Welcome to Mix Whisk Bake, where every whisk, stir, and sprinkle has a story.
I’m Sorenna Blythe, the baker and writer behind the mixing bowl. My love for baking started long before I ever owned a stand mixer — back when I used to sit on a stool in my grandmother’s kitchen, watching her knead dough with hands that somehow knew exactly when it was “just right.” The smell of her freshly baked bread would fill the whole house, and I remember thinking it was the closest thing to magic I’d ever seen.
Years later, that same curiosity led me into my own kitchen. My first solo bake was a batch of chocolate chip cookies that came out flat as pancakes — but they disappeared faster than anything else on the table. That’s when I learned my favorite lesson about baking: perfection isn’t the goal, joy is.
Over the years, I’ve studied baking techniques, tested countless recipes, and experimented with ingredients until they finally came together in harmony. From mastering the soft crumb of a sponge cake to achieving that golden, flaky pie crust, every success (and every burnt edge) taught me something new. And that’s what Mix Whisk Bake is all about — helping home bakers of all skill levels discover the simple science, art, and comfort behind every bake.
Here, you’ll find practical recipes that actually work, honest tips born from trial and error, and the kind of encouragement you’d get from a friend who knows exactly what it’s like when your meringue collapses. I share my favorite kitchen shortcuts, flavor experiments, and baking guides so that you can bake with confidence, have fun, and maybe even fall in love with the process — mess and all.
Mix Whisk Bake isn’t just a baking site; it’s a celebration of every imperfectly perfect creation that comes out of your oven. So grab your whisk, roll up your sleeves, and let’s bake something worth remembering.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about what’s on the plate, but it’s about the memories we mix along the way!
