We're excited to wrap up our inaugural season, Sweet Treats, with Paola Velez, the Executive Pastry Chef at Maydan, Compass Rose, and La Bodega Bakery in Washington, DC. She is also the co-founder of Bakers Against Racism, which united professional and home bakers alike in what has become the world’s largest bake sale.
