‘A good baker’ Lianne Fernandes-Sears is all about intricate cakes and family

Lianne Fernandes-Sears

“She is all the things a good baker/caterer is,” one reviewer said of Lianne Fernandes-Sears and her works of art. The cake artist and owner of Lianne’s Cakes has a reputation in Guyana for having the most creative and scrumptious cakes.

While her customers enthuse about her one-of-a-kind cakes, Lianne shared the inside scoop on all the hard work and exhausting days when the only thing her tired body would let her do was cry, the thrill of creating cakes and designing them, and the special people in her life who her world revolves around.

The first eight years of her life were spent in Guyana before she migrated to Canada where she continued her schooling and later worked at a bank. She returned to Guyana when her late father fell ill, and it was then she met the love of her life who she later married. They now have four children.
