Taught by someone who’s actually done it!
Hi, I'm Dani!
When I started my bakery, I was running on sugar and spreadsheets — juggling orders, DMs, and late-night decorating sessions while wondering if I’d ever feel caught up.
​
Through trial, burnout, and a lot of learning, I built a business that now runs with structure and purpose (and still leaves room for creativity).
​
Now I teach bakers like you how to build businesses that work — so you can spend more time doing what you love and actually get paid for it.

Discover your Bakery Path
The quiz inspired by my real bakery journey...
When I started baking holiday cookies for friends and family, I had no idea it would turn into a commercial bakery producing 150,000+ cookies and teaching 1,200+ students.
​
I launched my business on January 1, 2019 under Oregon’s cottage-food license, upgraded to a full bakery license within six months, and in 2022 moved into a commercial kitchen I never believed I’d be able to own.
​
After seven years, a full team, and hundreds of thousands in revenue, I’ve learned this:
Every bakery business goes through stages.
And every stage needs something different.
​
That’s why I created this quiz—to help you discover where you are right now and what will help you grow next.
No more guessing.
No more spinning in circles.
Just clarity.
