Hi, I'm Ellie!
I am the recipe developer, food stylist, taste tester, and photographer behind Kitchen 335!
I am from a small town in East Texas. My family owned a bed and breakfast when I was growing up and I camped out in the kitchen any chance I got, stealing fingerfuls of my mom's famous cheesecake and snagging blueberry muffins off of the breakfast buffet. My grandma is a classic, incredible southern cook and always had something tasty going in the kitchen.
I started baking in high school and it became a hobby of mine, a way to relieve stress and to be creative. I kept this up through college and that's when I decided that I wanted to pursue baking as a career, but with my sites set on owning a bakery.
I attended pastry school in New York City at The International Culinary Center and that's where my love for pastries really took on a life of its own. The first time I made a perfect macaron I was hooked!
After pastry school, I went to work using my business degree and decided to start a blog as a creative outlet. Soon after I really dove into the photography side of things and found a new passion. My old love of baking and a newfound love of photography found a home together in Kitchen 335 and I found a career path that I didn't expect.
I met my husband, Hunter, in high school and we got married in 2018. He is my biggest cheerleader and I am 100% sure that Kitchen 335 would not exist without him. We have identical twin girls, Perry and Ivy. They are the light of our lives and keep us on our toes!

Where did the name come from?

- It's so hard to choose but my absolute favorites have to be my Roasted Strawberry Cheesecake Bars, Earl Grey Macarons, Fudgy Brownies, and Pumpkin Cake. All of these are always crowd-pleasers!
