The Bake Fest was created by Stefani Pollack, the baker behind Cupcake Project (900K+ @cupcakeproject Instagram followers) and a longtime advocate for the baking community. Stef built The Bake Fest to give bakers something that didn’t exist: a virtual space that’s high-quality, interactive, and actually worth your time. Now in its fifth year, the event is trusted by top instructors, leading brands, and thousands of bakers.
