About Charlene!
Hello!
Welcome to “Bake it Well” where we make baking easy and enjoyable so that everyone with an oven may make it a daily habit!
I have also been lost and gazing at ingredients. You keep getting shop cookies because you want handmade treats but are unsure of your ability to make them. Does that sound familiar?
Together, we can break that habit and use any of our tried-and-true recipes to make something delectable from scratch.
Where It All Began
In 2019, I launched The Flourless Kitchen. I had to abandon the entire effort when COVID struck because of some harsh family issues. I’m back with “Bake it Well” now, ready to crush it and bringing some major heat!
I’m whipping up special sections for gluten-free goodies, totally inspired by what me and my own family needs to eat. And get this, I’m throwing in all my basic nutrition knowledge into these recipes too!
Practical baking combined with just enough knowledge from my school to create delicious goodies without the guilt is a recipe for success. I promise you’ll want to save all of my recipes to your bookmarks!
Baking With Purpose
I’m Charlene, the baker and brain behind “Bake it Well”. I do all the recipe testing and food photography for the site.
I graduated from Vienna University with a degree in Nutritional Sciences, then worked as a dietetic consultant for a few years. That background helps big time now since so many of my family members need special diets. When I’m not covered in flour, you’ll find me in my dark room seeing movies (total film nerd) or hanging with Greta, my cat who thinks she runs the place.
Making Recipes
I test Every recipe before publishing it. Well, I take pictures that show you the exact same steps until I know they will work in your kitchen. If something goes wrong, please let me know in the comments; I check them every day and will step in to assist in resolving the issue.
Our Goal!
I launched “Bake it Well” to share recipes that worked every time. There are no fancy ingredients or skills, just simple steps, lots of photos, and recipes that won’t go bad. People tell me they love how I walk them through every step, which is the whole point, making delicious food accessible to everyone, regardless of diet or cooking ability.
I make my recipes using what I’ve learned in college taking into consideration the purpose of making the recipe (reducing sugar, avoiding a specific ingredient, getting the best taste, etc.), and I write my recipes based on feedback from my family and readers.
If you notice my content is missing a part or a section, please do not hesitate to let me know, and I’ll be happy to fix it.
Baking Tools I use!
Take a look at my list of kitchen essentials for baking, on Amazon. I personally use and suggest these tools. They are reasonably priced and have a significant impact. Because you don’t need fancy equipment to make delicious treats.
