MEET THE BAKER

Ellen Lewis is the cookie baker behind How Sweet is Homemade, which was born out of her love for all things homemade and her desire to provide simple goodness for others to enjoy. She has always loved baking and is a self-taught cookie decorator. Ellen was first introduced to rolled sugar cookies in the seventh grade, and they have been her favorite sweet treat to bake ever since. While she has been making sugar cookies for years, it was just a few years ago that she began to decorate with royal icing. As Ellen honed her skills, she began her business and began teaching classes. Her days are spent rolling dough and making custom sweet goodness while her afternoons and evenings are spent being a mom to her three kids and wife to her husband, Brad.
