So Carole did what she did best — bring
cake.
What she brought was her masterpiece
“Red Diamonds and Pearls cake”. The lay-
ered cake consists of layers of red vel-
vet cake upon layers of cheesecake, and
is topped with a cream cheese icing. The
cake was also featured on an episode of
Breakfast Television in 2011.
“We had such a lovely conversation,” says
Carole about Benoit Louis Vuitton. “He
just jumped into that cake and he loved it,
and invited us to Paris to have coffee with
them, anytime.”
Despite having left her teaching profession
a long time ago, Ogus continues to make
guest appearances on television and radio
to share her many experiences. Addition-

entrepreneurship at both the University of
Toronto and York University.
“It’s so gratifying to make something that
you know somebody else is going to enjoy
— that gives me a lot of pleasure,” Ogus
said.
