In 2002, Kyveli Papaioannou decided to change her professional career and follow her dream. Her career began from a completely different field. After studying Business Administration with a specialization in Marketing at the University of Pireaus and completing her MBA in International Management at the University of Exeter she became a successful product manager and then brand manager responsible for some of the most famous/well-known brand names in Greece/worldwide such as De’longhi, Algida, and Lipton. In the end however, she decided to pursue her passion and love for pastry which, until this day, drives her creations.
