About Us

Who I Am 

My name is Jackie.  I was raised in a rather traditional Asian family that did not eat much cake or cookies for dessert.  I also cannot tell you childhood stories of “when I used to bake…” because my mom was not much of a baker.  Truthfully, our oven was a storage space for pots and pans 🙊.

In college, I made my 1st loaf of banana bread and got my first pink Kitchenaid stand mixer.  And soon enough, I fell in love with baking.

Baking is about precision and creativity which is how I would also describe myself.  I am a perfectionist at heart and I always put 200% of my effort into the things I do.

Why I Bake

I was born with a sweet tooth and a love for sweet BREAD!  I will never turn down a fresh hot Hong Kong pineapple bun or a chocolate chip cookie that just came out of the oven.  Also, I just love sharing desserts with others and seeing how much joy they can bring.

My love for sweets, smiles, and simple elegance has led me to become the baker I am today.

What I Offer

Over the past 10 years, I’ve had a diverse training experience that have all given me the skills and knowledge to bake delicious desserts today.  I attended a summer pastry camp course at the French Pastry School in Chicago in Illinois where I learned the importance of high quality ingredients and the fundamentals of excellent pastries, cakes, and macarons.  I also completed a summer course in Chinese cakes and breads at  in El Monte, California where I mastered fluffy light sponge cakes and light buttercream.  I’ve also taken a Viennoiserie course at the San Francisco Baking Institute where I learned how to hand make buttery croissants, danishes, and brioche.  To further my expertise and knowledge in the cake world, I will be taking a cake course with world famous Jasmine Rae Cakes in San Francisco in February 2019.

All of my experiences have given me the tools to create beautiful, high quality desserts that look good, taste amazing, and is not overly sweet!
