My passion for baking was born in my mother’s kitchen where, surrounded by the sweet scents that floated through the air, I was fascinated by the creativity and tenderness that went into everything she made. From time to time she would let me help. "Be careful not to break them," she’d say when I handled the eggs. "Be gentle," she’d whisper to me as I mixed everything together. "Wasn’t there more?" she’d tease me when I brought her the chocolate – knowing it was my favorite and that I would sneak some from time to time. Soon I was baking myself. And I haven’t stopped since. Traditional family recipes, recipes from books and magazines, recipes I created myself adding my own personal touch, a particular flavor I liked, or a unique ingredient I found while traveling the globe. When holidays came around, no one wanted a gift from me. "Bake me something," everyone would say, "It is the best gift of all." Holidays, birthdays, anniversaries, dinner parties, any time there was a gathering of friends or family – my cakes, cookies, and pastries were always in attendance. Word soon spread and I was getting phone calls from friends of friends, people who had heard about my goodies, and people I hardly even knew. I decided to follow my passion and become a baker. Today, my small bakery produces delicious baked goods that are sold throughout the Boston area. I use only the finest ingredients available and are all hand made with ten fingers and one big heart. Thank you for letting me bring sweetness into your life
