About Trish

Hi, I’m Trish Peters, the baker, recipe developer, and photographer behind The Sprinkled Cakery. I’m also a mom of two boys.

For over 10 years, I’ve created cakes and desserts from scratch through my custom cake business. That experience shapes the recipes I share here, from getting the texture right to explaining the small details that can make a difference when you’re baking at home.

What You’ll Find Here

The Sprinkled Cakery is where I share naturally sweetened desserts, high-protein snacks, easy breakfasts, and mocktails made with everyday ingredients.

Most of my sweet recipes use sweeteners such as dates, maple syrup, or honey. You’ll also find a few treats made with traditional sugar or ingredients like Biscoff, which is honestly one of my favorite flavors. It’s all about balance.

Between school drop-offs and sports practices, I appreciate recipes that fit into a busy day. My goal is to give you clear instructions, helpful baking tips, and options for preparing things ahead.

How I Develop My Recipes

I develop, test, and photograph the recipes you see on this site in my own kitchen. Before publishing a recipe, I make it multiple times to check the flavor, texture, and instructions.

I use those test batches to work out details such as mixing methods, baking times, and signs that a recipe is ready. Then I share what I’ve learned so you know what to look for when making it yourself.

My family also helps with taste testing. My youngest son is picky and quick to tell me when something misses the mark. My oldest will try almost anything, while my husband and I fall somewhere in the middle. Their feedback helps me understand which recipes work for different tastes.

I also volunteer as a home recipe tester for America’s Test Kitchen, preparing recipes and sharing feedback on the instructions and results.
