Your Questions, Answered

  • No—we don’t get educators baked. (Too bad.)


    Baked by the Bell is a teacher appreciation automation service. We create thoughtfully curated baked-good gift boxes designed to express appreciation throughout the rhythm of the school year. Our offerings are intentionally limited, seasonally timed, and made to feel personal—not mass-produced.

  • Our subscriptions are designed primarily for public and independent school educators and school employees who can be found at school during the academic calendar.

    This includes (but is not limited to):

    • Teachers

    • Administrators

    • School staff

    • Counselors

    • Learning specialists

    For our subscribers, we also offer a limited array of occasion boxes for other essential professionals, including:

    • Tutors

    • Camp counselors

    • Therapists

    • Pediatricians

    • Coaches

    • Caregivers and helpers of all kinds

    If someone supports children or families in meaningful ways, they’re likely a good fit.

  • We offer two delivery options:

    1. School or Office Delivery

    Boxes are hand-delivered directly to the front office. Because no one wants an Uber Eats driver eating the fries.

    We currently serve:
    Wellesley, Weston, Needham, Dover, Natick, Westwood, and Dedham.

    2. Gifter Home Delivery

    Prefer to take full credit? We can deliver the box to your home, so you can gift it personally.

    Delivery method is selected at checkout.

    You’ll receive an email when your recipient receives their gift.

  • To keep our batches small, consistent, and safe, we do not offer ingredient substitutions or customizations.

    Our kitchen uses common allergens, including wheat, dairy, eggs, and nuts. While we take care in preparation, we cannot guarantee allergen-free products.

    For recipients with dietary restrictions, many families choose to enjoy the box together or pass it along—because appreciation is meant to be shared.

  • Relax. This is a set-it-and-forget-it situation. We’ve got you.
    Our boxes are thoughtfully curated so you don’t shop the items you shop the box. This is designed to make gifting easy while preserving quality and consistency.

    You may add a personal touch by uploading your child’s drawings, photos, a quote, or a brief description of the recipient.

  • Yes! That’s how we roll.

    Our customers pre-order for the entire school year—all in one go! Set it and forget it.

    We follow the cadence of the school year and are available in several formats (school-year, trimester, and semester).

    Details and timing are outlined on each product page.

  • Who Tarted?™ is our parent-only collection—created for the adults who are subscribing and giving.


    Think one for them, one for you.

  • Yes, always. Thanks for asking!

    I’m a whiz in the kitchen (and a few other places), but this working mama and entrepreneur is ready to upgrade her tools—because great work gets even better with the right setup.

    If you’d like to help build something special, you can become a founding member of the elite circle I lovingly call my Baked Besties by donating an item from my wish list.
