Holiday Gift Guide: The Bake Off
I am a pretty decent cook, but I don’t do it often because frankly, I’m not much of a foodie. However, baking… that’s a whole other world.
I love to bake because I love to eat sweets. But we all know what happens when you bake 2 dozen cookies and eat them within 24 hours.
I was so excited when I learned about Bake Me Healthy. It is a subscription box that sends you all of the necessary ingredients to bake something delicious, healthy, and vegan.
It usually takes me a solid hour to bake something. From getting all of the necessary ingredients together, to reading the recipe 75 times to make sure I have it right, to measuring everything, it is a long process. The Bake Me Healthy box makes it so easy, hassle-free, and convenient. I just had to add a couple of ingredients from home like eggs and butter.
I couldn’t believe I was making tahini ice-cream sandwiches. I would have never thought it would be so easy. After mixing up all of the healthy ingredients sourced from small businesses, I popped them in the oven and had delicious ice-cream sandwich cookies 15 minutes later. I added my favorite green-tea ice cream (skipped the sprinkles this time) and went to town. I probably could have stopped eating once we finished the photos, but… why? These are actually healthy!
I loved working with Bake Me Healthy. It is such a fun twist on the basic food subscription box options out there. What a perfect holiday gift for the person in your life who loves to bake, or who has kids and wants to do fun activities with them. There are subscription options at different price points, so it’s a super easy gift option.
Not only is Bake Me Healthy fun, yummy, and healthy, the brand also gives back. They invest 10% of profits in Hot Bread Kitchen, a New York City organization who seeks to expand skills, connections, and life-changing opportunities for women and small businesses.
These are the types of gifts I like to give. Ones that make an impact greater than benefiting the pockets of massive corporations. Helping small businesses help small businesses, all while enjoying delicious treats. It doesn’t get any better.
