About Me

Welcome to Ariane Bakes, my baking, cookie decorating and teaching business. 

​

I’m Ariane, the baker and cookie artist.

​

I spent my childhood on a plantation where we were surrounded by sugar cane and fruit trees. Having grown up with abundant creativity and sugar in my family, delicious treats were often on hand.

I immersed myself into baking to fill the quiet evenings when my husband worked on a job that kept him away from home for weeks on end.

I spent over 25 years working in the corporate world before logging out and picking up a piping bag to turn my hobby into a way of life.

​

I am self-taught and credit my mother, maternal grandmother, a few brilliant local cookie artists, cakers and bakers, YouTube, Pinterest and Instagram for inspiring and teaching me much of what I know about baking.
