She was born and raised in South America, but she spent most of her years living in Miami.  “Those who know me, know I love food.  Those who know me better, know I express my love through food.  Those who know me best, know I find joy in other people’s happiness, mudita.  Some say ‘I love you.’ I bake.”

Chiyon’s self taught, and she established Sugar Defined back in 2014.  Some of her most popular items are her brownie cookies, carrot cake, cupcakes, dulce de leche swirl bread, unicorn cakes and pavlovas.  That’s just the tip of the iceberg though.  Everything she touches is gold so you can’t go wrong with anything you get.

Her favorite pastry shops in the area are Bread Furst and Un Je Ne Sais Quoi, and she admires Gaston Lenôtre, François Payard, Jacquest Torres and Dominique Ansel.  “However, there are so many talented pastry chefs, many lesser known names and self-taught bakers that are equally talented.”
