DARJA & OH, MY! BASQUE CHEESECAKE
You might think this post is about my cakes, my business, or why Basque cheesecake is the best dessert ever. But since it’s just me here—baking, planning, and dreaming—it’s really an introduction to me.
Hi, I’m Darja, your one-woman show, turning a love for baking into something sweet to share with the world!
About a year ago, I moved to the U.S. with a love for desserts and a husband who somehow managed to convince me that Boston winters are “cozy” (spoiler: they’re not). While settling in, I realized something was missing—the artisanal cakes I grew up loving in Europe. Although my background is in advertising, I couldn’t resist exploring my passion for baking (and let’s be honest, eating) desserts. What started as a hobby soon became an exciting adventure, as I tied on my apron, rolled up my sleeves, and began recreating those cherished flavors here in Boston.
So, if you’re ready to treat yourself to something special, I’d love for you to try one of my handcrafted cheesecakes. Every order helps support my little dream, and I can’t wait to share a slice of sweetness with you.
