Hello my name is Kelly Henkel and I live in Browns  Mills, NJ.  I have been a chef for 14 years. I graduated from Culinary school with a Chefs Certificate.  I started my last semester as an extern at an Upscale Country Club in central NJ, and when I left I was head Pastry Chef.  I am also trained in every aspect of the kitchen, as I spent many years training in each department.  I spent the latter part of that time as a Chef de Tournade.  I  have also worked at a local convention center, and helped a friend start a small Ethnic Bakery.  I did all the cakes and desserts for them, while they did all the specialty breads. I then went on to teach Adult Education for a few years, and learned that I loved to teach!  I get such pleasure when a student comes in and tells me that they made something at home that they never would have tried to before.  People learned to love food as I do!

 I decided to leave the restaurant world and break out on my own, as I now have 2 children, and this allows me to adapt my schedule to theirs.  I love to cook and bake, but most of all I enjoy seeing the joy that those two things bring to people.
