Vivian is Baking – Final Table of Contents Revealed!

After months of testing, refining, and organizing, I’m so happy to finally share the full table of contents of my upcoming cookbook: Vivian is Cooking: Baking At Home.

This book is a true sweet journey, bringing together my Greek roots, European classics, and everyday baking. All in all, 50 recipes I truly love making again and again 💛

With so many recipes online today and even AI-generated ones, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure what actually works. With this book, I wanted to create a trusted, curated collection: recipes that are tested, simplified, and consistent, so you can bake with confidence. No noise, no uncertainty — just real recipes that deliver real results.

Now I’m entering the refinement phase, working on all the final details and the publishing process, which I’m doing entirely on my own.

I hope this will be the final version… although I might still make a few small changes along the way 😉
