When I started this baking journey in 2011, I quickly found out that this is truly my passion...
I love the smell of the things I bake, I love the process of making things and the process of turning simple ingredients into not only beautiful creations but also tasty treats.
As I baked for friends and family, I realized that making other people happy was such a great feeling.
I briefly thought about having my own baking business, but soon realized, that my current job didn't allow the time to invest in making this a profitable business. So I continued baking for my friends, family and for the occasional donation.
Through social media, I was able to find out about Organizations that offer novice bakers the opportunity to bake for Charity....
There was the answer....
I will bake for charity and make others happy too with my creations.
I have the honor to currently bake for:
Operation Cookie Takeover: An organization that asks for cookies to be sent to troops oversees.

Icing Smiles, Inc: An organization that provides cakes and cookies to families impacted by the critical illness of a child.

This Spring, I will also join forces with:
Cookies for Kids Cancer: An organization that assists others in holding events in order to raise funds to assist in Pediatric Cancer research.

I am thrilled to be organizing a Bake Sale in Our Town where all the funds raised will be donated to Pediatric Cancer Research.
Below are the cookies I have donated, so far, to the first two organizations:
This is the set I sent to a Marine stationed outside the US for Christmas (2014) |
I sent this set to a family during the Summer of 2014 |
This is the set I sent a little girl having back surgery during the Fall of 2014 |
This is the set I sent two little girls in TX during the Winter of 2015 |
I hope they loved the cookies, as much as, I loved making them...
Looking forward to more projects and the upcoming Bake Sale!!!!
