The baker behind the bakehouse

About Leanna

A kitchen story about family recipes, real ingredients, and desserts made from scratch.

The why

It started with her grandmother's recipes

Inspired by her grandmother's handwritten recipe cards, Leanna started baking as a way to feel close to home. During the quiet of 2020, that comfort became a calling, and a small batch of cupcakes for neighbors turned into a waitlist.

Today she bakes bespoke cakes, cookies, and cake pops for weddings, birthdays, and every milestone in between. Every order is still mixed, baked, and finished by hand, exactly the way she was taught.
