My Story....
I created this blog because I was motivated from my personal experiences as someone who bakes to reduce stress. Firstly, I have worked in a bakery for the past couple of years and have retained a significant amount of information from this job position. Before this bakery position, I did not manage my personal stress factors very well. Essentially, I did not have a motivating outlet where I could release stress. Cake, pastry, and bakery decorating became my method of stress release. Some of my typical stresses were caused from tough decisions, deadlines, or time management. When decorating at work, I managed to find enjoyment and a stress-free working environment. Additionally, outside of work, I started to bake and decorate on my free time because I found this to decrease my stress as well. I believe many people bake and decorate to release stress and it is also a great hobby.
Baking and decorating can be relaxing for several reasons. For example, anytime you combine ingredients such as vanilla extract, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, chocolate and so forth, you are filled with pleasant scents that can create positive feelings and memories. Even more, baking doesn't require a huge amount of mental effort, the measuring of ingredients, combining of recipes, and coordinating of various mechanical tasks require just enough thought to keep you from dwelling too heavily on non-baking concerns. I have found that baking isn't brain surgery, which is one of its chief benefits as a form of stress relief. If you make a mistake when preparing a batch of goodies or icing a cake, the worst that can happen is that you will have to start over which is not the end of the world. Furthermore, I want to educate you guys on a specific kind of baking and decorating: gluten free baking. I wish to serve this need because when working at my bakery I discovered a new high demand for special dietary products. The gluten free life style has continued to increase over the years, creating new product demands and a need for delicious recipes. At first, my bakery did not serve gluten free products because there was not a demand. When potential customers came into our bakery looking for gluten free products, they were disappointed. Most people who came in looking for gluten free products, they told us it was very stressful to discover somewhere to purchase a premade delicious gluten free dessert. Also, finding quick and delicious recipes were extremely hard to locate if they could not find a premade product to purchase. My bakery team decided to come up with gluten free recipes to serve our new market. I want everyone who comes across my blog to be able to find recipes and decorating ideas for gluten free baking.
My mission of my gluten free baking and decorating blog, will allow you guys to quickly discover delicious recipes and techniques. Also, my gluten free baking blog, can be an outlet where you bloggers go to release stress when discovering new recipes and ideas.
