Owner & Founder,
ECBG Cake Studio

Hey, I’m Erin! I’m the owner and founder of ECBG Cake Studio (aka: Erin’s Custom Baked Goods, founded way back in 2011). I’m wildly in love with my friends and family, super into the Chicago restaurant and comedy scene, and obsessed with exploring the cake and pastry world.

Favorite meal? I’m obsessed with cheeseburgers

How’d you meet your husband? the improv program at Second City

Workout of choice? I love doing hot yoga (I ran the chicago marathon in ‘09, but haven’t run since)
