Learn MoreTell us about your signature bake and why it's your most popular treat.
I'm a cake decorator at heart, and I love creating unique designs for every occasion. I make classic vanilla, chocolate or carrot cakes, but it's the decorating that brings them to life! I enjoy playing with colors, textures, and details to create a true showstopper. It's incredibly rewarding to see the reaction when people see their finished cake!
Who is your favorite person to bake for and what do you make most for them?
I love cooking for my husband and my little 4-year-old sous chef, who's been by my side in the kitchen since he was 2! We enjoy baking cookies together, but I always make sure to whip up a special birthday cake for each of them. And, of course, I love treating myself too! The kitchen is where we create memories and share love.
How would you use the $10,000?
I'd use it to upgrade my baking tools and equipment, maybe invest in a new mixer or some fancy decorating tips! But honestly, what I really need is a better oven and a reliable fridge to ensure my creations turn out perfect every time. That way, I can create even more amazing treats and take my baking to the next level
