Baking school,
without the
school.
Learn to bake from zero, in your own kitchen, one lesson a day. No classroom, no commute, no experience needed. Start whenever you're ready.
Who it's for
You've always wanted to bake. Now you'll know how.
Moms
Who want to make the birthday cake, the holiday cookies and the Friday challah themselves, and pass it on to their kids.
First kitchens
For young adults who want to host, gift and show up with something homemade, and actually understand what they're doing.
Recipe followers
Anyone who has followed a recipe exactly, watched it fail, and wants to finally know why.
The syllabus
Not a pile of recipes. A way of thinking.
Learn why cookies spread, why pastry flakes and why bread rises, and you stop following recipes and start making decisions. Every session has step by step visuals and a stamp for your Skills Passport.
Week one
Foundations and Cookies
The Cookie Experiment, one dough baked four ways. Brown Butter Blondies. Slice and Bake Sablés, plus how to keep fresh cookies ten minutes away.
Week two
Pastry and Cake
Pie dough and a fruit galette. An olive oil citrus loaf. A two layer celebration cake with chocolate ganache, frosted like a pro.
Week three
Bread and Beyond
Six strand challah. The finishing touches that make everything look bakery made. Then your Final Practical: your own signature bake, start to finish.

About
Dana Hasson
I moved to America at 13 not speaking English, and the kitchen was the first place that made sense to me. Everything I know, I learned by baking, failing and figuring out why. Baking is a set of rules, and once you understand them, you can make anything.
I built Homemade-ish from my own kitchen, and this is the class I wish I'd had when I started.
With love, Dana

FAQ
Questions
Do I need any baking experience?
None. Orientation starts with calibrating your oven and weighing a cup of flour. If you've ever made a box mix, you're ready.
How much time does it take?
Three sessions a week, one to two hours of hands on time each, on your own schedule. Challah day needs a few hours at home while the dough rises.
I keep kosher or bake dairy free. Will this work for me?
Yes. Every session includes a Pareve Note with a dairy free version that doesn't taste like a compromise.
What does it cost?
$245, one payment, for a course valued at $750. The List gets first access when enrollment opens. Everything is digital, so you can start from anywhere.
When does the course start?
Whenever you're ready. Your lessons unlock one a day from the day you enroll, and nothing expires, so you can pause, catch up or bake ahead.
Do I need fancy equipment?
No. A digital scale, a few pans and an oven thermometer. Orientation has the full list, and most of it is probably already in your kitchen.
What's the refund policy?
All sales are final. The course is fully digital and your first lessons open the moment you enroll, so we don't offer refunds.
