Ginger
Kitchen Lead
Ginger followed her dreams right into the food industry several years ago and has been with Flirt specifically since early 2023. Your custom cupcakes were most likely decorated by her! When she's not busy baking and decorating up a storm, you can find her out and about with friends or curled up at home with her cat Reilly while reading her favourite book. She's also recently discovered a love for audiobooks.

Steph began working at Flirt in 2014. While she ventured off into other areas, her passion for baking brought her back to Flirt in early 2022. Steph's fav Flirt memory was being asked to create custom cupcakes for Blink 182 while they were in town and receiving tickets to see the band in return! Steph and her husband are expecting their first child in early 2023 (our very 1st Flirt baby!). In her spare time, she loves building complex lego and diving deep in reality tv.
