About the Owner:
Pege Yates is a sugar artist, entrepreneur and product developer who has extensive experience in the confectionery arts industry. Having been featured on Food Network™, her work appearing in multiple print publications and her products showcased on award winning cakes, she aims at creating Edible Wow Factor that is Never Forgotten!
Background:
Pege Yates brings years of experience in party designing, baking, business management, creative marketing and event planning to the St. Louis area. She has a gift of identifying unique ways to celebrate life's biggest moments and loves creating specialty desserts, designs and themes for never forgotten memories.
Prior to coming to St. Louis, Pege worked as a Community Director & Account Executive for Crystal Coast Parent Magazine where she worked with large businesses, organized and hosted large events such as Fashion Shows, Magazine Cover Contest and worked with regional radio stations for promotions! She was also contracted through the State of Virginia’s Breastfeeding Taskforce where she held educational workshops and counseled moms from all walks of life on nutrition for themselves and their newborns. She also wrote television commercial scripts for a nationwide video production company, in addition to nearly 10 years in business management for an architectural firm out of Norfolk, Virginia. Once she became pregnant with her fifth child, Pege started Never Forgotten Designs to do what she loves, being creative and sharing her love of confectionery arts with others.
With her husband being active duty in the United States Coast Guard, transfer orders brought them to St. Louis area with their 5 children in 2013. This relocation became the perfect opportunity to expand Never Forgotten Designs to offer more than just graphic design, party printables and edible frosting sheets.
In 2016, The Studio by NFD opened in St. Louis, the brick and mortar design center with a commercial kitchen and retail space.
In 2017, Pege Yates partnered with Liz Kraatz to bring the Show Me Sweets show to the midwest, a confectionery art and industry convention.
In 2018, Pege Yates created Flash Dust© once she saw the industry was missing a edible glitter that had natural colorant. Flash Dust is the first Kosher Certified Glitter Dust that uses on natural colorant on the market. Later that year, Pege created Signature Drink Lab, a sub-company that focuses on beverage glitters, details and more with only natural elements.
Pege now offers retail products, specialty classes, sugar art, custom edible images and consulting services out of The Studio, in St. Louis, MO! Find her on social media and her Youtube Channel to learn more!
