“I like to bake, I’m not a bad baker, but cookies would do their usual thing – they’d spread, I was using nonstick pans, and I just didn’t know what was going wrong. Now I know why from learning the science behind baking! I tell everybody that if they want a recipe, HTH should be their go-to place to start!” – Becky Rudella
“Within the past year, I’ve gone from barely being able to successfully make a boxed cake mix, to baking twice a week for my coworkers, and twice a week for my local coffee shop! Everyone at work and in my community is loving the homemade treats I whip up.“ – Alyssa Williams
