A Note from Marcy July 2018

 Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the July 2018 issue of Betterbaking.com! I have a habit that gets triggered each time I find a new passion, whether it be hobby or work related. My habit is called gathering. Depending on the endeavour, I gather research materials, tools and equipment as if I’m writing a Ph.D. […]

A Note from Marcy July 2020

  Hello Bakers and Friends, I trust all is well with you and you’re keeping safe. Baking makes me happy (surprise) and also seems to keep me out of trouble since these days since I won’t  even buy a drive-through doughnut and coffee. In Canada, you should know, some of our drive-thrus, including Tim Horton’s, […]

A Note from Marcy July 2022

  Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the July 2022 issue of Betterbaking.com! One of the ways I know it’s officially summer is because I’m temporarily    or chronically without A/C and I certainly feel it. It hardly makes me want to bake but I have been doing so despite. My need to bake is greater […]

A Note from Marcy June 2023

Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, When I began Betterbaking.com my salutation was Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends. Honestly, I find it a little formal and retro-sounding but I’ve held onto it because I can’t think of a better one and perhaps some things don’t need fiddling with. I’ve considered alternates such as: Hey all, or my YouTube favorite […]

A Note from Marcy March 2022

Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the March 2022 issue of Betterbaking.com! I like March because it’s one of those transitional months. It’s a white and icy squall or it’s crocuses and rain; it can be snowless, clear and cold and a day later, it’s winter double-downs its grip. The holidays in March are also […]

A Note from Marcy May 2021

Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the merry month of May 2021! I’ve created some really special things this month and I’m hard-pressed to choose a favorite recipe.
