Desserts on a Mission

My name is Francesca and I have the ultimate sweet tooth. This blog is primarily about me and a couple of friends traveling through Manhattan to taste and review on desserts at the bakeries we encounter. I chose to start this blog because there are many reviews on various restaurants throughout New York City, but rarely do you come across one that is solely dedicated to desserts and bakeries.

I truly enjoy the art of baking, as well as the tastes of the finished product. I come from generations of bakers. When I was a little girl, I was taught how to bake, from cookies to cakes and everything in between. Ever since then, baking has been one of my passions.

I also decided to review bakeries because one of my favorite bakeries closed down years ago and it has been difficult to find one that meets their standards of freshness and customer service. Not only did their pastries and cakes taste phenomenal, I worked there for four years, making the experience more memorable. I loved working there simply because I was behind the scenes of creating such art and was able to learn different baking techniques from the bakers. That experience has given me the ability to taste different desserts and know the difference in flavors and texture.

Baking is a form of art; no is no right way and no limitations in what you can create.
