OUR STORY
It was the summer of 1979 when I made my first wedding cake. I went to Upper Buck Vo-Technical School for baking and graduated in June of 1976. I always loved to be in the kitchen doing something with food. Family dinner would be ready when my mom came home from work. But it wasn't until I went to school for baking that I realized that's what I wanted to do. My father was a Chef, but my Grandmother could and would make anything she wanted without a recipe. I remember playing outside and smelling the homemade hot rolls, the cookies, cakes, and her famous cherry roll. I had a love for sweets, and that's how I grew to do more baking than cooking, but I can do both very well.
Becoming a diabetic in 1999 has changed how I bake. I bake sugar free, when requested. It gives me great joy to be in the kitchen doing what I love to do, making something from scratch with all natural ingredients. I went to JNA Institute of Culinary Arts in Philadelphia in 2006 and entered an apple pie contest at Sickles Market in N.J. and won third place. That same pie won me Fan Favorite at Pearl S. Buck's International Taste of the World in May, 2014.
I bake all types of baked goods and desserts, but my favorite is all different types of pound cakes. I also bake sugar free, gluten free and vegan baked goods. Check out the Craft Boutique at Moyer Farmhouse in Chalfont, PA, for some of my cookies and pound cakes.
