About Instructor: Hannah Fink of Tooth Butter Cottage Bakery

 

 

Hannah Fink, a baker and local food enthusiast, started Tooth Butter Cottage Bakery so she could be at home with her son but also keep her hands in dough. She revels in naturally leavened bread and quality pastries. Her baking is focused on organic, whole grains, mostly stone-milled and local from Janie’s Mill in Ashkum, IL. Seasonal and locally sourced fruits and produce fuel her creativity and she shares a fiirm belief system that most items should include or go best with a toothy dose of good butter. She will be baking about Central Illinois in the form of special orders, subscriptions, and pop-up collaborations with fellow creators. She hopes to be a positive force in our local food systems and centralize her work on bringing good to the community.
