“I’ve always loved to cook,” Parton shares on the site. “Growing up in the South exposed me to that authentic Mom & Pop kind of cooking. Baking was no different. I had plenty of people to show me what’s what in the kitchen… my Mama, my grandmothers, and my aunts were all wonderful bakers.
They taught me everything I know, from biscuits and gravy to chocolate cake,” she continued. “Now I am proud to share some of those favorites with all of you.”
The Dolly baking collection, which includes mixes and frostings inspired by Dolly’s Famous Southern Recipes, includes Southern Style Banana Flavored Cake Mix, Southern Style Coconut Flavor Cake Mix, Creamy Buttercream Flavored Frosting, and Creamy Chocolate Buttercream Flavored Frosting. The collection retails for $40.
