Jennifer Shea

Jennifer Shea has been baking tasty treats since the 4H fairs of her youth. Fast-forward to 2014 and this busy mom to Fleetwood (6), has opened six cupcake shops, written a book, and has had her Trophy Cupcakes featured everywhere from Vanity Fair to The Food Network.

Where she’ll be on a sunny day: Shea and her family love riding their bikes along the Burke Gilman Trail to different lakeside picnic spots.

Her must-have mom product: The locally-made Love + Salt Beach Hair and Body Mist tops Shea’s must-have list. She says that when you close your eyes it’s like being transported seaside for that “on-demand, one-minute getaway that every moms needs.” She totally knows us!

The best thing about being a Seattle mom: "There are so many things to do and see in and around Seattle, from the mountains to the water, to the city sights and seriously delish food. You could go on a new adventure every day and still have a must-do list a mile long. Seattle truly has it all!"
