Warm, buttery comfort baked from the heart.

The Story Behind the Scones

These brown sugar pecan scones hold a special place in my heart.

I first made them during the pandemic while living with my grandmother. After closing down my catering company because of the pandemic, I went to help care for her — and to avoid losing everything in the chaos of the nationwide shutdown — I found myself back in the kitchen, baking not just for nourishment, but for healing.

Baking became a ritual. Something cozy and familiar in an uncertain world. My little sister Jada helped me film the process, and that video is now my most-watched on YouTube — a sweet reminder of love, resilience, and sisterhood.

Why You'll Love These Scones
