In fact, its name says it all. Sweet Scarlett Bakery & Café is named after Ogilvie's daughter, Scarlett, who died in February from birth complications -- the infant was just older than three months old. "Baking was always a hobby, something for me to do," said the 24-year-old, lifelong Oakville resident. "I was actually in school to be a lawyer and my parents wanted me to finish school, but with everything that happened with Scarlett, they decided to help me do this in memory of her." Since the bakery officially opened at 1495 Cornwall Rd., Unit 32, earlier this month, its fare has included the special Scarlett Cupcake. The vanilla cupcake with sprinkles costs $4, with 100 per cent of its sales revenue earmarked for Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids), where Ogilvie's daughter spent the first months of her short life. "The name of the bakery and everything we're doing for SickKids... it's in memory of her (Scarlett)," Ogilvie said. "Instead of dwelling on the negatives, I'm trying to do deal with things positively, and by bringing in SickKids -- she's still making a difference in the world even though she's not here."
