“My love for baking began when I was in university. I was introduced to “raw food” and loved discovering good-for-you desserts–made with organic fruit, nuts, and unrefined sweeteners. This led to my first business, Unbaked Cake Co. and later, I developed the first vegan baking course for George Brown College in Toronto. Some of my favourite flavours to bake with are cinnamon, anything apple, and chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, of course!
