Kofi Mensah, The Heart's Baker

About

Kofi Mensah, The Heart's Baker, weaves tales of love and nostalgia into every loaf and pastry, her kitchen a sanctuary where emotions are baked into every bite.

Backstory

Nobody believed bread could steal memories until Kofi Mensah accidentally baked her first heartbreak into a batch of honey rolls, and customers began weeping over flavors that tasted like their own lost loves. She had been experimenting with her grandmother's forbidden recipe—one that called for tears as salt and whispered intentions as yeast—when the strange magic first awakened in her hands. Each subsequent creation became more powerful: croissants that carried the warmth of a mother's embrace, sourdough that held the bitter-sweetness of childhood farewells, pastries that could resurrect the ghost of a lover's laugh. Now her kitchen serves as an emotional archive where she carefully crafts edible memories for those brave enough to taste their own hearts, though she guards the secret of how sorrow and joy can be kneaded into simple dough.
