For these 5 stars, there is nothing quite like spending hours in the kitchen whipping up cakes, cookies and other assorted sweet treats -they love to bake! Finding it a fun way to relax or forget their worries, these stars love to create new baked goods on a regular basis and even share their treats with friends and family when they’re done – some even have their own signature dishes that they make over and over again just for fun! While some admit they aren’t very skilled in the kitchen but enjoy the foodie experimentation, others have dreams of going pro and opening their own bakery some day in the future!
Blake Lively
Blake idolizes some famous chefs and wants to have her own bakery some day: “Martha Stewart’s my idol. I like Nigella Lawson too. And of course, Paula Deen – butter, butter, butter! The only time I really go on the internet is for recipes. I want to have a brunch place, a bakery, and a Southern restaurant – because my family’s from Georgia – and then I want a place that is all-over-the-world cuisine. I take a cooking class everywhere I travel. I find it’s the best way to get to know a culture.”
Taylor Swift
Taylor loves to relax by baking treats and she enjoys sharing her goodies with friends:”There’s something really calming about having everything measured out, and stirring, and preheating the oven. Fall is about to happen, and it’s about to be baking overdrive. There’s going to be pumpkin bread that I’ll be making a lot of and giving to people.”
Selena Gomez
Selena says she loves to bake even though she isn’t that good because it’s fun: “I like to bake – cookies and cakes and stuff. I’m not that good but that’s the whole fun of it; you get to mess around and experiment.”
Scarlett Johansson
Scarlett is a fan of creating healthy treats she doesn’t feel bad about eating: “I am big on baking, but I bake very healthily these days. I make a protein cookie where I substitute all the fatty ingredients with healthy ones, such as coconut oil and egg whites. I may add carib chips instead of chocolate chips. If I have one of those during the day I don’t feel so guilty!”
Emma Stone
Emma finds baking can relieve her from her anxieties and she does it regularly: “I think I felt really out of control of my surroundings. I was just baking all the time. There were stacks of things in the kitchen that nobody could possibly go through. It seemed like it made me feel, if I put these in, I’ll know what the outcome is… I was over-baking.”
