About Lalyta
I’m a baker, food photographer. I live in Maryland with my little family of four and our rescue dogs.
Since 2020, I’ve been sharing meticulously tested recipes and step-by-step tutorials, helping home bakers gain confidence in the kitchen.
My Expertise
Growing up, I spent hours watching my mother and grandmother work their baking magic in the kitchen especially their Pecan pie and irish soda bread.
As a self-taught home baker myself, I’m fiercely dedicated to providing well-tested recipes and sharing everything I’ve learned along the way. Before I post a new recipe, you can feel confident that I have already tested it dozens of times in my own kitchen. This is why Lalytarecipes has become a trusted resource for anyone who wants to bake from scratch.
My Journey
Born and raised in Philadelphia, PA, I settled in the Baltimore area after graduating from school with a B.A. in communication with a concentration in marketing.
I’ve written, photographed, and published more than a thousand from-scratch recipes.
Over the years, I’ve cultivated a reputation for meticulous recipe testing, ensuring that every bake you try has undergone multiple rounds of refinement before it reaches your oven.
Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions and helpful baking tips, because I want you to feel confident and be successful, whether you’re a first-time baker or a seasoned pro.
