Hi! My name is Vanessa - welcome to my recipe blog. I started Lola Vicky's Bakery in 2020. That proved to be a unique challenge with an apartment-sized fridge. Here’s a verbal montage: a never-ending stack of whisks and spoons waiting to be washed, sleepless nights spent fulfilling multiple orders from a micro-kitchen, capped off with vendor guilt for charging prices reflective of small business overheads. Ultimately, while it was fun, it was not sustainable. Now comes Part Two! Kain Na -- Let's Eat! While my vision for this project is evolving, and I don't currently see a bakery as an immediate goal, I do see myself continuing to write, cook, and bake. Hopefully getting a little bit better at each as I go. Join me as I keep my project alive and share recipes from both of my cultures (Filipino & Trinidadian Heritage) as well as appreciate others.
