Welcome!
I’m Alissa!
A baking & lifestle blogger
I grew up in the Chicagoland area with hot summers running through a sprinkler, crunchy fall leaves, cold winters with soft glittery snow, and the Earthy wet smell of spring. The midwest is a beautiful place that shaped me and my love of baking.
I have to give credit to the amazing support system that always encouraged me to try new things. It drove me to get a degree in marketing and then a master’s in library science. It drove me to improve my baking skills, find confidence in cake decorating, study photography, and learn how to build a website.
When I look at my tiny corner of the Internet, it makes me reflect on what I want you to take away. I hope I can be a safe place that has some cozy vibes with nice pictures to look at, and a sense of “I can do it too!” Looking at the world with wonder takes a lot of courage but don’t forget that we’re in it together.
Check out all the things I’ve been doing lately.
Behind the blog
My Home Baking Business
I used to be a home baker! It all began by making sugar cookies and decorating them for a bee themed baby shower. Next thing I knew, I had people I’d never met before texting me if I was available for business.
It was an amazing experience to be such a huge part in people’s special occasions. That experience challenged me to improve my baking and decorating skills and I will be forever grateful for it.
