Rise ~ Cakes, Cookies, Pies... is my home baking adventure!
Rise is a home bakery, started by Katie Crenshaw Thorson. Serving Wylie, and surrounding communities with delicious custom cakes, cookies and pies! Please browse my pictures to see the cakes that I have made for previous occasions. Call, email or text with questions and order now for your next event!
A little background: I started baking as a young girl in the kitchen with my mom. Chocolate chip cookies were my first culinary experiment, and I found every reason to bake them as often as possible. Helping my mom in the kitchen is one of my favorite pastimes. As an adult, I decided to make the baby shower cake for my own shower. It turned out beautifully! I continued to make cakes with my sister for friends and family to help stay home with my daughter after she was born. Now six years later, I am the mother of three beautiful girls (one, an amazing step-daughter), and have been encouraged to branch out more than just baking for friends and family. With the recent passing of the Texas Bakers Law, it makes it possible for me to bake out of my home AND raise my daughters. ;)
Rise has many meanings... The most evident being the event that takes place in the oven to the yummy cakes, cookies, and pies! They RISE! The second, probably not as evident, is what happened on that glorious third day where Jesus was RISEN from the grave. Because of Him, and his sacrifice on the cross for me and you, I am able to live in His grace and forgiveness... daily thankful for the blessings I have. The third meaning, is where I hope to use this home baking business to help RAISE awareness and support for child hunger. Part of the proceed from every purchase will go towards Compassion International, World Vision, and/or The North Texas Food Bank. Other ways are being brainstormed about as I type! Feel free to make a suggestion...
The next time you need a cake, cookies, or pie, please remember RISE! I am in the process of creating my price list and menu items. If you have any questions before those are posted, please feel to ask. Email, call, text or facebook will be sufficient ways of communicating with me. I look forward to working with you to create a memorable dessert for your occasion...
