**INTRODUCTION** To review is to critically Annalise something. Today am going to be reviewing a local business. Unlike a lot of review that is centered on big establishments, I have decided to go very local. Today I would be reviewing a growing business in my area. Well I choose not to call her business small because the Christian Bible says we should not forsake humble or little beginning. **How I got to know about the business and it's owner** Two months ago during my wedding preparations, my brother in-law came around to celebrate and help in the wedding planning. He kept talking about his new friend miss Chinemerem, along the street. On one faithful day, on my way back from the market I met him just outside the lady's business outlet and I took not of the shop. Ever since then I have observed how the business has grown in just a short while. ![IMG_20220602_121211_010.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQfeVUj48WCjBh8osRocymiRQ9yExFc9ciYUBWipbq1yC/IMG_20220602_121211_010.jpg) [What3words](///glorious.cobras.published) Melas Cakes and Events is just 3 months old.
