Meet Scratch and Grain

Scratch & Grain Baking Co. was started by an unfortunate baking experience, which led to two moms on a mission to make homemade baking fun and easy. Taya and Leah met in Portland, Oregon as neighbors. We lived across the street from each and were casually nice as neighbors generally are.

Taya had been talking about starting a business after she had her first son Lincoln. So, after Leah spent 3 hours in the kitchen baking cardboard cookies with her daughters, she sent Taya a text message and said "I have this business idea, want to come over and talk about it?," Taya said "sure."

As we discussed the concept of the product as well as the vision for the company, we knew it was something that could really happen.

We wanted to make homemade baking fun, delicious, easy and as a little healthier. So we went to work creating a baking kit that had all the BEST ingredients measured out individually so you know what is in your food, and made it a fun and easy experience.

After 1,000s of variations they figured out the perfect recipes! Taya is the baker (Leah tried and failed, the dried fruit cookie that had Taya almost losing a tooth was the defining moment when Leah was booted from the kitchen) and Leah was the taster.
