hi my name is gianna, but a lot of my friends call me gigi.
I am a self taught baker born and raised in Southern California. Growing up I was always inspired to bake anything whether it was making a cupcake look like a duck (iykyk), creating the solar system out of cake pops for a 5th grade science project or being so extra when it came to decorating gingerbread houses every Christmas. I just always gravitated towards anything that was remotely similar to baking.
It wasn’t until the end of 2023 when I was introduced to a different ballpark of baking. There are so many amazing talented culinary professionals that I look up to such as Claire Ptak, Natasha Pickowitz and Lucie Franc de Ferriere – these ladies have taught me that there is so much more than just vanilla and chocolate cake and have inspired many of the flavors and techniques I utilize in my tiny kitchen today.
I am so happy to get the opportunity to bake for my community and connect with fellow home bakers like myself.
Thank you so much for the support and I’m so happy to have you here. :)
