Hi! I’m Sara Baker

I am a passionate pastry chef an am always up for any challenge. With over a decade of culinary experience, the pastry arts have allowed me to combine two of my loves—baking and artistry. Making delicious beautiful things is my passion.

I first learned how to bake with the guidance of my beloved grandmother in a small town near Roanoke, Virginia. After moving to Richmond in 2008, I started pursuing my dream in pastry arts and graduated with my Associates Degree in Culinary Arts in 2013.

With a constant determination to perfect my craft, I have worked in many bakeries and kitchens creating delicious treasures. These include Lunch & Supper, Richmond, VA; SweetFix Bakery, Richmond, VA; Sugar & Salt, Richmond, VA; Whole Foods Bakery, Wilmington, NC; Milner’s Cafe, Wilmington, NC, and Salt & Charm, Wilmington, NC. I have also competing on the tv show, “Santa’s Baking Blizzard” which aired on Food Network in the winter of 2020.

Fun Facts:

  • I lived in Richmond, VA for twelve years and moved to Wilmington, NC with my husband, Michael, in 2020.

  • I loves all things vintage, kitschy décor, making wreaths, salt water fishing, cats, traveling, the great outdoors and Roadside America.

  • “Snack Time” was a nickname given to me while working in kitchen for my love of snacks.

  • The Mandalorian is one of my favorite shows.

  • My two favorite desserts are French Silk Pie and Tiramisu.

  • I love singing and listening to 50’s and 60’s music. And one of my favorite bands of all time is the Four Tops.
