Nadine bakes

Thank you for visiting my blog!

I’m Nadine, a 22-year-old amateur baker from The Netherlands. When I’m not too busy writing essays - I do a Master’s degree in Medieval English literature - I like to draw and paint, listen to music, play harp and piano, and of course: bake! When I created this blog in 2011 to keep track of the things I baked, I never imagined that having a Tumblr food blog would become such a part of my life. I discover new foods, great baking ideas and inspirational people all the time. At the same time, I get to share my own photos recipes with the world. Although I usually try and eat as healthy as possible I do not compromise when baking patisserie. That’s why my blog displays an eclectic mix of healthier snacks and sugary treats. If you have any questions, tips, suggestions or comments concerning my blog, please feel free to contact me via the ask box ;)

I also follow a number of really lovely blogs and my favourite posts will appear at the bottom of the page - have a look at them too!
