More about Fifi... "Fifi" is Phyllis McElveen. I was #5 of 7 children, raised in Middle Georgia, as an Air Force brat. My baking 'career' started during high school when I worked at a grocery store bakery. I was at the bakery at 4AM each morning, making doughnuts before school each day. On the weekends, I was able to work longer hours. The cake decorator was a Master Baker. She taught me everything she knew about cake decorating, candy making, etc. My passion for making creative, delectable treats started then. Throughout my life, I continued to bake, but mostly for family. I owned a small cafe in Jacksonville, FL for a short time. Most of my professional career was spent as a Project Manager for a large corporation. where I managed implementation projects worldwide. Fast forward to 2016, when I moved to The Villages. Best move of my life! After taking my delectable desserts to many events, I had several requests for cakes, pies, cookies, etc. In early 2017, I created Fifi's Cakes & More. Over the years, I have built a wonderful network of clients. All of my desserts are homemade and delivered to my clients. In early 2023, I started thinking about offering a Tea Party event. My Tea Party idea was to bring the Tea Party to my clients. My clients will provide the space/venue and I provide everything else...from set-up, tablecloths, cloth napkins, china dinnerware, silverware, food items and, of course, tea. My mantra has always been TOP quality and a BEAUTIFUL PRESENTATION, which is accomplished every time. Thus...Time for Tea by Fifi was born!
