Learn MoreTell us about your signature bake and why it's your most popular treat.
I am a pumpkin girl! Doesn’t matter the time of year, a delicious pumpkin cream cheese cookie that melts in your mouth can and should be eaten year round. A pumpkin sugar cookie with cream cheese pumpkin filling inside rolled in pumpkin spice galore.
Who is your favorite person to bake for and what do you make most for them?
Nothing better than baking for my dad, he hype up my treats like no other. The best thing to bake for him is my lemon cake with raspberry coolie with a rich vanilla buttercream on top.
How would you use the $10,000?
I’d pay off my college debt and buy my first ever kitchenAid!
