Hi, I'm Jennifer-wife, mom, blogger, and baker. There's never a dull moment in our household while I cook alongside my husband, two kids, and two dogs. They're a great source of inspiration for the stories behind my recipes, and I couldn't ask for better taste testers!
My baking specialties are cupcakes, cakes, brownies, bar desserts, and trifles. My blog also includes frozen desserts, such as popsicles, pies, and ice cream treats. Because I believe desserts should be enjoyed in moderation, I often feature healthier selections, such as smoothies, sheet pan suppers, and veggie rich salads. Take a look at my home page to check out my latest creations!
Feedspot named What's Baking, Babycakes? on their list of Top 65 Michigan Lifestyle, Food, Travel, and Things to Do Blogs in 2020! A large part of my blog's success can be attributed to the collaborations I've had with amazing food brands. I've had the pleasuring of teaming up with companies such as OREO, Hamilton Beach, Door County Coffee, Stella Cheese, and Immaculate Baking Company.
In addition to my blog, I am a Field Editor for Taste of Home Magazine. Every month I taste test recipes and submit my own recipes for publication. Since taking on this role, I've received the title Taste of Home Contest Winner on two occasions. Many of my blog recipes have appeared in Taste of Home Magazine and Taste of Home cookbooks. My Three Cheese Meatball Mostaccioli was featured on the front cover of Taste of Home Most Requested Recipes 2016. This past winter, my Hot Cocoa Cupcakes were published in Taste of Home Holiday and Celebrations Annual Cookbook. I was the featured field editor in Taste of Home June/July 2020 issue. You can read my interview here. Here's the links to some of my latest Taste of Home recipes:
S'mores Brownies
Cashew Chicken Sheet-Pan Dinner
Hot Cocoa Cupcakes
Key Lime Cupcakes
Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes
Ultimate Oreo Caramel Apples
Kale Slaw Spring Salad (contest winning)
Michigan Cherry Salad

I've also had the honor of guest posting on some amazing websites, such as Craft Box Girls and Hooray for Moms. Here's a few of my recent posts:
Raspberry Lemon Cake
Ghost in the Graveyard Cupcakes
Panzanella Salad
Reese's Peanut Butter Cake
Melted Witch Cupcakes
Although my blog has a food focus, I often feature lifestyle content. I love blogging about family, fashion, jewelry, health, beauty, and home and garden topics.
When I'm not in the kitchen, I'm at the park with my two rambunctious Papillons, traveling to Disney with my family, or watching Food Network! If you have any questions, please drop me a line! I'd love to hear from you! You can also follow me on Pinterest, Instagram, and Twitter.
