Hi, I’m Amie.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.
For more than fifteen years, I owned a boutique bakery where I specialized in creating custom cakes for weddings and life’s most memorable celebrations. My work was known for its artistry—from elegant wedding cakes to sculpted creations that were as much works of art as they were desserts. I loved bringing my clients’ visions to life and being part of their most meaningful moments.
While baking was my profession, cooking has always been my passion.
Then life took an unexpected turn, and I found myself beginning a new chapter. As I rebuilt, I realized something that had quietly been true all along: although I’ll always be a baker at heart, the kitchen is where I feel most at home.
While I loved creating cakes that became part of life’s biggest celebrations, I discovered that the kitchen table was where my heart had quietly belonged all along.
The Baker Who Cooks wasn’t just the name of my next chapter—it became the story of finding my way home.
This space was born from that realization. Here you’ll find the recipes, traditions, gatherings, and everyday moments that have helped shape the life I love today. These are the meals I make for my family, the dishes I serve when friends gather around my table, and the recipes that have been passed down, adapted, and loved through the years.
But food is only part of the story.
I have always believed that the details matter. The same creativity that once inspired my cake designs now finds its way into the way I cook, entertain, and welcome others into my home. I love creating beautiful tablescapes, hosting gatherings that bring people together, and finding simple ways to make everyday moments feel special.
You’ll also find glimpses of life beyond the kitchen—from entertaining inspiration and home ideas to personal style, fashion favorites, and the little things that make everyday life beautiful. Because to me, food, hospitality, and style all share the same purpose: creating beauty, connection, and memorable experiences.
Today, I’m also building something I’ve dreamed about for years—a collection of original spice blends inspired by the recipes and flavors that have become staples in my own kitchen. My hope is that one day they’ll earn a permanent place in kitchens across the country, helping home cooks create delicious meals with confidence and ease.
Whether you’ve been here since I was simply “the baker” or you’ve only just discovered this little corner of the internet, thank you for being here. Your support, encouragement, and kindness have meant more than you’ll ever know.
My hope is that this space inspires you to cook more, gather often, and embrace the simple joy of sharing life around the table.
So pour yourself a glass of wine, pull up a chair, and stay awhile.
Welcome to my table.
With love,
Amie
