After a lot of thought, I’ve made the incredibly difficult decision to close the doors to Baked by Lizzie. ❤️
I truly don’t know what the future will look like for me and baking, but for the foreseeable future, I won’t be returning to business.
This season of life has looked very different than I imagined. Welcoming our newest baby has been such a beautiful blessing, but our family has also been navigating some really difficult transitions behind the scenes. Right now, there are things happening at home that need to take priority, and my children need me to give them my all.
I haven’t even been able to find the time to get my own sourdough starter going again. At this point, the most I’ve been able to manage is occasionally whipping up a batch of cookies or muffins for our church. And honestly, I’m so grateful that even that little bit of baking is something I can still share.
Baking for our church has become something really special for Lucas and me. While his baby brother naps, it gives us some much-needed one-on-one time together—just him and his mom. ❤️ Right now, that is where my time and energy need to be.
And for anyone who is still looking for some amazing sourdough bread, my great friend Devin over at Crooked River Bread Shed is your girl! 🥖❤️ I feel so lucky that I’ve been able to purchase some of her bread while I haven’t even had the chance to make my own lately. She makes some seriously delicious sourdough, and I’m so happy to be able to recommend her to all of you!

I am beyond thankful for every single person who has supported me throughout this journey. Every loaf of bread purchased, every package of cookies, every shared post, recommendation, encouraging message, and kind word has meant more to me than I could ever put into words.
I truly couldn’t have made it through these past three years without all of you.
Thank you for allowing me to do something I loved so much, for supporting my little business, and for cheering me on through all of the seasons that brought me here. While this may be goodbye to Baked by Lizzie for now, I’m leaving the door open to whatever the future may hold. ❤️
For now, I’m choosing my family, my babies, and this season that needs all of me.
Thank you. From the bottom of my heart. 🤍
