Carolina Gelen is on a mission to share her abounding love of food. Her journey began in Transylvania, Romania, where upon winning a Jamie Oliver contest, she immigrated to the United States in 2021. In America, Carolina worked in the kitchens of James Beard Award winners, developed video and recipe content for New York Times Cooking, and was a recipe resident at Food52. Simultaneously, she built an online community of millions who love her cooking and baking recipes for being so shareable, approachable, and delicious, all before the age of twenty-five. She fell in love with the beautiful nature of Utah, where she currently resides, but believes that when someone makes one of her recipes a part of her resides with them.
