Today, that street and that home has turned into an online presence that has amassed over 11,000 followers on Instagram and a website where she inspires readers with the likes of dipped ice cream bars, hot chocolate cheesecake and birthday cake inspired blondies.
And if even just one person makes one of her recipes—for Bianca, that’s what it’s all about.
“I’m so very grateful and thankful for every single person that supports me on IG [sic] and my blog. One of the things that brings me the greatest joy is seeing someone create one of my recipes. With so many other recipes they could’ve chosen from, it makes me feel good that my recipe is the one they decided on. It truly warms my heart and it’s what makes me keep going.”
But even with all that love baked into each and every recipe, Bianca will admit, it’s not always sunshine and roses.
“Being a Black creator, I feel like I’ve had to work twice as hard as non-Black creators for way less pay.
I’ve worked with brands that I later felt truly didn’t value me, but rather, what I could provide for them while offering very little compensation for an extensive list of deliverables.
After a few bad experiences, I only work with brands that are truly inclusive and see the value of working with me and my brand. I see you Sur La Table.”
