About Us

Our Story

Shemmex Joy Bakes & Catering is a family-owned business based in California, founded in 2019. We specialize in East African cuisine, offering delicious cakes and snacks for all occasions.

Our signature item is the classic fruit cake, which is beautifully coated in royal icing. Infused with rum or brandy, it remains moist and fresh for months, embodying the idea that “the older the wine, the better it tastes.” Our pastries evoke a sense of home and bring joy to any event.

Mission

We are dedicated to turning our customers' dreams into reality. Whether you need a classic favorite or a custom design, every cake we create is crafted to delight both the eyes and the palate. Our talented team is committed to delivering exceptional taste and quality.

Vision
