Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Yesterday in Sweet Talk Chris D’Angeli let us know what she thinks of cupcakes, how she is hungry to compete again on the Food Network Challenge, and why Phoenicians could use a dose of Texas. Chris is the chef-owner of Slice, a custom cake studio where she designs and creates showpiece wedding cakes. On Sundays, Chris sells pies, cookies, and cakes at the Ahwatukee farmer’s market. She loves doing the farmer’s market, to connect with people and to keep her pastry muscles flexed.
