She has hot wheels — and sweet treats hot out of the oven.
Christina Padrazo, a 37-year-old from Long Island, is gaining recognition by serving cakes and cookies to high-profile clients, including Amy Schumer and “Giggly Squad” hosts Hannah Berner and Paige DeSorbo, as well as Brock Davies and Scheana Shay from “Vanderpump Rules.” Her unique setup is a bubblegum pink, 1964 Shasta Airflyte trailer.
“I had this vision of putting desert in a vintage camper,” Padrazo told The Post.
Hailing from East Setauket, Padrazo left her corporate marketing career in 2019 to dedicate herself to her baking venture. She invested approximately $30,000 from her personal savings to transform a vintage camper into a mobile dessert kitchen.
Her big break came in 2022 when she slid into Berner’s DMs on a whim.
Recalling her approach to securing her first major celebrity event, Padrazo shared, “I messaged her saying ‘Yo b—h, you’re getting married in the Hamptons – can I please attend your wedding? I have this really cool 1964 camper.’ I thought of it as the ultimate way to take a chance. That’s what she’s known for. She responded to my DM within minutes and agreed!”
Berner gave her full creative freedom to make a three-tier, half chocolate-half funfetti wedding cake adorned with fresh blooms for her wedding to fellow comic Des Bishop, 49.
It opened the door to more celebrity intros, and, eventually, Padrazo saved up enough dough to open a standalone bakery, The Treatery in Jamesport, Long Island, in late 2022.
Last year, a Netflix producer personally called her about making a cameo in Amy Schumer’s “Kinda Pregnant” movie. They asked her and her trailer — whom she calls Stella — to appear in a scene at Wollman Rink in Central Park that featured Schumer and co-star Will Forte.
“The producer said, ‘We love Stella and we need her for this role. Have you ever heard of Amy Schumer?’” recalled Padrazo, who went on to make chocolate chip cookies, croissants, cake-sicles and cheddar chive biscuit for this role.
Never afraid to put herself out there, Padrazo popped up at the Barstool Sports office in a Knicks jacket earlier this year to serve up her mini chocolate chip cookies to “Chicks in the Office” podcast co-host Ria Ciuffo.
It paid off. She got a shoutout on air, and Cuiffo loved the sweets so much that she hired Padrazo to create custom mini chocolate chip cookies for her wedding guests earlier this month.
Padrazo, who is Sicilian-American, learned to make Italian pastries, such as rainbow cookies, pignoli and zeppole, growing up.
After losing a pregnancy in 2020, she found solace in baking and growing her business.
“I almost died. I had an ectopic pregnancy,” she said. “I named [my trailer] Stella because that would have been my daughter’s name.”
While she’s sold everything from gourmet grilled cheese to her special Doughlato hybrid pastry — a warm brioche donut stuffed with gelato — wedding cakes make up most of her business these days.
“This year’s trends are wild – fruit on cake with these abstract, thick textures,” she said.
She credits her success to Berner’s sweet support. When she was nervous about appearing in Schumer’s, she texted Berner, who urged her to just be herself.
“It gave me confidence to continue shooting my shot,” Padrazo said. “Bake it till you make it!”
