From Oven to Heart
Brightly Baked isn’t just about serving sweets — it’s about creating moments of happiness and connection in communities. Whether it’s sending cookies to a local shelter, providing cupcakes for a veterans’ event, or baking pies for senior living facilities, Ingrid’s heart is in every recipe.
Meet Ingrid
Ingrid founded Brightly Baked when she was just 15, with a desire to match her love and passion for baking to her commitment to brightening the lives of others.
Ingrid’s journey is one of dedication, kindness, and community-building. She knew that her love for baking could be used as a tool for spreading joy, not just for family and friends, but for children, the elderly, veterans, and anyone facing a hardship. Her dream is simple: to share the warmth of a homemade treat and make people smile, no matter their situation.
Baking brighter moments
Here are a few of the organizations and events Brightly Baked has been honored to support.
Best Buddies Friendship Ball
As secretary and treasurer of her school’s Best Buddies club, Ingrid helped host the Best Buddies Friendship Ball for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Brightly Baked provided homemade cookies to help make the celebration even sweeter.
Bay Area Legal Services
Brightly Baked donated treats to Bay Area Legal Services in Tampa, an organization helping people navigate difficult circumstances and access essential legal support.
It was an opportunity to thank the people doing meaningful work in the community and bring a little brightness to their day.
“The cookies were absolutely amazing, and you brightened so many people’s days. The work is heavy in our office at times; our clients are going through a lot of stress, and you hit the mark for sure.”
Hudson Manor Assisted Living
Brightly Baked delivered homemade chocolate chip cookies to residents of Hudson Manor Assisted Living in Tampa.
A familiar favorite became a simple way to share warmth, conversation, and joy with the community.
