"For witches who whisk, writers who wonder, and readers who believe."

Welcome to The Whisk and the Wand

Welcome to The Whisk and the Wand

Stir the pot. Cast the spell. Preheat the oven.

The Whisk and the Wand is a kitchen witch’s recipe journal — part food blog, part story cauldron, and wholly enchanted. Born from the pages of Tessa Bellamy's cozy mysteries and the heartfelt kitchens of Maddie James’ fictional worlds, this blog serves up a delicious mix of culinary musings for readers who believe in the power of food and fiction.

Here you'll find character-inspired recipes, seasonal treats, behind-the-scenes peeks, and kitchen witch musings that stir up all the flavors of home, heart, and happily-ever-after.

We plan to launch in January 2026.

Come in. The kettle’s on.
