I have yet to meet a single person that doesn’t like cookies. Cookies are happiness and memory makers. Seeing the joy that they create is what has fueled my passion for baking. 

I started baking when I was a young kid, sometime around 9 years old. Remember “The Joy of Cooking”? That was my very first cookbook that I dove into. I baked everything I could that we had the ingredients in the house for. I truly started to learn my way around the kitchen though in the time that I spent with my Italian grandmother, Grandma Nancy. Summers were spent learning to make some of her family favorite recipes, helping to make cakes for family parties, and then making some recipes of my own. MEMORIES. Those memories fueled a passion. 

I’m excited to offer you a twist on some timeless cookies, as well as some that I have created myself. Classic cookies are my passion and I have crafted each recipe with you in mind. I had my own bakery for 8 years in Colorado, before we made the big move to the Upstate. The memories of that bakery, the cookies I baked, the people I met. That has furthered my passion and propelled me to open a bakery here in South Carolina.

So please, take a look at what I have baked up and put in my cookie jar just for you!
