Our Story
Baking has been a passion of mine from the time I was a child, helping my grandmother drop cookie dough onto well-worn baking sheets. What began as a weekend hobby has flourished into a full-blown love affair with all things flour, sugar, and butter. Through The Traveling Spatula, I share this love with you, offering tried-and-true recipes, personal stories, and tips and tricks I’ve picked up over the years.
