🌿 A Little About Me
Hi, I’m Ivy Raye — baker, storyteller, and creative mess-maker behind Bake Outside the Lines. I’ve always believed the kitchen is more than a place to follow rules — it’s a place to break them beautifully. I started this blog with a rolling pin in one hand and a wild idea in the other: that baking should be playful, personal, and full of surprises. No formal training, just a whole lot of heart, trial-and-error, and a sprinkle of rebellion.

✨ What Inspires Me
I find inspiration in the everyday — the color of a fresh plum, the scent of toasted cardamom, or the way a handwritten recipe card feels in your hands. I love reimagining classic desserts with bold flavors, global twists, and textures that surprise. My goal? To help you find joy in the imperfections and make space for experimentation — whether that’s folding matcha into your muffins or swapping cinnamon for chili.
Baking, to me, is a love language. And I’m here to help you speak it fluently — in your own accent.
