About Us


Hi, I’m Neka Holmes, founder of Experience Nek’s.

I’m a senior professional assistant with Southern roots and a deep love for the kitchen, whether I’m cooking, baking or hosting.

My recipes carry the spirit of my mother, my grandmother and every woman who taught me that love can be stirred into every bite.

I created Experience Nek’s to bring people together through flavors and moments that feel like home. What started with homemade desserts has grown into a brand that blends food, storytelling and meaningful experiences.

We offer:

  • Homemade sweets - including pralines, banana pudding and signature desserts
  • Custom cocktails - bar-inspired cocktail recipes for gatherings or gifting
  • Intimate catering - cozy, soulful events made special
  • Professional services - including “pick my brain” sessions, admin assistant mentoring, and behind-the-scenes support for leaders and entrepreneurs
  • Flavors & Footnotes - an evolving cookbook series sharing recipes rooted in memory, tradition and lived experience
  • The Bar Friends Co. - (Coming Soon!) conversation cards and cocktail culture for real connection

I saved you a spot, because everyone deserves to Experience Nek’s.
