'Tiny Baker' In North Caldwell On Mission To Feed Hungry Kids

NORTH CALDWELL, NJ — A young North Caldwell resident known as “The Tiny Baker” is hosting virtual baking classes to fight childhood hunger, and cooking up smiles in her home community while doing so.

Earlier this month, the North Caldwell Police Department offered a “feel good story” for the holidays on social media.

The NCPD wrote:

“This is North Caldwell resident, Sienna, aka, ‘The Tiny Baker.’ Sienna has set out on a mission to create virtual baking classes on Facebook while collecting donations to help the No Kid Hungry Foundation. During these times 1 in 4 children could face hunger due to the corona virus pandemic. Sienna is using the power of baking to collect donations for the No Kid Hungry Foundation. The Tiny Baker is set to take the kitchen again for her next live stream in January.”

After hosting two virtual baking classes, The Tiny Baker has raised more than $3,000. Donations can be made online here.
