Our Story

Hi, we're the Hansons

Sweet August was born from a deep love of baking and the belief that food made at home matters-- not because it's perfect, but because it's shared. In our kitchen, baking is how we slow down, learn together and build confidence one recipe at a time. It's where messy counters, sticky hands and familiar comfort foods create connection and memories that last far beyond the meal. 

​

As a mom, therapist, baker and business owner, I invite my boys into the kitchen intentionally-- especially my autistic son, who's love for baking has shaped the way I view food, learning and independence. Sweet August is rooted in the belief that anyone can cook, and that the kitchen can be a place of empowerment for people of all abilities. Here you'll find approachable recipes, thoughtful twists on comfort foods and encouragement to cook together -- imperfectly, joyfully and with intention.
