Once upon a time in a town of Chernihiv, Ukraine, there lived a woman named Larysa. Larysa was a skilled accountant but has always been a baker at heart.

Tragically, as conflict engulfed her homeland, Larysa's once peaceful town became a place of uncertainty and fear. Faced with the harsh realities of war, Larysa made the difficult decision to leave everything behind in search of safety and a brighter future. She embarked on a challenging journey that would eventually lead her to the United States.

Arriving in a new country was overwhelming, filled with the complexities of adapting to a different culture, learning a new language, and rebuilding a life from scratch. Despite the hardships, Larysa clung to the one thing that brought her solace and joy – baking.

Determined to share the taste of her homeland with her new community, Larysa decided to start a baking business and share her story of resilience, compassion, and the indomitable spirit of a Ukrainian refugee who turned adversity into sweetness and light - through the universal language of food.
