Baker-fundraiser Abi Balingit will discuss her new cookbook, Mayumu, a combination of remixed Filipino American dessert recipes and essays on the Filipino American experience.
Abi Balingit is the young, energetic Filipino American woman behind the blog, The Dusky Kitchen. She made waves during the pandemic by selling pasalubong (which means souvenir in Tagolog) treat boxes filled with incredibly imaginative Filipino-inspired desserts and donating the proceeds to help those impacted by COVID-19 and has been covered by Thrillist, Eater, Bon Appetit, Food52, TimeOut, VICE and more. She lives in Brooklyn, NY.
