About Us

I’m Kara, let's get baking!

I’ve always believed baking is more than just mixing ingredients – it’s about creating joy, sharing smiles, and making memories. Born and raised in the San Fernando Valley, my journey started as a teenager in a little pastry shop in Studio City where I fell in love with custards and fresh fruit tarts.

Today, I bring my passion for baking and homegrown ingredients (yes, I grow everything from berries to walnuts!) to kitchens all over. Traveling Tarts lets me combine my favorite things – entertaining, baking, cooking, decorating, laughter and helping people enjoy time together.

So, let’s roll up our sleeves, have some fun, and make tarts and pies you’ll talk about long after the last bite!

Meet Denise

Denise is Kara’s calm to the chaos and the yin to her yang. Smart and steady, Denise plays a crucial role in making every Traveling Tarts event a success. As our professional photographer, she captures the magic of each baking party with her artistic eye. Her stunning photos and videos ensure that every moment—from laughter to delicious creations—is beautifully documented for our hosts. Denise is the behind-the-scenes magic that makes it all work. As Kara says, “I couldn’t do it without her!”

Only the Freshest

Kara treats items with great respect! Every fruit in every tart or pie is organic; some of our seasonal fruits come from Kara's yard! Hence, fresh and delicious. Organic fruit makes all the difference!
