Born and raised in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Dominick discovered his passion for baking at a young age. One of his first jobs in high school was as a cake decorator, and it was here that he found his niche amongst everything the world of pastry had to offer.

After receiving a degree in Baking and Pastry Arts from the Culinary Institute of America (Hyde Park, NY), he worked across the country on various pastry teams, mostly in fine dining restaurants, including Canlis (Seattle, WA) and SingleThread (Healdsburg, CA). It was in these environments where he deepened his understanding of the art and science of pastry; growing significantly in his skills and raising the standards of his own work.

Lady Jasmine was born after re-discovering his first loves: cake & flowers. Bringing into this business with him is not only his expertise, but also his desire to honor the Earth, to create unforgettable moments for others, and to embrace the limitlessness of creativity.
