I am extremely honored that you are visiting my website. I have been an entrepreneur for thirty five years and would like to share with you some of the wonderful experiences I have had in my career , and as part of the celebration of the 25th Anniversary of my company, Lulu’s Dessert Corporation, I have been working on a special project. I wrote a book titled Thriving Latina Entrepreneurs in America that is available at Amazon.com, Borders, Barnes & Noble and other booksellers nationwide.

I have attended many conferences as a speaker, and always received requests for more information from people who want me to share my insightful story of triumph and tribulation. Also, I want to leave a legacy for the next generation of entrepreneurs so they can have a better idea of the risks and compensations that small business owners experience.

The intent of the book is to inspire the public. From people contemplating opening a business in the US to people who leave their countries, to those growing their business to people in school who want to have their own business one day. In this book I share my story as well as those of seven outstanding Latina Entrepreneurs in a variety of industries. They are innovators, actively running their companies; we are all living our American dream.

If you would like to try some of our delicious gelatin, flan and rice pudding desserts you can look for them at your grocery store in the refrigerated section or visit our www.lulusdessert.com to find a store near you.

Wishing you the best of success in your lives.
