About

Born and raised in California, going to school in the slightly cooler Illinois.  I love to bake, cook, churn, play around with food.  A little sculpting here and there.  Maybe some origami.

My sous-chef Bro also enjoys a little paper art, and is very handy with a double boiler.

Naomi, Eli, and Hannah S. are also exceptionally talented with a spatula.

    If only I could be there to try it! I totally agree–the best thing about layer cakes is the filling! You should post about those treats you made for the girls sleepover!

    :) I’m so impressed and proud to be your friend. I had no idea that your work was so epically beautiful. Your pictures are amazing and the food looks divine–you have outdone yourself. I wish I had asked you earlier about your blog, I would have loved to try some of these recipes over the summer when I had more time. Really though, your talent is quite inspiring. I shall now proceed to continue looking through this delicious website.

    Love.

    The non-vegan in my vegan self is drooling? Did not have any idea that your “hobby” is actually an awesome talent, Nina! This is great, plus my mom may just be your number 1 fan. Want to be adopted by a slightly neurotic, overprotective Jewish family in Northern New Jersey? Just say the word!

    I enjoyed your Bakelist and would like to taste it. We are still going to Cafe D’Alsace regularly and look forward to taking you there before long.

    Love,
