I think MooDeng would be so proud. š¦
Even though Iāve now had a few months to sit with the fact that Bodega Bakes won a JBFA, I canāt believe my cookbook cover is bedazzled!
As we near the 1 year birthday of Bodega Bakes, I am just filled with gratitude for everyone who helped me with this book, supported by buying or showing up to events or just shared words of encouragement.

If I could kiss the top of Mr. Beardās head I would! Thank you to the @beardfoundation for a gift that keeps on giving!

Itās ok to use imitation vanilla in your baked goods. Knowing when to add imitation vs pure vanilla extract is an art.
And also not everything needs vanilla extract. But thatās another post for another day! š®āšØ
What do you think? Are you team imitation or team pure? Let me know in the comments!

The system doesnāt know what to do with me.. but thatās ok cause I can build a seat at my own table. STEAL THIS RECIPE launches tomorrow May 12th on my new YouTube channel. Where I show you exactly how I make everything, the recipes, ratios and the why behind them.

There are things I wish someone had told me before I stepped into a professional kitchen.
There are baking rules that are gospel and baking rules that somebody made up and we all just.. went with it.
After years of doing this professionally I want to share some of my personal fav myths.
Swipe lol, and let me know which one you think is fact or fiction.
New episodes launch May 12th on STEAL THIS RECIPE.
