Season two continues on Magnolia network and more!
The second part of season 2 of Zoë Bakes has some of my favorite episodes! This batch of episodes includes an exploration of my Nordic heritage, fall favorites like a trip to a pumpkin patch, and so much more. You can watch every Sunday at 2 p.m. ET/1 p.m. CT on Magnolia Network and discovery+.
It was such a joy to join the Radio Cherry Bombe podcast to talk about, well, a little bit of everything. We chatted about my love of therapy, book writing, growing up on communes, and—of course— my journey as a chef. You can listen to the episode wherever you get podcasts.

Zoë Bakes Cakes Nominated for IACP Award
I am completely over the moon to be nominated for an International Association of Culinary Professionals Baking Cookbook Award for Zoë Bakes Cakes. I love all the books I’ve created, but this one has more of my heart and soul than any before it. I am so honored my peers at IACP saw it worthy of standing with the other excellent books on the list.
The ZoëBakes Shop
Have you browsed my new shop? It’s a great place to find all my books, signed by me! It also features the line of aprons designed by me and my son, Henri.
Cherry Desserts
I love using cherries in cakes and desserts because they are tart AND sweet, making them a burst of balanced fruit flavor. They're tasty in toppings, filling or inside cakes. You'll find all kinds of cherry desserts in this list.
Savory Cheesecake with Roasted Tomato & Feta Sauce
I love to mix things up and make a savory recipe. Of course sweets will always be my first love, but savory baking is a fun way to explore different flavors and use pastry skills in new ways. This savory cheesecake with roasted tomato and feta sauce has all the rich textures of a classic cheesecake in a savory package that makes it perfect as an appetizer, snack or as part of a brunch.

Love the concept of your program, the way you explain everything, love you put your complete recipe so we can have time to follow you during the making of your labor of love. You inspire me to start cooking desserts again, to experiment with flavors and enjoying every moment when I am doing it. Thanks for visiting your friends and showing us the delicious things that they also makes. I’m waiting for you to show us a Christmas fruit cake or some of the goodies normally we give as a token of love to family and friends, a good chocolate truffles will be a nice gift, hope that is in your list for one or two of your programs. A big hug……Conchita
Love what you do Zoe. You inspire me to challenge myself with baking. Have been making your bread for some time now. I loved the show the other day with your Mom. Mine is gone now so that was so sweet. Any chance to get your Mom's chicken soup recipe?? That would be fantastic.
