BettBakes Beginnings
Elizebett was born in the United States to immigrants from Terceira Island in the Azores. Soon after becoming a mom, she wanted to strengthen her family’s connection to their roots by reading bilingual books together, but she struggled to find many options written in European Portuguese. Elizebett decided to write Baking ABC - English / Portuguese for her then two-year-old, M, to combine learning Portuguese with their shared love of baking.
In addition to being a mom, Elizebett is an avid home baker, writer, instructor at Portland Community College, and Executive Director of Write Around Portland. She is also a super fan of the Great British Bake-off (GBBO) television show and has baked all signature challenges presented in the show’s 11 seasons.
