There’s a big difference between a friend and a coach.
A friend will protect your feelings.
But a coach? A coach is invested in your growth.
A coach will give you the honest feedback you need
—not just what’s comfortable to hear.
A friend supports your dreams.
A coach helps you reach them!
Hi I'm Mae!
I started my Fake Bake journey with zero guidance—just passion and persistence. It took years of self-teaching, trial and error but it has taken me on an amazing journey!

• Collaborated with influencers with 1M+ followers

• Reached Top 10% of Etsy sellers with consistent ~$4,000/month income
And now it's your turn!
You don’t have to figure this out alone.
You don’t have to waste years guessing.
From Zero Sales to Top 10%: My Etsy Journey
When I launched my Etsy shop back in 2017, I had big hopes—maybe even a few dreams of instant success.
But reality hit hard: I didn’t sell a single thing. No traffic, no customers, and definitely no income. I know what it’s like to pour your heart into your craft and feel like no one’s noticing. It’s discouraging. It’s exhausting. And it almost made me give up. But I didn’t.
I kept learning, refining, and rebuilding—piece by piece. And slowly, things started to shift.
Fast forward to today: I’ve joined the top 10% of Etsy sellers and built a business that not only pays the bills—but funds my creativity, lifestyle, and goals.
Fast forward to 2024, I moved (hello chaos, goodbye routine!) and had to hit pause on my shop for six months. When I finally reopened with a small collection, I had no idea what to expect...
I generated over $2,000 sales in just one day
Turning your passion into a business isn’t just a dream—it’s absolutely possible. I’ve lived it, and now I want to help you do the same. Because here’s the truth: Creative dreamers are entrepreneurs.
You already have the heart, the vision, and the talent. What you need is the roadmap—and that’s where FAUX SWEETS ACADEMY comes in.
I created a business course specifically for us—makers, artists, and fake bake creators who want to turn our craft into a sustainable, profitable business. This isn’t a generic business class. It’s built from real experience, real mistakes, and real wins.
You’ve got this. And you don’t have to do it alone. Let FAUX SWEETS ACADEMY guide you from passionate maker to confident business owner—one sweet step at a time.
