This is a guest blog post by Suzanna Starr Williams. She is the owner and operator of Southern Starr Bakery in Nicholasville, Kentucky. You know that old saying “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade”? Well, in my case it’s taken me the better of 6 years to make my lemonade, but I’ve finally gotten those lemons juiced and the mixture is coming along. With time, I will venture to say it will even be outstanding! I was in a serious car accident which resulted in 9 months of physical therapy, spinal injections, and a lifetime of pain. It limited the jobs I could do, since my ...

Kentucky Blue Ribbon Pies and Cakes, Tracey’s Baking Story
Today we feature the story of a home baker from Ashland, Kentucky who had to give up her bakery, but knows that God is good through it all. "When my children were younger I visited a church to possibly attend. One day (The very day) I was making the decision to either return to that church or just not. I came home to a pie on my porch from a lady that attended that very church. Needless to say on that day it made my decision easy. I still attend this church 23 years later but I’m happy to report, that I am now the Associate Pastor in Music Ministry there. I own a bakery called Kentucky Blue Ribbon Pies and ...

The Kentucky House of Representatives and HB 263
This week I and other Kentucky Home Bakers went to Frankfort, KY to be there when the house voted on House Bill 263. First, we had a great group show up on Tuesday. I drove for 4 hours from Paducah to attend. Our home bakers gave cookies, cupcakes, and cake pops to be passed out by the house pages, and then we all patiently waited for the house chamber to begin. A few minutes after the proceedings began the house went to a recess. Our group was then informed that all bills on consent order would be postponed until Friday of this week. Sadly, I drove 4 hours home with no vote. Today, February 23, ...
A Tribute, And An Update
When I was growing up in Paducah, Kentucky, at every birthday we always had amazing cakes that my mom bought from a local baker. It was the 80's, and long before Food Network and shows like Ace of Cakes. Our little town had a local cake decorator named Fern Hamblin. Her little cake business was called Fern's Frosting and she was located in Reidland, KY. I remember so many of her cakes, and remember being so amazed by them at a young age. The one that stands out the most was a hamburger cake that she made for my aunt's birthday. Of course back then I never knew I'd grow up to be a cake decorator, but Fern and ...
