Little Things began with a little plate and the desire to make people smile. I have always loved baking, primarily so I can see the delight on others faces as they taste the sugar and fat and salt in my treats. When I stumbled upon La Cuisine Paris Cooking school prior to my trip to Paris in 2017, I knew I was meant to learn how to make this finicky, but delectable treat.
