Name

Michael Poupouzas, 20, Pastry Chef at Nikos Quality Cakes.

Your greatest achievement and how you reached it

My greatest achievement would have to be getting my TAFE certificate in cake and pastry. I had to study very hard for three years.

Goal for the future

I would like to someday have a cake shop of my own.

Best moment of your life

The best moment of my life was going to Greece and seeing my culture.

One word that describes you the best

The one word to describe me would have to be ambitious.

Persons you most admire and why

My mother and father for always being there for me and my siblings Denise and Yianni for providing us with everything we need.

Most embarrassing moment

My most embarrassing moment was when I lost a dare and had to walk around in Borat’s bathing suite.

If I could say anything to the Greek community…

Come to Nikos Quality Cakes for a sweeter life.

Favourite place to go or hang out at

I enjoy going for a coffee at Sienna Cafe on Chapel Street.

Song that I can’t get out of my head at the moment

My favourite song would have to be Savin me-Nickleback. I just went to the concert and it was great.

Favourite Greek food

My Yiayia’s pastisio and anything she makes.

I can’t live without… 

My friends and family.

If I was Kevin Rudd for a day I would…

Establish a national loukoumada day in Australia. Believe the hype, my nutella loukoumades are amazing.
