Hear from past attendees

One of the best virtual conferences I have ever attended. The instructors are relatable and excited to share their content.
Nicole C.Teacher/Home Baker
I recently retired and now have the time to expand my baking passion. During the Bake Fest, I learned something new at each session to expand and improve my passion. Most of the presenters started out as home bakers—just like me. It is possible to learn at any age. I would recommend The Bake Fest for anyone at any age.
Kim L.Retired HR Professional
As someone who bakes for fun, I loved the opportunity to take classes to enhance my baking skills, to learn new skills, and to see what’s possible in the baking world. It was such a fun and informative experience and would 10/10 recommend!
Courtney B.Registered Nurse
No matter what your skill level, you will love the vast variety of the amazing sessions that the Bake Fest has to offer. As someone who does not plan to sell baked goods, I still got so much out of it. I’m a contact creator, and I was able to apply a lot of the teachings to what I do in a very unique way. Absolutely vibrant selection of interesting speakers from all areas of the bake-osphere.
Dawn L.Blogger
This was my first Bake Fest event but it will not be my last. The energy surrounding the live event was beyond palpable leading up to the weekend and continued throughout the two days as well. Thank you SO MUCH for offering this coming from someone who is considering trying to start up a bakery business of her own.
Merissa P.Research Scientist
As a home baker that only bakes for friends and family, The Bake Fest was a great fit for me. I’ve wanted to attend local classes for baking but haven’t gotten myself to do it because of time and money. But having the ability to attend virtually and watch live made this a special event. I'm looking forward to trying out all the new recipes and tips I’ve learned. It was so much fun!!
Christi M.Home Baker
Super happy with my experience. I took so much in. Connecting with bakers and knowing that I made the correct choice by joining the fest. It will bring me faster to my goals, more knowledge. I felt the genuine connections of bakers being more than happy to teach and vibe with us. Will be joining again next year! I’m so glad I shared it with my other baker friends. I have no doubt my business is elevating this year.
Kandy C.Attendee
Bake Fest is the most incredible weekend! It gives you the chance to learn from and interact with successful people in the baking industry on a personal level. The presenters are non-threatening, non-judgemental, and all so happy to be participating. The knowledge I gained and the fun of the weekend is immeasurable. It's a "must do" for bakers of any level!
Alyssa W.Home Baker
The Bake Fest exceeded my expectations. I could not have imagined so much cool content, demos, tools, tips, resources, prizes and fun packed into 2 days. Too tough to decide on a favorite part. The Bake Fest was a resounding success as a whole! Kudos to Stef for her vision and those who helped her in any way and those who played a key role to bring it together into a successful 2 day adventure! Whew! Can't wait until the next time! Thank you! Kudos!!
Dr. Renee G.Bakery Owner
I had an amazing time at The Bake Fest! The live demos were amazing and chock full of insider tips, tricks, trends and tools- PLUS taught by crazy talented folks in the baking world! I cannot say enough good things- I will be attending next year!
Ashley K.Business Owner
I thoroughly enjoyed my first Bake Fest ever! The whole event was fantastic from start to finish, well organized and extremely informative. I can't wait for the next one!
Marissa R.Pastry Chef
Love The Bake Fest, I attended all previous ones and I can recommend it with my whole heart. It's a great way to attend the classes about cake baking, food photography and blogging, cake decorating, bread baking, business classes... you can name it and all of it from your own kitchen or sofa. Plus you will get to know a lot of fellow bakers.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTORS

Your biggest questions, answered

The Bake Fest is designed to support ANY baker on their journey—so whether you’re a hobby baker or a home business baker, you’ll find The Bake Fest to be fun and inspiring.

Classes cover everything from cookies, cakes, pies, and decorating techniques to pricing and sales strategies. Each of these masterclasses are worth $100+ individually, but you get ALL of them for just $150 at The Bake Fest. See all our classes for the upcoming May 2024 Bake Fest here!

After you buy your ticket, you’ll receive a custom link to join the event on the event days. While you’ll have the best experience on a desktop or laptop, you can access all event features on your mobile phone as well with the Airmeet app.

 

We’ll send you a supply list before the event for all hands-on sessions. Make sure you look over your supply lists prior to the event so you know what you have to prepare ahead of time. When you attend a bake-along class, have your supplies ready if you want to participate in real time. It’s also fine to just watch, ask questions and chat with the other participants.

 

Otherwise, all you need is a device to watch on (desktop, laptop, tablet, or mobile phone) and something to take notes with!

No! You can join whichever classes you want to attend over the two-day event. Make your own viewing schedule to match your available time, and then catch any classes you miss later. You have access to recordings for a full year after the event!

Even if you can’t attend live sessions, you are more than welcome to buy a ticket. You’ll have access to recordings for a full year after the event!

 

Each of these masterclasses are worth $100+ individually, but you get ALL of them for just $150 at The Bake Fest. This opportunity only comes around twice a year, and classes vary at each Bake Fest.

 

So, if you like the classes we have lined up, get a ticket.

All classes and sponsor demos will be recorded so you can watch or revisit them for up to a year after the event. See what classes we have planned for our May event here!

Nope! Cameras are optional for all participants. That said, for any networking breakout sessions, we do recommend planning to be on-camera for the sake of connecting with your fellow participants.
The Bake Fest was founded by Stefani Pollack, blogger and social influencer with nearly one million Instagram followers on her @cupcakeproject account. Stef and her team work tirelessly to bring The Bake Fest to life for all of you! Learn more about us on our About page.

Absolutely! We are always looking for new speakers to teach at The Bake Fest. Please fill out an application to speak, and if your expertise aligns with our planned topic areas, we will reach out to you and explore bringing you onto our roster.
