Get to Know Us
Kamusta ka po? I'm Tianna Gonzales, the proud owner of Tamistea. At just 22 years old, I've turned my lifelong passion for baking into a dream come true. Established in 2022, Tamistea has grown from a home bakery into a welcoming storefront. With a heart for hospitality and love for Christ, my goal is to serve you all with the same kindness and care that God shows me. I'm thrilled to share my talents with you and create a warm welcoming space here at Tamistea. I can't wait to meet you and share my passion in every cup and treat. I'm excited to see where this journey takes us! God bless you.
With love,
