Hi, I’m Angelina Sims, the creative heart behind Little Cup of Heaven Cafe and Bakery, where we serve "Comfort Foods Made From The Heart." Growing up in Minnesota—the land of hotdishes and dessert bars—food was always about connection and tradition. My favorite memories are of time spent in my grandmother’s kitchen, where the warmth of the oven matched the warmth of our family gatherings. It’s that feeling of nostalgia I aim to capture in every dish I make—food that feels like a warm hug from the past.  For me, that is my Grandmother’s Pumpkin Bars, which are pure heaven.

Before pursuing my passion for food, I spent 10 years working in specialty veterinary medicine. During that time, I developed invaluable skills, like staying calm under pressure, managing stressful situations, and giving careful attention to every detail. These skills have helped me approach my catering business with the same dedication and care, ensuring that every event is handled smoothly and every dish is served with love.

Now based in beautiful historic St. Augustine, Florida, I combine my Midwestern roots with Southern flair to create dishes that celebrate both comfort and creativity, such as our Tater Tot Hotdish (affectionately referred to as Midwest Shepherd’s Pie by many of our southern customers) and Biscuits and Gravy Hotdish. My menu is filled with familiar flavors that bring people together.  

For personal and health reasons, I began finding ways to make my favorite baked goods and hotdishes from scratch, rather than relying on pre-made mixes and condensed soups full of chemicals and preservatives. This shift to wholesome, from-scratch cooking laid the foundation for my catering business, where I focus on real ingredients and flavors that feel as good as they taste.  

I believe everyone should be able to enjoy comfort food, no matter their dietary needs, which is why I offer gluten-free, vegan, and keto options. After all, comfort should be available to everyone.

Whether I’m putting a fresh twist on old favorites or perfecting traditional recipes, my goal is always the same: to make each meal feel like home. I want my food to remind you of those simple moments spent around the table with family, sharing something made with love.  

Let me help take the stress out of your next gathering with personalized catering packages that will leave a lasting impression. Whether it’s a cozy holiday meal or a casual celebration, I’d be honored to create something special for you.  

Let’s make your next event unforgettable—because comfort is more than just food, it’s a feeling we all deserve.
