AHOP’s mission:
To spread love and joy through food

After moving to Denver from the East Coast, Melissa was feeling nostalgic - where can a hungry human find a delicious Asian pastry that makes for the perfect snack? The hunt for fresh, handmade pastries in the Denver metro led Melissa to her own kitchen, and AHOP was born.

Melissa is passionate about sharing traditional Asian desserts with the community. She is inspired by her Chinese heritage and many fond memories of baking with family and friends.

Thank you for being a part of our journey!

With love,
AHOP

When Melissa isn’t in the kitchen, she’s exploring the great outdoors with her partner-in-crime, Mark, and their adopted pup, Arya.

With her passion for food and his ability to create, they produced this short film to illustrate a day-in-the-life.
