About Us

My name is Amit and I've been a baker for over 20 years. I started working at my father's bakery when I was 9 years old.
Over the years I have had many home bakers asking me for assistance. I was always glad to help. After answering so many questions, with the help of my wife Dana and my father, we decided to start this blog to help the home baker with their baking problems and answer their questions the best we can.
