Who we are

We are a mother-daughter duo who love baking together. Lyla started her baking journey watching me and quickly decided she needed to be more hands on. She then started helping dump ingredients into the mixer for me but always strived to be more independent. She then learned how to say “eegrents” also known as ingredients. She loved making her own concoctions out of any ingredients she could get her hands on and insisted on doing it herself. These concoctions tended to be quite the mess and were far from edible! I began searching for children’s cookbooks but ran into the same problem with all of them, Lyla is only 4 and can not yet read. 

This cookbook is the result of one persistent little baker and a mom determined to create something for her independent daughter. Lyla and I tested tons of our favorite recipes and came up with several small batch, simple, fun, and delicious options. 

We hope this book inspires and allows bakers of all ages to create something they can be proud of while promoting independence, creativity, and quality family time.
