Baking

My passion for baking started when I wanted to do something fun, engaging and as a bonding activity with/for my husband and children. I really like how it relaxes and calms my mind after a busy week at work. The real excitement for is when I see my kids faces light up to the delights I whip up in my kitchen. As I wanted to experience more of those moments, I took up baking courses to sharpen my skills further and eventually, baking became my new found love.
