Baking has always been part of my life, thanks to my incredible mom, who was a talented baker. Growing up, I often found myself in the kitchen, watching her work and working along side her. But as much as I admired her skills, I was certain I would never follow in her footsteps. As a young girl, I associated baking with chaos; my mom was always busy.
Fast forward a few years into my marriage, and life took an unexpected turn. My husband and I made the bold decision to purchase a bakery at a farmer’s market. There was something magical about creating delicious treats and sharing them with the community. Those moments were filled with Joy, laughter, and the sweet aroma of freshly baked goods.
However our life took another unexpected turn, we moved to New Jersey. (Originally lived in Perry county PA) Which meant saying goodbye to our bakery. Although we sold our business, my passion for baking never faded. For six years, that love simmered beneath the surface, waiting for the right opportunity to resurface.
Now I’m thrilled to announce the launch of our brand, Zook’s Kitchen! Our mission is simple: to bring the joy of baking into your home with high- quality, delicious baking mixes. We’re starting with our classic favorite — our chocolate chip cookie mix. Each bag is filled with the perfect blend of ingredients to make baking easy and enjoyable!
Join us on this exciting journey as we share the love of baking and bring yummy mixes to your kitchen. Here’s to making sweet memories one cookie at a time!
Love, Kathryn Zook
