"A Plano bake shop whose cake decorator has stayed on through the coronavirus pandemic and drawn a large online following by posting simple, instructional TikTok cooking videos filmed with an iPhone propped on books. The clips cover a wide range of dishes—everything from crispy pan-fried tofu and fudgy chocolate cookies to steak dinners and spicy ramen—and have racked up hundreds of thousands of likes. The decorator’s cooking is rooted in early experience competing in the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation’s ProStart program and in Italian and Polish family traditions. While some viewers criticize her rough-around-the-edges technique, she emphasizes that her priority is making food that tastes great, and most feedback from followers has been highly positive, with many asking for more videos." - Amy McCarthy
