Anna's Story

From the Amalfi Coast to Glastonbury

Anna's journey began near the picturesque Amalfi Coast in Italy, where she developed a love for baking at a young age. Fascinated by "American" treats like pancakes, she spent hours experimenting in her family’s kitchen. Learning from friends and extended family, Anna mastered a variety of traditional Italian cookies, perfecting recipes for every occasion.

Culinary Training and Experience

Though largely self-taught in her early years, Anna pursued formal culinary education in Naples, Italy, in the early 2000s. This training was complemented by real-world experience managing the kitchen in her family’s restaurant and hotel. These experiences honed her skills and deepened her culinary knowledge, making her a versatile and skilled baker.

A Passion Shared with the Community

After relocating to the United States and starting a family, Anna was eager to share her culinary creations with her new community. She founded Anna's Sweet Creations, quickly gaining a reputation for her delicious and beautifully crafted baked goods. From themed cakes to muffins, scones, cookies, bars, and cupcakes, Anna’s menu is as diverse as it is delightful.  Anna can often be found at a stand at a local Glastonbury farmer’s market, but if you don’t get there early, there’s a good chance her booth might be sold out!

Baking with Creativity and Precision

Anna is always on the lookout for new and interesting recipes, never shying away from a kitchen challenge. Whether you crave savory or sweet, Anna has the skills to bring your vision to life. Her specialty lies in themed cakes – if you have a dream for the perfect birthday cake, Anna can make it a reality.  Be sure to look at the images of custom-baked goods she’s done for other customers.
