Author Talk: Baking in the American South

Presented in partnership with the Cashiers Historical Society. What makes southern baking special? Join us and New York Times bestselling author Anne Byrn to discuss the history of baking in the American south and what makes it so special. In her new book, Baking in the American South, Byrn shares delicious recipes and the stories behind some of the South’s most iconic bakes.

'Unleash the warmth of the South in your kitchen! My new cookbook is a love letter to Southern baking, a legacy built by grandmothers, modern chefs, and Black women and men who pioneered these flavors. It’s more than recipes — it’s stories, traditions, and the taste of home baked with love. Get ready to savor the South through the baking that made it famous.' - Anne Byrn

We invite you to bring a beloved baking recipe to contribute to our conversation about baked goods in southern foodways.
