Using treasured recipes handed down from her Oma Doris through four generations, our Baker-in-Chief, Alina realized her calling to continue to spread love and positive change through baking. This intersection of purpose—raising money for causes that matter, loving the earth and all of its bounty, and taking inspiration from German tradition—is baked into the heart of everything we do at Zimt.
