Welcome to my kitchen!
I’m thrilled to have you here! I’m Laila, a multitasking dynamo—a mother, wife, foodie, kitchen maestro, tea aficionado, marketing guru, and the creative force behind Petit Apron. My greatest joys revolve around gathering loved ones at a delicious table, sharing laughter, and indulging in decadent desserts at tea parties. When not in the kitchen, I love exploring new cuisines while traveling, taking refreshing swims in the ocean, and embracing culinary adventures.
Growing up in Morocco, I was mesmerized by my parents’ passion for cooking and love for hosting memorable gatherings. Hospitality was their true delight, igniting my fervor for culinary exploration and baking addiction.
Over a decade ago, I ventured to the U.S. for graduate school. I found my soulmate and chose Texas as my beloved second home. Welcoming the arrival of my precious baby girl, I stepped away from my career to dedicate more time to my family. During this period, I discovered the secret ingredient in every recipe—a sprinkle of love and boundless passion! Fueled by this passion, I created this online haven to share my cherished recipes and whimsical creations.
