“There is no better way to bring people together than with desserts.”

About My Blog
I decided to write my blog about my favorite desserts because since I was little I have always loved to cook and eat them! When I was young, my grandmother taught me how to prepare different desserts like cakes and brownies; in my family it was a tradition to cook for all special days like happy birthdays, new yearโs eve and Christmas together with my cousin and my grandmother a special dessert for our family and friends. Overtime, I started to love more and more cooking desserts and experimenting with ingredients to create my own recipes. My favorite desserts have always been the cheesecake, the ice cream and the crepe because these desserts give me the opportunity to have different types and flavors of each one as I can prepare them with different ingredients and toppings. In few words, this blog gives me the opportunity to share different recipes, facts and the history of each of my favorite desserts with everyone who wants to read my blog!
