Chef Kimberly I. Houston has been teaching in the kitchen for over a decade. Her passion for baking What started as a commitment to making baking accessible and skill-based grew into something much larger—a full 200-page Teach Me How to Bake homeschool baking curriculum, published and used by families across the country.

When the time came to build the high school version, she made an observation that changed the direction entirely: teachers weren't reaching for printed textbooks. They were searching online — and finding scattered resources that weren't built to a standard.

That gap became the mandate.

Baking and Pastry Curriculum (BAPC) is the result—a structured, industry-aligned framework built specifically for the way educators actually work today. Not a textbook. Not a resource library. A complete curriculum infrastructure, available where educators are already looking.

Kimberly holds dual master's degrees in Adult Education & Instructional Design and Transformational Leadership and Coaching and is a Le Cordon Bleu-trained pastry chef. Her work sits at the rare intersection of culinary authority, curriculum design, entrepreneurship, and education strategy—and that intersection is exactly what this framework was built from.
