When Kai Yang Chan and Jiayi Zhuo matched on Tinder at age 19, neither of them expected that it would lead to marriage. Six years later, not only have they tied the knot — they’re also business partners.
“I downloaded Tinder because I was very bored in school, so I was just [swiping] through during class,” said Zhuo. “Both of us — we didn’t expect that we’d get together,” she said.
“Personality wise, we are quite different,” she said, adding that while she is more introverted, her husband is the life of the party.
Today, Chan and Zhuo run Singapore-based bakery CakeInspiration. Their business brought in over 850,000 Singapore dollars (about $650,000) in 2024, and is on track to surpass $775,000 in revenue this year, according to documentation reviewed by CNBC Make It.
The company is known for its custom cake designs, and its clientele includes family offices, hospitals and even global celebrities.
