Why I Created Best Served Hot

Hi, I’m Rachel — Designer, Statistician, and Trusted Partner for Food Bloggers.

At cre8d design, I work with food bloggers every day. And again and again, I hear the same thing: “I’m overwhelmed, but I need to keep up.”

I created Best Served Hot to make that easier.

It’s the weekly check-in I wished existed — one that respects your time, cuts through the noise, and helps you make good decisions about where to focus next.

Questions? I’d love to hear from you.
