About Sweet Bite
Sweet Bite is a home-based bakery that has grown out of my love of baking and desire to create edible art for family and friends. While I have found a niche making special occasion cakes for various celebrations including weddings, baby showers, and birthdays; I am happy to bake pies, pastries, and any other sweet or savory treat your heart desires. I love to try new recipes and challenge myself with fun designs. While my cakes are pretty to look at, I strive to make them taste even better using quality ingredients! I hope you enjoy reading my blog and seeing what new sweet treat I have created in my kitchen!

Pie Contest Winner!
This past week I entered the Atchison Area Chamber of Commerce Farm-City Banquet Pie Baking Contest and I won! Technically I tied for first in the fruit pie category but a tie is still a win. I made a blueberry pie. My triple coconut cream pie took third in the cream pie category. Now, the competition wasn't equal to a county or state fair, but it felt great to win. It felt great because I'm not an expert pie baker. My husband reminded me that he has yet to taste one of my pies. I love pie! Both sides of my family love pie and there are some great pie bakers in my family. The competition in my family is fierce and I have never felt my pies can compete. Heck, why do I have to bake a pie when I can enjoy a pie baked by my Mom, my Grandma, numerous Cousins, or any of my Aunts? If only we could still enjoy my Grandma's apricot pie! I have entered pies in the Johnson County Fair but I have never won. So, winning felt great and it gave me motivation to enter a pie in the Platte County Fair this summer! Here's the prize winning blueberry pie straight from the Betty Croker cookbook. I kind of want a piece of pie right now!
