About me


All my life, food has been my love, passion, and my escape. Met one of those annoying people who insist that ever since they were 8 years old, they wanted to be a chef? I am one of those; the ultimate food nerd. With an abnormally large cookbook (and cookie cutter) collection to go with it.  


The blog name 'Kate Tin' comes from a silly nickname I was given by friends and colleagues who thought it was terribly clever to play on my name, Katelyn. So, if you're okay with me throwing words like 'om nom nom' into my recipe posts and convincing you that it's okay to put Nutella, salted caramel, shortbread and chocolate all in one cake, then we'll get along just fine and I'll be quite okay with you calling me Kate!

  1. Hello Kate, I have just found your website and blog and gosh, you sound like me when you describe your love for food. I love food and enjoy cooking especially baking and trying out new recipes all the time. I am not afraid of my kitchen. Your food photos are just amazing. I look forward to more recipes for my sweet tooth. Thanks Vicki
