After 15 years as an award-winning pastry chef and restaurant owner, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition and told that I needed to go gluten free. I spent years converting my award-winning recipes to gluten free, and making all of the mistakes along the way so that you don’t have to.
I have been featured in numerous publications and TV shows, including five appearances on Food Network and now I am sharing all of my knowledge and experience with you.
