A Note from Marcy May 2022

Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends, Hola and welcome to the May 2022 Silver Anniversary Issue of BB! I trust our month apart has been well-spent and filled with special moments in and out of the kitchen. Although I would describe myself as commitment-shy I did some math the other day and it turns out I’m […]

A Note from Marcy May 2025

May 2025 A Note from Marcy Dear fellow bakers and friends, As a baker and a Canadian, I’m a fall-and-winter girl. I naturally identify with the ‘bakey’ seasons and those that call for endless cups of coffee, books on the couch and a background theme song those opening lyrics are: ‘preheat oven to 350 F’. […]

A Note from Marcy November 2018

Dear Fellow Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the November 2018 Issue of Betterbaking.com! For a Canadian who hosts (primarily) American readers, I’m having my annual editorial déjà vu. Didn’t I just chat up pumpkins and harvest last month? I thought so! But that was Canadian Thanksgiving. Frankly, one could do worse than a Thanksgiving rematch […]

A Note from Marcy November 2021

Dear Friends and Fellow Bakers,   Happy month of November 2021,  aka the month of gratitude, that is, if you’re eyeing American Thanksgiving up ahead or simply all about the upcoming Black Friday deals and grateful for bargains (spoiler alert – beware of supply chain issues this year) I confess, I used to be a […]

As you’d expect, I’ve been quite squirrely of late, creating the finest and most imaginative, seasonal recipes. If it was me giving me a review, I’d say […]

A Note from Marcy November 2025

Hi Fellow Bakers and Friends, Welcome to the November 2025 issue of Betterbaking.com! I trust this finds you well. Like many of you, I’ve been busy soup-making, ‘stocking up’ if you pardon the pun and I have the worn-out Sketchers to prove it. Nothing makes me happier (although many things make me as happy) than […]
