About me: meet the baker
A note from the boss...
"Hi! I'm Mel, and I’m the owner and baker at La Petite Bouche Bakery. Baking has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a home where cake wasn’t something you would buy from a shop - it was something you made from scratch. I have so many wonderful childhood memories of days in the kitchen creating cake and carnage, where love and patience were as integral to my recipes as sugar and flour.
While I like to think that the kitchen carnage is behind me now, my appetite for baking (and eating!) cakes has only grown over the years. What started as a childhood hobby has turned into a lifelong pursuit, and I feel incredibly lucky to now call cake making my full time job. Love and patience - plus creativity, dedication, joy, and more - are still part of every cake I bake.
I believe cake should be more than just dessert - it should be a shared experience and a moment of joy. I hope that every cake I make spreads a little happiness, and that you enjoy eating my creations as much as I enjoy making them."
