A Note from Marcy June 2021
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the June 2021 issue of Betterbaking.com. Thanks to those of you who signed up for the May 2021 Special of the 2-yeares of BB for the one-year price.

A Note from Marcy June 2022
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Welcome to the June 2022 Issue of BB! Summer is in full swing here in Montreal and for many of you around the globe except for my friends in places such as New Zealand and Australia where it’s coming into fall. But as you lovely Aussies (hi Diane!) and Kiwis […]
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 June 2024
Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the June 2024 issue of Betterbaking.com. This is a very unique issue for me because big surprise: about a week ago my oven literally exploded! Consequently testing new recipes for this issue abruptly ended in ah, a flash. So what happened? In a nutshell as I was taking […]
A Note from Marcy June 2025
Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the June 2025 issue of Betterbaking.com! I’m in a mid-spring, early-summer mood in the kitchen and the recipes this month reflect that duality. In fact, that’s also the twin nature of the month of Gemini. For those of you who are Geminis or have a couple of them in […]
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 March 2025
Dear Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the March 2025 Issue of Betterbaking.com! This is a packed month of baking holidays from Mardi Gras, to St. Pat’s and Purim to. My recipe archives are replete with countless Irish Soda Breads and Purim Delights and yes even a King’s Cake so enjoy. In the meanwhile, here […]
A Note from Marcy May 2020
Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers, Happy May and welcome to the Taurus issue of Betterbaking.com. Have you ever had so much to say and then the time comes to speak and you’re all tongue-tied or you simply forgot the stuff on your mind? That’s me a lot of the time but so much more so […]
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. The Blackberry Jam Cake with Caramel Icing is a classic from the southern kitchen where buttermilk-based, blackberry cakes still appear in Southern baking cookbooks. If you like any […]
