About
Hi, I’m Keegan, founder and pastry chef at The Lakehouse Bakery in Chelsea, Michigan. My passion for baking started in my Granny's kitchen and has grown into a bustling artisan bakery, where we create everything from scratch with love and the finest ingredients. From bread to cookies, croissants, and French macarons, I believe in making every bite special. When I’m not whipping up sweet treats, I’m sharing my love of baking with the community through classes and events. Welcome to my blog—let’s bake something amazing together!
