Meet the Baker: Michelle
From a Quarantine Kitchen to 20,000+ Orders Worldwide
What started in 2020 as a simple COVID hobby quickly transformed into a culinary movement. Her very first batch, a delicate rose-flavored macaron, was shared with friends and family. Their enthusiasm was immediate, encouraging her to turn what had started as a hobby into something much bigger. Still, Michelle wasn't convinced. She wanted to know whether her desserts truly stood out beyond the people who knew her.
Determined to find the answer, she immersed herself in learning everything she could about the craft. She studied techniques, refined her recipes through countless hours of testing, and sought inspiration from renowned bakeries across California, New York, and France. Every adjustment brought her closer to creating desserts that reflected the quality, balance, and attention to detail she envisioned.
What began with a handful of orders quickly grew into a thriving small business built almost entirely through word of mouth and returning customers. Since then, she has handcrafted more than 20,000 orders, shipping her macarons and signature Jumbo NYC-style cookies to customers across the United States while becoming part of birthdays, weddings, holidays, corporate gifting, and everyday celebrations.
Passionate About Clean Food and Gut Health
Michelle's approach to baking goes far beyond extraordinary taste. With a background in Biomedical Science from Arizona State University, she views food through a unique lens.
In a modern food system where so many bakeries rely on cheap fillers, artificial preservatives, and inflammatory ingredients, Michelle takes a radical stand. She understands the crucial link between what we eat and gut health. Every treat she creates is crafted with only the finest, highest-quality ingredients. Her mission is personal: to ensure that people dealing with Crohn’s disease, autoimmune conditions, or sensitive stomachs can safely indulge and enjoy every single bite alongside everyone else without compromise.
