The three Niagara dailies (Niagara Falls Review, St. Catharines Standard and Welland Tribune) recently featured a profile on NC alumna Linda Batista (Baking and Pastry Arts program, 2023) and her bakery, Happy Snack. Located on Welland Avenue, Happy Snack offers stuffed breads, cookies, Bundt cakes, and cheesecakes, reflecting Batista’s experience in both Brazilian and Canadian restaurants.
