About Woody Wolston
An email to Rose's website in 2003, to ask some questions from The Cake Bible, became a journey's beginning of many email discussions and recipe testing from his Minneapolis home to his becoming Rose's first-time assistant for testing and writing Rose's Heavenly Cakes and, in 2019 her husband.
With the production of The Baking Bible, Woody moved east to be able to work and write side by side with Rose. After collaborating with Rose on five of her books, Woody insisted that it was time to revise The Cake Bible.
Along with baking and writing, Woody enjoys landscaping their wooded yard, playing bridge, and practicing t’ai chi. Woody graduated from Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota in 1977.
