Biker Chic Cupcakes

About our classes

Hi there! I’m Kristin, the owner, baker, and creative behind Biker Chic Cupcakes in West Des Moines, Iowa. My path into baking wasn’t exactly traditional. My professional background is in healthcare, including pharmaceutical sales and healthcare administration, and I earned my master’s degree in Health Care Administration from Des Moines University. Then 2020 happened. Like so many others, I was unexpectedly laid off for a few months during the pandemic. With more time on my hands, I started baking and decorating, and something just clicked. What began as a side hustle eventually grew into a full-time business that I ran for several years. Today, life has come full circle. I’m back working full time in healthcare, specializing in mental health, while continuing Biker Chic Cupcakes as my creative side business. I specialize in custom sugar cookies, cupcakes, and cakes, all made from scratch and designed specifically for the occasion. Whether it’s a wedding, birthday, baby shower, corporate event, or simply something fun, I love creating pieces that feel personal and memorable. Because Biker Chic Cupcakes is now my side business, I take on a limited number of orders so I can give each one the time and attention it deserves. When I’m not working or creating, you can usually find me riding my motorcycles, traveling, going to concerts, cheering on the KC Chiefs, or blasting hard rock music with the windows down or cranked up in the studio during a long decorating day. Biker Chic Cupcakes started during an unexpected chapter of my life and became an important part of my story. Getting to create something that becomes part of yours is still one of my favorite things about it.
