Meet Augusta Baresi

Recipe Developer & Food Writer · Founder of Blog Dolce Vita

Hi, I’m Augusta Baresi — the baker, recipe developer, and writer behind Blog Dolce Vita. I started this site to prove one simple thing: good desserts don’t have to be complicated. What began as friends constantly asking me to write down my recipes has grown into a library of hundreds of tested cakes, cookies, pies, no-bake treats, and lighter high-protein sweets.

Every recipe I publish is made and tested in my own kitchen first — flops, retests, and all. I only share the versions that actually work, with exact measurements in both grams and cups, real bake times and temperatures, and the honest notes I’d give a friend standing next to me at the counter. If a recipe carries my name, it’s because I’d happily serve it at my own table.
