On Monday May 6, 2013, my Granddaddy passed away.
I just wanted to take a moment so everyone could meet the man behind Sugar Lump Cakes, my Granddaddy, Clifton Mangrum. He was my biggest supporter in anything and everything I did or wanted to do. Being the oldest Grandchild, I got spoiled quite a bit.
My entire life, he called me “Sugar Lump”. I would walk in, he would say, “There’s my Sugar Lump!” I would reply, “There’s my Handsome Man!”
When I decided to get serious about cake decorating, I wanted to make a website to showcase my cakes. So, I had to come up with a name for the site.
I was throwing around some ideas with a friend of mine, and she said, “Doesn’t your Grandpa call you Sugar Lump?” OMG, there it was the whole time… Sugar Lump Cakes!
I ordered some business cards, and started my website, www.sugarlumpcakes.com.
On his 80th Birthday, March 25th 2008, Sugar Lump Cakes actually began, with a Pineapple Coconut Cake shaped like the #80. I gave Granddaddy a business card and told him that he named my cake business years ago, and he didn’t even know it. He just grinned. He was so proud of us all.
He will be greatly missed, but a little bit of his love for me goes into each and every cake I bake!!
Thank you everyone for allowing me to share him with you!
Please contact me anytime! I look forward to hearing from you.
