EP 154: How to Show Up for Friends and Strangers During Difficult Times (Chef Tracy Wilk, Bake it Forward) - a podcast by Jen Glantz

My good friend, Tracy Wilk, joins the show today to be interviewed about a topic I think she's a superhero at. Plus, Tracy shares with us what the #bakeitforward movement is, how it started last year at the beginning of the pandemic, and the details of her new cookbook, Bake it Forward: recipes to bake kindness and sprinkle joy. 

 

Tracy graduated from University of Central Florida and was trained by Natural Gourmet Institute. She went on to work in the James Beard award winning pastry department of ABC Kitchen, making many ice cream sundaes while filling donuts at Flex Mussels. She later became the Executive Pastry Chef at David Burke Kitchen. As our world changed during COVID19, Tracy founded the global baking movement of #BakeItForward. Tracy's favorite things are wine, sprinkles, and the laughter of a shared meal with those she loves the most.
