Vegan Baking

About Me

Describe Yourself

I'm a vegan home chef & baking connoisseur. I live in the "meat & potatoes" country also known as Chicagoland, with my fiancé, a chihuahua named Rose, and 2 playful cats, Storm and Ransom. I started a vegan baking business, Ransom Cakes, which specializes in vegan cupcakes and cookies. I'm an obsessive day-dreamer and inspire to one day own and operate my own vegan cafe and bakery.

Interests

Explaining to people what I use instead of eggs, butter and milk and coyly smiling at their amazed faces as they bite into a vegan baked good. Obviously, I enjoy baking, cooking; I also love farmers markets, freshly and locally grown produce, and natural health.
