Proud of where she is now, Kimberly says she didn’t start out by showcasing her work on the Food Network, but rather the humble beginnings of The Butter End in a 200-square-foot home in Venice, CA. It was a small but mighty group of women who came together as a family to create magical and delicious cakes.

Additionally, they offer classes and workshops for any interested students.

Talking a little about her ex-husband, Adam was born on October 6, 1965 in Wellington, New Zealand. He is a business owner and a cycling enthusiast.

On Adam’s 52nd birthday, Kimberly posted a photo of him with their two adorable dogs on FB, captioning it, “Yes, it’s this guy’s birthday today! This shirt belongs to our friend Sachiko who just came here to teach a fondant class! Happy Birthday, Adam!”

Talking about her outstanding features, Kimberly has blue eyes, brown hair and a well-proportioned body.

Kimberly Bailey Cancer

In 2008, Kimberly felt a lump in her breast. But she wasn’t really worried because she had a history of cysts. However, on her return trip to NYC, she went to see her OB-GYN, where she was diagnosed with a benign tumor.

After several months, she went to the doctor again and after several tests, they also said that the tumor was benign. But because it was growing, she opted for an excisional biopsy to remove the entire tumor. Unfortunately, they found that the tumor was malignant.

The baker was also pregnant at the time, so she made plans with her doctor to have Bailey born a little earlier so she could start chemotherapy as soon as possible.

Do you know: Kimberly’s mentor, Susan Carberry, who invited her to join her (winning) team at Ultimate Cake Off when she was diagnosed with cancer, herself was diagnosed with cancer in October 2022.
