MY STORY

Where It All Began

Baking has always lived in my heart.

Growing up, some of my fondest memories were made in my grandmother’s kitchen. The house would fill with the comforting aroma of freshly baked cookies, cakes, and holiday treats, creating a warmth that brought everyone together. Christmas was especially magical—she would bake tray after tray of homemade goodies, and I would eagerly wait to enjoy every bite.

My favorite was always her peanut butter blossom cookies. I remember carefully nibbling around the soft peanut butter cookie, saving the chocolate kiss for last. To me, that little ritual was pure happiness.

As the years passed, those moments became more than cherished memories—they became the foundation of my passion for baking. What started in my grandmother’s kitchen grew into a lifelong love for creating desserts that bring joy, comfort, and connection to others.

Today, every treat I bake is inspired by those early memories and the simple belief that something made with care has the power to brighten someone’s day.

OUR WHY

Why Baked & Bliss

"Baked" represents the handcrafted cookies, cakes, and desserts made fresh in small batches with care, creativity, and attention to detail. Every recipe is thoughtfully prepared using quality ingredients and a passion for baking.

"Bliss" represents the feeling I hope every customer experiences with that very first bite a moment of comfort, joy, nostalgia, and indulgence. Whether it's celebrating a milestone, gathering with loved ones, or simply treating yourself after a long day, I believe baked goods have a special way of making life a little sweeter.

Together, Baked & Bliss is your daily dose of bliss

Every order is made in small batches so i can focus on what matters most.
