I’ve always loved to bake for other people.
I had this dream of baking huge batches of things and selling them to people or contributing them to bake sales. I love to try to make new things. I love the smell of sugar and cinnamon baking away in my oven. I love the magic of taking a batter that’s three or four ingredients and baking it for just a few minutes to create something amazing.
The only problem? Baking is not as big a deal here in Paris. I can bake for my friends, but the idea of baking things to sell is not very well received here, even just for bake sales.
Which is why I’m going to take a page out of Ivonne’s book over at Cream Puffs in Venice: I’m offering my services to anyone in the New York area for Christmas cookies, cakes… you name it, I’ll bake it. Contact me at tomatokumato@gmail.com, and we can discuss what you’d like and when you’d like it.
Merry Christmas!
