With the holidays around the corner, I can already smell my grandmother’s pies baking in the kitchen!

Jessica Leigh Clark-Bojin doesn’t just make delicious desserts, she takes makes pies inspired by pop culture. And to think, two years ago she didn’t know how to bake.

“I was not a kitchen person by any stretch of the imagination,” she tells CBC Arts. “I’ve literally burned ichiban.”

She bakes tributes to her favorite TV shows, video games, comic strips. “I started out making the things that I love, like pixel art and Star Trek things and bands that I like from the ’80s,” she says. Check out some of our favorites below:
