Robyn Darrel Groenewald has been included in Marquis Who’s Who. As in all Marquis Who’s Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Ms. Groenewald has distinguished herself as the founder and master decorator of Bohemian Robsidy, a business she established in 2021. Since its inception, she has been responsible for running the enterprise, overseeing both baking and decorating operations. Her expertise in piping buttercream flowers has set her apart in the field, earning recognition for her artistry and technical skill. Under her leadership, Bohemian Robsidy has experienced significant growth each year, a testament to her dedication and vision.
Among Ms. Groenewald’s most notable achievements is the creation of a wedding cake featured in Time magazine in June 2026, an accomplishment that stands as a highlight of her career. She takes even greater pride in the consistent expansion of her business, reflecting both her entrepreneurial acumen and commitment to excellence. Her work has garnered attention from several prominent publications, including features in Voyage Atlanta in 2023 and 2025, Atlanta Jewish Times in 2025, Bold Journey Magazine in 2024, CanvasRebel Magazine in 2023 and Shoutout Atlanta in 2022.
Notably, sustainability is central to Ms. Groenewald’s approach to business. She favors reusable piping bags over disposable ones and is thoughtful about the packaging she chooses, a practice she believes distinguishes Bohemian Robsidy from other bakeries in the field.
Prior to founding Bohemian Robsidy, Ms. Groenewald worked as a market researcher. Her transition into the culinary arts was inspired by observing others create floral cupcake bouquets online, which motivated her to pursue cake decorating professionally.
Ms. Groenewald’s educational background includes a culinary degree from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts, earned in 2021. This formal training provided her with the technical foundation necessary for her success as a baker and decorator. She also holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in marketing and communication from Rissik Business School in South Africa, completed in 2003. The combination of culinary expertise and marketing knowledge has been instrumental in building and promoting her business.
Reflecting on her career, Ms. Groenewald attributes her achievements to the ongoing support of her family, her enthusiasm for learning and curiosity about new techniques. She values connecting with people through her work, finding joy and fulfillment in bringing happiness to others with her creations.
Born in Harare, Ms. Groenewald has been civically engaged as a donor to cancer charities for two years and battered women’s charities. During her free time, she enjoys reading and gardening. Looking ahead, she envisions expanding Bohemian Robsidy by opening a store with a coffee shop and bakery. Currently working from home allows her flexibility with her family, but she remains excited about future opportunities for growth as circumstances evolve.
Ms. Groenewald is proud to have built her business entirely from the ground up. In recent years, she has taught herself to design an array of buttercream flowers, steadily developing her skills alongside the financial, marketing and design sides of her operation. This self-directed growth has allowed her to scale the business gradually and sustainably each year. She recently welcomed her first employee to assist with baking cupcakes, marking an important first step in her expansion plans. While Ms. Groenewald has run Bohemian Robsidy as a solo operation up to this point, she recognizes the need for additional support as the business continues to grow.
