here starts with a job loss. Felix Sherman worked his way up from delivery route truck driver to branch manager over 27 years, learning how to lead a sales team along the way. Then a company merger took that job.

The two New Orleans natives opened The Ambrosia Bakery on Dec. 1, 1993.
