Cookbook Addiction
Baking and the Meaning of Life: How to Find Joy in 100 Recipes by Helen Goh


Join us as we bake our way through Helen Goh’s debut solo cookbook, where baking becomes a pathway to joy, connection, and meaning. Drawing on her multicultural upbringing in Malaysia and Australia, her celebrated work with Ottolenghi, and her experience as a psychotherapist, Goh pairs 100 inventive desserts with thoughtful reflections on how baking enriches everyday life. Her recipes celebrate milestones, nurture tradition, and bring people together—reminding us that baking is not just about food, but about purpose, community, and joy. In this hands-on class, we’ll bring Goh’s philosophy to life as we bake recipes that feel meaningful, satisfying, and endlessly fun. Each guest will go home with a copy of **Baking and the Meaning of Life** to continue baking—and spreading joy—in their own kitchen.
