Romi Naparstek is passionate about helping others discover the joy of homemade pastries. With a desire to expand her baking skills and knowledge, Romi attended the Argentine Institute of Gastronomy in Buenos Aires in 2015 where she mastered techniques to become a professional baker. That same year, she opened La Romi Bakery. As the founder of La Romi Bakery, a baking school in Miami, she brings decades of experience as an educator to create cooking classes to help her students foster creativity, independence and confidence in the kitchen. Romi believes the kitchen is like a playground–a place to experiment, learn and have fun. She invites anyone to wants to experience the joys of baking to get messy in her kitchen.
