Erika has been a fastidious, joyful baker for as long as she can remember. As a young girl, she would stand side-by-side with her mother, Carolyn, on her stepstool, carefully measuring out each ingredient required for the now renown rum cake.

 

In her culinary career, Erika has brought consistent delicious flavor to both savory and sweet quality pastries and baked goods -- whether working as the pizza chef in the bustling Bourbon Room of Santa Barbara, or assisting in prep for large catering events with catering companies, customers have consistently clamored for the rustic, flavorful creations that Erika delivers.

 

 Her attention to detail, creativity, and love of bringing beautiful things into being, blended with her brilliant compassion and care, result in a unique culmination of decadent baked goods and meals that bring with them consistently sublime flavors, accompanied with a heart-warming sense of hearth and home.
