Turning Simple Foods Into A Healthy Lifestyle With Taneka Walker Of Kai’s Baking Studio
Taneka Walker is a mompreneur who has overcome all of the obstacles that life has tried to throw at her. She was raised by her grandmother. In her early adult years she also raised her siblings who were in need. The Air Force Veteran built a professional career and provided a loving atmosphere for her family.
Once she met her husband, Taneka Walker immediately dove into motherhood. As parents, Taneka and her husband found themselves creating loving memories and traditions with their own children. One particular memory included her husband and young daughter spending quality time cooking recipes in the kitchen. The family also discovered food allergies that challenged their daughter’s food intake.
Taneka immediately began researching healthy and safe food snacks for her daughter to enjoy. The family quickly transitioned to loving keto-friendly, low carb and gluten-free gourmet food items. Their daughter even inspired the start of the brand, Kai’s Baking Studio, in their hometown of Houston, Texas.
Kai’s Baking Studio is perfect preparation for the holiday season and the curation of many lifestyle resolutions for the New Year. Their love for gourmet snack options, advocacy and more are an inspiration to us all. Here’s what co-owner, Taneka Walker shared:
