About
Hi, I’m Annalise and I love to bake. Welcome to my blog!
I’m not sure how I stumbled upon my passion for baking. It just happened, I guess. Suddenly I was buying cookbooks and surfing the web for recipes and ideas. I started venturing out into unfamiliar territory, baking all sorts of delicious things. From scratch. And I loved it. Still do.
Besides a very brief experience in culinary school, I am almost completely self taught. Most things I’ve figured out for myself, learning by trial and error. I hope to inspire other people out there, to let you know that anyone can bake. If I can do it, you can too!
I’ve got a sweet tooth that cannot be tamed, so consider yourself warned, you’re going to find a lot of desserts here. Life is just better with sugar and butter.
I currently call Salt Lake City, Utah my home. I live here with my husband, Steve, and our dog, Pi. When I’m not in the kitchen, I love to watch artsy movies and spend time outdoors. My guilty pleasures are cheap white wine, microwave popcorn, and red licorice.
Contact me! I love to hear from my readers.

I’ve been following you for about a year now. I have tried so many of your recipes and am genuinely excited every time you post something new. Thank you for being my “go to” whenever I need to get ideas for something new!
Congratulations on all of your recent changes from making babies and the new site! May you continue to inspire and prosper.
Jenifer, thank you for the very kind comment! You’ve made my day!
Annalise, stumbled here looking for a cherry chocolate cake recipe. Adapted mine to include your cherry filling. FANTASTIC.
Coincidental fact: I lived in Utah (Cedar City) for five years. Loved it, but it took some romancing. Currently in St. Louis, MO.
Your photos are fab, your recipes clear to follow, and your grammar is amazing.
Hi Annalise, I just found your blog, and I absolutely love it, starting with the title
You have wonderful recipes! I also stumbled upon my love of baking from scratch very much by chance and only recently, so it’s very inspiring to see your site, when someone with a similar story have achieved so much. You have a new follower 
. I’ll be back soon.
