What Inspired You to Make This?
We were founded at the tail-end the end of the pandemic because I missed the joy of baking for others. I began my baking journey by baking for friends and family, then school groups and parent-let meetings. Through the encouragement of others and their enjoyment of my baked goods I realized that I could make business. Upon learning about the Cottage Food Operation permitting process I found my pathway to becoming a professional baker. I hope to have my very own brick and mortar location in the near future.
