Elizabeth Escalante
Owner & Head Baker
Home cook and foodie, who (like so many others) created her own sourdough starter during the pandemic in 2020. Home baking quickly became a passion and now is growing into a community based business in Peachtree Corners, GA.
About Me and Food
We ate well growing up, but it wasn't until I was married that my father started really hitting his stride in the kitchen. About that same time, I was almost religiously watching Rachael Ray and Alton Brown (and just about everyone else on Food Network during those years.) I finally bought good knives and cookware, and discovered how much I really enjoyed being in the kitchen. And loved making delicious food for family and friends.
I love simmering something low and slow on the stove, placing a big pot on the Big Green Egg, putting together charcuterie spreads for grazing, and just being at home with food.
During the pandemic, I decided to try my hand at sourdough, even though I never considered myself a baker. And now, it is one of my favorite things. I love maintaining my starter, the smell of freshly baking bread, and trying new things. Recently, after being asked for years by people to do so, I have started offering my breads for sale. It is one of my greatest joys to be able to share this love with all of you.
Things Dad Says
My Father, Foodie Inspiration
Even before we became a couple of chefs, my dad has had a way of expressing his appreciation for good eats (reference intended) that is almost legendary in our family. Be forewarned that if he tells you something is "nasty" or "not any good AT ALL" you are going to want to get some before it's gone.
