Hi, I’m Giselle – the heart and hands behind Char and Crust, also known as Chartutu! My journey into the world of food began in 2022, when I started crafting charcuterie boards and sharing dinner videos on TikTok. It was in those moments, arranging cheeses, meats, and homemade spreads, that I discovered the joy of creating something beautiful and delicious. But my passion didn’t stop there. Inspired by my mom, who had her own cooking show, I realized that the kitchen was my happy place – a space where creativity, tradition, and flavor could come together.

Over time, my love for food evolved into an obsession with baking. From the art of sourdough to whipping up homemade butter, cupcakes, and pastries, I fell in love with the process of transforming simple ingredients into something extraordinary. Char and Crust is where I share that love with you. Whether you’re here to find new recipes, join a class, or gather inspiration for your next bake, I’m here to help you build confidence and joy in the kitchen. Let’s knead, mix, and bake our way to something wonderful – one loaf, one pastry, and one delicious memory at a time.
