About Melanie

I’m the go to girl of recipe development and food photography behind Melanie Makes.  I think every dessert can be made better with chocolate ganache and believe menu planning is a must for a more enjoyable week.  I began blogging in 2006, but in 2013 I decided to focus on my passion of creating new dishes in the kitchen and purchased my own domain name.  I love to to make everyday eats a little more interesting, but also work hard to insure the end result is attainable by almost any home cook.

I’m also the ringleader of my four children that I affectionally refer to as my menagerie, a golden doodle named Truman and a black cat affectionately referred to as “Chi Chi” that is my second in command.  My family always proves to be the best taste testers and our favorites are those that end up on Melanie Makes.
