How it All Began

From Family Traditions to a Local Favorite: Shahin Sweets Box Brings Homemade Flavor to the South Florida Bakery Scene

Sunrise, FL – A new wave of artisan baking is rising in South Florida, and at the heart of it is Shahin Sweets Box—a boutique bakery known for its handcrafted cookies, custom cakes, fresh breads, and made-from-scratch scones. Founded by Shahin Kerendian, this small business is rooted in family tradition and driven by a deep love for baking.

What began as cherished childhood memories—baking holiday cookies with her grandmother, brownies with her mom, and learning cake icing techniques from her dad—evolved into a full-fledged passion. “My dad always told me, ‘Don’t be afraid of it, just do it.’ That stuck with me,” says Shahin.

Her first obsession? Chocolate. After an early visit to Hershey Park, Shahin began experimenting in the kitchen, dipping and baking anything she could in chocolate. Friends and family quickly became loyal taste testers. Eventually, their encouragement turned into orders, launching her first venture, Shacolat Konfections—a business focused on artisan chocolates and elegant confections.

As demand grew, so did her creativity. A single fondant cake request led Shahin to discover her artistic side, and her skills as a cake decorator quickly flourished. This paved the way for a new chapter: Shahin Sweets Box, a bakery that now specializes in a wide range of baked goods—from custom cakes for special occasions, to freshly baked cookies, soft breads, and flaky scones.

“At Shahin Sweets Box, everything is handmade in small batches using only the freshest, high-quality ingredients,” Shahin shares. “There are no preservatives—just real, delicious bakery-style flavor made with love and intention.”

This Sunrise, FL bakery is quickly becoming a local favorite for birthdays, events, gifting, and everyday indulgences. Whether it’s a beautifully designed cake, a box of cookies, or fresh artisan bread, Shahin’s creations are made to bring people together and make every moment sweeter.
