"Mubarakah Ibrahim didn’t expect a cancer scare to lead her to any sweet treats. But when a doctor found a growth on her uterus, she was hit with a thought that pierced her to her very core: What if I never get to eat bean pie again?
Ibrahim survived that scare. Now she is revisiting a culinary history she grew up with, and bringing it to New Haven.
Ibrahim is a well-known local fitness trainer and founder of the women’s health not-for-profit Fit Haven (as well as a radio host). She has now launched Mmm Pies and Gourmet Desserts, a New Haven bean pie bakery and distributor.
Watch out, New Haven. A new treat, with a backstory, has arrived."
