Waiting for Blancmange

Liz extends a warm welcome to her channel, where she eagerly shares a collection of her favorite desserts, recipes, and culinary insights. As a self-taught home baker, she firmly believes that every day should begin with a slice of cake. Drawing from cherished family recipes passed down through generations, Liz has been delighting friends and family with her baking creations since childhood, with her husband now serving as her trusted taste tester.

As an American expat residing in the UK for over two decades, Liz brings a wealth of baking experience influenced by her Italian American and Southern heritage. Guided by the invaluable tricks and tips imparted by her mother and grandmothers, she showcases a rich tapestry of recipes and baking techniques rooted in her diverse cultural background, including a sprinkle of British influences acquired during her time living across various regions in the UK.

Originally hailing from a quaint rural town in Maryland near the Pennsylvania border, Liz's culinary journey is deeply rooted in her southern upbringing, thanks to her mother's North Carolina heritage. Growing up, she savored a blend of dishes reflective of both her parents' family traditions, with a touch of Maryland flair courtesy of the beloved Old Bay seasoning, emblematic of their adopted home.
