About Me

Hi there, and welcome to Cake Recipes From Scratch!

We’re Sarah Mitchell and Daniel Brooks—two friends who turned our love for baking into a cozy online space where homemade flavors shine.

I’m Sarah, a 33-year-old recipe creator from Nashville. My passion for baking began with my mom’s handwritten recipe cards and Sunday cakes filled with warmth and vanilla. I’ve been baking from scratch ever since—no mixes, just real ingredients and heart.

And I’m Daniel, 35, a food photographer from Seattle. For me, food is creativity, comfort, and connection. I handle the visuals, recipe testing, and sneak in a savory dish now and then.

Together, we built CakeRecipesFromScratch.com to help bakers of all levels create beautiful, delicious recipes from scratch.
