My goal is to share this great opportunity with those who are looking to have the financial freedom they want to do what they love and those looking for a different lifestyle.

Now I know that God has given me the capacity and the wisdom to achieve whatever I want and that success lies on what I believe I am entitled to.

Hipatia Lopez, Empanada Fork

Hipatia Lopez is the inventor of a kitchen utensil that works as a pastry press known as the “Empanada Fork.” It is call Empanada Fork because it makes “fork like” impressions on the dough to seal the edges.

Her “idea” began around the kitchen table during the holiday season when her family was making 100 empanadas. She remembers complaining about how long this last step was taking. Her product is now sold through online stores such as QVC, Uncommongoods, and Mexgrocer. It is also available in stores over at LEBRON Restaurant Equipment & Supplies in NYC and Kerekes Bakery & Restaurant Equipment in Brooklyn, NY.
