The World's Greatest Pudding is Back!

Dainty Puddings (Formerly Pudding On Smiles)

Chef Mygi

If you visited the Dallas Farmers Market between 2016 and 2019, you likely heard the inviting phrase, "Would you like to try The World's Greatest Pudding?" Those who sampled our puddings knew instantly that they were enjoying a treat crafted to evoke warm, nostalgic family memories. With a variety of delightful flavors, it truly was the best pudding they'd ever tasted.

I'm thrilled to announce that I'm back with my famous thick and creamy pudding recipe—the one that made your toes curl with joy. My passion for the pastry arts has always been my driving force. For me, creating delectable treats that not only look fantastic but taste extraordinary is a true art form. The journey began in 2008 when I crafted my unique pudding recipe after being inspired by a family gathering. My Aunty's experimental cooked jello pudding with ginger snaps wasn't a hit, but it sparked my determination to perfect a pudding recipe that would amaze everyone.

After sharing my pudding at family events, work potlucks, and at my first bakery, "Mygis Bakery Cafe," it quickly became the star of every gathering. The consistent praise and demand made me realize I had created something truly special.

Life took a dramatic turn in 2013 when I discovered I was pregnant with my first child. Complications during my pregnancy required me to be on hospital bed rest, and my daughter was born a micro-preemie, weighing just 11 ounces. My focus shifted entirely to her survival and care. After nearly a year in the hospital, she came home with a tracheostomy and a g-tube, and we began our new normal.

By 2016, my daughter had surpassed expectations, and I was ready to reignite my passion for pastry. Revisiting my menu, I decided to explore a new direction for my pudding. Why couldn't pudding have as many flavors as ice cream or cheesecake? Determined to bring this vision to life, I started selling my unique flavors at the Dallas Farmers Market under the SHED. With the support of my family, our puddings quickly gained popularity, featuring flavors like Red Velvet, Triple Cookie, Matcha, Coffee, Cookies N Cream, and more.

Our success led us to grocery stores, starting with Royal Blue Grocery in Highland Park, Texas, in 2017, and eventually reaching the shelves of HEB Specialty Store Central Market in 2018. However, rapid growth brought financial challenges, and we had to close abruptly in 2019, with plans to reopen in 2020.

Then, 2020 happened. The pandemic, coupled with personal challenges, delayed our return. But now, in 2024, we are rebuilding from the ground up. Allow me to reintroduce Dainty Puddings (Formerly Pudding On Smiles), where I bring joy to family time through our delicious desserts. Join me in celebrating the return of Dainty Puddings (Formerly Pudding On Smiles), where every bite is magical, yummy, and crafted with love.

Welcome back to the dessert world of Dainty Puddings!
