About us
In 2020, I embarked on a baking adventure with Bake it by Giovannellis, fueled by my deep passion for baking and cooking. It was during this journey that I discovered my love for teaching and sharing my recipes, tips, and kitchen tricks, which led me to create Ashley's Place. I truly believe that food has the power to bring people together, regardless of their backgrounds. Through food, we can share a piece of ourselves and our heritage with the ones we love. The simple act of offering someone a cup of coffee or a delicious cupcake can brighten their day and make them feel special and cared for. Even a humble office birthday celebration can unite colleagues, taking them away from their computer screens to enjoy a moment of cake-induced joy. The kitchen also holds a special place for children, who delight in being a part of the cooking process and creating cherished memories. It warms my heart when my family gathers around the kitchen, eagerly awaiting a taste of what I'm baking.
This profound love for food is what I aim to share with all of you through our classes and recipes. I want to show you that you don't have to be a professional baker or chef to create delicious food at home. In fact, you don't even need prior experience. All it takes is starting with something simple and gradually building your confidence. Countless individuals who have never baked before in their lives have used my mixes and marveled at their own creations. For me, baking isn't about striving for perfection (especially when baking with kids), but rather about finding joy in the process. No one truly cares if your meringue is slightly lopsided or your cookies aren't perfectly round; they're simply focused on savoring every bite. So, I invite you to explore our classes, where you can learn fantastic baking recipes, pick up a few tips and tricks, and most importantly, have fun. I want you to feel like a valued member of our community, as if you were truly stepping into my place.
