COMPETITION: World Dessert Championship
As a home baker, I spend much of my week pouring over recipes and writing new recipes to try. Every week I bake for my family and friends and enjoy sharing my love that way. And it is a true labor of love. I often get asked why I don't open my own bakery shop or sell what I make. My answer is always the same...I bake only for the love of baking and not because I want it to be a job. I also am a force to be reckoned with as I have many baking and cooking contest wins under my belt. I love what I do and do what I love with everything that’s in me!
