Meet Our Founder, Claire Sterling

Hi, I’m Claire, the baker, recipe developer, and passionate founder of Bliss Batter.

My love for baking didn’t start in a fancy culinary school. It started in my grandmother’s sunlit kitchen in New England, where every season was marked by a new treat coming out of the oven. For me, the smell of melting butter and vanilla wasn’t just a scent; it was the comforting aroma of home.

For years, I worked in a fast-paced corporate events career, planning meticulous schedules and grand parties. While I loved the challenge, my true happy place was always in my own kitchen, with a stand mixer and a bag of flour. Baking was my therapy—a way to slow down, create something with my hands, and find peace in a hectic world.

I started sharing my bakes with friends and colleagues, and I kept hearing the same thing: “This is amazing! I could never make this.” I knew then that I had to change that perception.

I created Bliss Batter to demystify the art of baking. My mission is to share foolproof recipes that empower you to step into your kitchen with confidence and create delicious, beautiful treats you’ll be proud of.
