John and Renee Shelton
Beach Cuisine® , Inc. was started by Renee Shelton,
who met her husband at the Ritz-Carlton where they both worked. A professional partnership blossomed into a successful marriage with two darling daughters, and the marriage blossomed into a successful business. Renee lovingly created wedding cakes for happy brides for 6 years at the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel until the birth of their first daughter. Previous to her specializing in wedding cake design, she was responsible for all the desserts and mignardise coming out of The Dining Room Restaurant, then the only formal dining spot in Orange County, CA. Renee worked with Fabrice Cannele for two years in the formal setting. Prior to her 9 year tenure at the Ritz-Carlton, where she won the 5 Star Employee Award twice, she graduated with Honors from Western Culinary Institute. She also has an Associate in Arts, English Literature where she graduated with High Honors. Bringing both knowledge and a love for culinary arts together, Beach Cuisine® Inc. was born. Working with reputable vendors, and selecting products that are used in the professional kitchen has made the company a trusted one. PastrySampler.com is a Beach Cuisine® , Inc. owned and operated site, with Renee Shelton being webmaster,       content director and editor. She is the corporation's       CEO. Specializing in Pastry and a member of ICES,       she knows what is needed in a bakeshop, both at home       and in a professional setting. You can find her via       email at renee@pastrysampler.com, or in the kitchen       experimenting with cookie recipes with her two daughters,       and now her young son.
