Four years ago this month, I launched Just a Taste as a way to catalog and share my family’s recipes. Now, 288 posts, 2,584 comments, 30ย newsletters and one book later, the blog has transformed from a casual hobby into a career (and a serious caloric love affair). It has been an absolute pleasure and joy to become a part of the expansive food blogging community, both online and in person, and I am so thankful for each and every one of you who visits the site and shares the content I create entirely out of my passion and love for food.
Some of my earliest childhood memories revolve around my mom’s giant white stand mixer, which has churned out countless batches of Monster Cookiesย and vanilla cake mix cupcakes over theย past two decades.
Craving more? Sign up for theย Just a Taste newsletterย for a fresh serving of content delivered straight to your inbox each week! And stay in touch onย Facebook andย Instagramย for all of the latest updates. For all those who are just here for the sweets, check out my post on baking a giant cupcake cake (pictured above).
Disclosure: All opinions expressed are my own and I was not compensated monetarily for this post. I received a complimentary KitchenAid stand mixer in conjunction with this giveaway.
