About Us

Welcome to Baking Genes! We are so happy you stopped by:)

Sarah is a medical student, who has adored baking with her dad since she was a little girl. These days, her study breaks include lots of food blog reading, kale eating, and encouraging friends to sample her stress baking creations. Dave, her dad, is an electrical engineer. As a boy, Dave learned the secrets of the kitchen from his Nona, who introduced him to the world of Italian cooking. Today, her memory lives on through her succulent namesake chocolate cake and fried brown butter polenta with sage.

Together, this father-daughter team loves baking way too many cookies at Christmas, presenting cakes to friends on their birthdays, and never saying no to a bake sale. They often email each other with recipe recommendations, flavor suggestions, and photos of their latest kitchen creations. Now, they hope to share with you their favorite recipes, stories, and most importantly, their love of baking.
