Jenna Barnard - The Dessert QUEEN and Creator of Butternut Bakery

#92: In this episode of Just The Good Stuff we're joined by Jenna Barnard, the baker and photographer behind Butternut Bakery. You would probably recognize Jenna on Instagram or TikTok by one of her many drool worthy cookies, cakes or desserts!

Jenna started the Butternut Bakery blog as a way to share her passion for baking, the kind that involved flour, butter, and sugar. You know, the standard stuff. But a year in, she developed (and since healed) digestive issues and discovered a sensitivity to both gluten and dairy. That’s why she is so passionate about creating desserts for all diets. With Butternut Bakery, you will find a mix of traditional and modified recipes to satisfy every sweet tooth.
