Hi there! I'm Tatiana Kamakura, the recipe developer, writer, and photographer behind Milk and Pop.
I'm head over heels for anything and everything food-related, but baking has a special place in my heart. I started to bake as a hobby, fell in love with it and created Milk and Pop to share my favorite bread recipe ideas.

A little background
Cooking has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I was no more than five years old when I first started experimenting with ingredients on a neon pink toy stove. I'd scavenge around my backyard for anything I could use, and voila! A mini non-edible masterpiece was born. Now, over thirty years later, I'm still at it, creating (now with real ingredients) mouth-watering bread and breakfast recipes to share with all of you.
Even though I've always been crazy about food, I never really had the chance to dive deep into cooking or learning more about the science behind it. That all changed in the middle of 2019, when I decided to quit my job and embark on a new adventure, moving to Vancouver with my hubby and our two black cats.
