Growing up, my mom was always baking the best cookies, pies, and breads. At a young age, I developed the understanding that nothing compared to homemade goodies, shared fresh from the oven. There was a certain magic that occurred every time I would bake with mom. Now that I have a family of my own, l experience the same joy whenever I set out to create a batch of something good. My daughters have grown up mixing, rolling, and making all sorts of scrumptious sweets. Ever since they were little, we have always said that using the best ingredients is, of course, very important, but the most important ingredient in any recipe is LOVE. Our kitchen is the heart of our home.

I’ve also enjoyed teaching art classes to many of the young children here in Golden, for the past fifteen years. A class favorite activity would include an edible art creation, which would allow the students time for baking something that they were very proud to bring home and share with their families. I feel blessed to have had that experience but am now ready to pursue a new passion.

Soozy’s Sweets was born out of the nudging encouragement and support of wonderful friends and family who have sampled countless recipes and have often told me to get my product out there.

This website will be offering two to three recipes each month, baked fresh in my kitchen. For anyone who has a hankering for a home-baked bite of satisfying sweetness, l would love to share with you. Recipes are time-honored, Ninke family favorites. Love is put into each batch.
