Our Story
BakingSubs was born from a simple yet relatable moment in the kitchen.
My partner Maddy, an avid baker, found herself in the all-too-familiar situation of being mid-recipe only to discover she was missing a key ingredient.
While there were substitution guides available online, none provided the depth of information needed to make her feel confident about her baking decisions.
Her passion for baking was contagious, and soon I found myself joining her in the kitchen, learning how to bake pastries and different breads.
Together, we've evolved in our baking journey, now focusing on creating healthier versions of our favorite desserts without compromising on the taste.
Our Vision
We want BakingSubs becoming the definitive resource for baking substitutions worldwide. Unlike traditional substitution guides that only scratch the surface with basic swaps, we're building a comprehensive platform that explains the "why" behind each substitution.
Our platform aims to provide:
- Detailed explanations of how substitutions affect texture, taste, and rise
- Clear hierarchy of best options for each ingredient
- Science-backed insights into the chemistry of baking
Our Mission
"Our mission is to make baking more accessible and less stressful by providing reliable, science-based substitution guidance for bakers of all skill levels."
