Hello and welcome to TassyBakes!
I’m Tassy (yep, that’s my full name) and I started this blog as a complete baking amateur back in 2013. I was a slightly bored English student at the time and the majority of my creations were improvised in a predictably ill equipped kitchen and fed to my gannet-like housemates.
What started as a hobby soon turned into an obsession and I found myself writing recipes and photographing food at every spare moment. I then decided I would quite like to make a career in the food industry, so after my graduation in 2015 enrolled in the professional chef diploma at Leiths School of Food and Wine.
Since leaving Leiths in July (2016) I have been working in food full time and am still growing my blog. I aim to get my tested recipes out each week and hope they inspire you (whether that be through flavours or decorations) to get into the kitchen and get baking.
Please let me know if you try out any of my recipes- I’d love to see your results.
Thanks for stopping by and please come back again!
Tassy

Hi Tassy – just wanted to drop by and say thank you for following my blog – I really hope you enjoy it 🙂 I love that your blog is so versatile and hope that in time mine will become a little more versatile too! Still finding my feet at the moment but enjoying it every step of the way 🙂
What a lovely idea for a blog, Tassy. I studied and lived in Nottingham for many years. I loved it there.
Thanks for stopping by! Lovely blog, though the first few food photos are making me hungry!
Thanks for stopping in at Three Ladybugs Play and following!!! Love your blog!
Thank you for visiting my blog. Will look forward to reading more of your blogs..
Hi! Thanks for following my blog. I love the fact that you’re interested in art history; if I were to go back for a doctorate, that’s what I would choose. The photos on this About page alone are making me hungry! I think I’m going to enjoy exploring your blog, especially the Art and Photography section. The emphasis on versatility is great.
Thanks for following!
Thank you for visiting Chiconia and following me! I hope you find some Nice Stuff there too. I do love your baking projects, but will have to work on adapting them for my own GF needs.
Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I nominated you for the Blog of the Year Award. I love reading your posts and recipes, and can’t wait to see what you will be making in 2014! 🙂
Hi Tassy! Thanks for visiting my blog and following it! I love your blog and the beach themed cake is amazing! It was hard for me to believe that you made something as spectacular as that for the first time! I look forward to exploring your blog more, it looks lovely! Thanks again and a happy new year!
Hi Tassy, Thank you and I’m glad are following my blog. I like your blog too and look forward to seeing what Nice Stuff you share.
Hello, thanks for following. Your cakes look wonderful.
Hi, just wondered where you were studying? Also at university and having to put baking to one side, so am quite curious!
Hiya, I am at Nottingham, yourself?
Leeds. What are you studying?
English with art history. What about you?
A pleasure to meet you. I write about history, but have many interests beyond that – especially that cupcake you have pictured here!
Thank you so much for liking my first blog post and following my blog! I literally just started today so you can only imagine how excited I was when I saw that update! I must say that you are extremely talented and we have very similar interests. Is London just as beautiful as I imagine? I live in the states and am dying to travel that direction! Would love if you could do a post on your favorite past-times from your hometown! Take care and keep in touch!
That’s OK I was new to this about five months ago too! Thankyou very much… my blog has been taken over by baking over christmas but I will have some different posts soon. London is amazing yes, I love it here. Oh wow where do you come from? My brother has been living in Miami for the past ten years and has just come home- he loved the US. Thanks again and I look forward to more posts from you.
I am originally from the Midwest. Missouri to be exact but I ventured out to California a little over 5 years ago so living in similar weather conditions like Miami. If you ever get the opportunity, you should def visit. It’s beautiful.
Thanks for following! I have many eclectic interests too and will follow back:)
Thanks for stopping by Supper With Nana, my new food blog. I followed you too, can’t wait to read your posts. Thanks again, Kathy (Nana)
Thanks for showing interest in what I put out too. I sincerely hope you continue to find my works entertaining & pleasurable. Be safe.
Hi!

Thank you for following Meike’s Kitchen! This is all new and exciting stuff. Love your gingerbread mansion, ny the way. It looks fantastic.
Thanks for visiting MyKentuckyLiving. Please drop by often. Sheila
I like your blog, and thanks for the follow! But I’m curious why you would follow my blog since yours is so happy and mine is super depressing.
Cheers! Well, I’m not blinkered- I know very well not everything can be happy, I just miss out the bad stuff- I find how people write about the negatives interesting though I guess as I wouldn’t know how to express some things!
Thanks for following my blog…I only had time to browse yours and def. will continue visiting i enjoyed the baking and cooking section the most!
Thanks for following my blog. 🙂 I love London and the UK in general. All of my blog followers and readers make me happy but it just makes my day when someone from your part of the world stops by. 🙂
Hi, thanks for following my blog… Really appreciate it and glad you liked it… 🙂
Loved your blog too and love the way you put it across… 🙂

Keep up the good work.

Hi. I like the look of your cakes! You followed my blog after I wrote about the challenges of baking when you live in a small city in rural China and ingredients are limited. Today I’m going to try for a chocolate cake…. Happy baking!
So nice to meet you, Tassy. Thanks for visiting my blog because this way I was able to come across yours! Very lovely. Btw my daughter, Grace is majoring in research art history & English at Towson University. I have to share your blog with her. I’m sure she’ll enjoy it too. Looking forward to your posts 🙂

Thanks for following The2nd35Years! I took a turn around your blog too, and it seems we have similar overall interests, so I’ll be following yours too. 🙂 Honestly never thought anyone would be interested in all of my ditherings, so I feel honored to have a few followers so soon!
Hi Tassy, nice to meet you. What an excellent, stylish blog you have. I’ve been looking around, and you certainly added a little fuel to the slowly burning fire to get to Africa. I’ve been there before (about when I was your age I did a 4 month overland trip) but it was a long time ago and Don has never been.
I’m not surprised you have so many followers so soon. Your blog is well written, elegant and engaging. Kudos.
Thanks for following our blog. I hope you enjoy the stories of our journey, both inner and outer. Cheers, Alison
Thankyou so much for your kind words! I would certainly recommend it, I had a great time (including my Kilimanjaro experience!). Your most recent post has got me even more excited than I already was for my trip to Peru, Ecuador and Galapagos islands in August! I will be staying on Lake Titicaca, doing the full Inca trail etc!
Your blog excites me a lot- the travel bug is so infectious!
Thanks, Tassy
