Who is Becky and What is a Bakester?

I am Becky (duh!) and bakester is an old-timey word that refers to a female baker. When choosing a name for my business, something about the word bakester spoke to me. Maybe it was the alliteration… or that it is a fun and unique word… or that it is similar to Beckster, which I have been called at various times throughout my life. 

I followed my heart, my passion, and my stomach when I started this business and it's been going strong ever since. I am so appreciative of the support I've received from the Westfield community (and the surrounding areas).

I am a total foodie at heart and am passionate about baking, cooking, and, most importantly, eating delicious food. I've always loved visiting bakeries and homemade baked goods. That passion led me to enroll in culinary school years ago and it has fueled me in my cooking and baking adventures at home as a wife and mother. I truly love making food and sharing it with family, friends, and all of my amazing customers!

My family has lived in Westfield for a handful of years, migrating from the Chicago suburbs where we previously lived for over a decade. I grew up in Kokomo and was so happy to come back home to Indiana when we moved. In my spare time, I love to play nerdy board games, cook fancy meals, run (it's a love/hate relationship), drink sour beers, watch TV, and listen to music.

I started/became Becky the Bakester in the fall of 2020 when I opened as a home-based vendor. After a little over a year, I decided it was time to move to a commercial kitchen so I could have more flexibility in what and how I sell.

Thanks so much for following along and supporting my business! It means so much to me!
