About

Hello,

My name is Amy! I am a professionally taught and experienced chef in both culinary and pastry arts. Specializing in catering, private accounts and parties.

I have been in the industry for ten years. Expanding in all different branches of the industry. I provide very personalized attention to detail. I specialize in menus geared toward mental and physical health facilities. Along with high volume bakery and catering experience. My business is very family friendly and our main focus is to provide food that brings people together. That’s what I love about my work the most!
