Parul's Desserts is based out of Marietta, GA and is owned by Parul Benders. When I first met Parul at a networking event about a year ago, I was in awe from her custom offerings. Parul's Desserts focuses on providing businesses with an opportunity to market their companies through dessert offerings. I have seen some unbelievable branded cakes and cupcakes that were created by Parul.

On a personal level, Parul is Bengali and Haitian and a mother of 3 boys. She enjoys traveling and spending time with her family and friends. You can find Parul sipping cocktails on the beach or networking with fellow entrepreneurs.

Located on Washington Road in East Point, GA, Sammy Cheezecake has been a staple in the community for many years. I first met the owner Sammy during a Symposium where he shared his story. From humble beginnings of selling cheesecakes out of his truck in the hot Georgia heat, Sammy went on to open his own store several years later.

When you stop by to get some of his awesome desserts, take a look on the wall and you'll notice a picture of Sammy with Chick-Fil-A Founder S. Truett Cathy! If he has the time, ask him to share the awesome store of how Mr. Cathy became a personal mentor.
