Vice or Virtue Bakery

Mother-Daughter Baking Duo, serving the Texas Panhandle one cookie at a time! :)

Hi, I’m Teresa Bennett!

My love for baking started when I was a kid, baking with my mom had a special place in my heart. I realized the more experienced I gained, that God blessed me with talent that I wanted to share with the world. Over the last 32+ years, my favorite past time evolved into a side gig, developing my own recipes and having fun in the process! I passed this love onto my daughter and that’s how Vice and Virtue was born, it’s something we can do together while also making others happy. Over the years I realized how important being healthy is, especially as you get older, and that’s why I turned to eating low carb and keto friendly foods. In turn, I wanted to offer that in my baked goods as well- healthy treats that are really yummy too!

My specialties are cookies and bread, although my favorite thing to bake would have to be sugar cookies!

I am a full time teacher, and supported by my amazing husband of 32 years, and our 3 full grown children!

Hi, I’m Tori Cortez!

I started baking when I was a kid with MY mom, (who I’m sure you’ve guessed by now is Teresa) guess it’s starting to become a family tradition! Growing up, my mom made so many things and she let me help her and would share her wisdom. For the past 12 years I would bake just because I love it, and also for family and friends. Now I want to make my hobby my dream job! I left my job in April of 2024 to stay home with my son, and now that I have time, I have been able to focus most of my energy on developing new recipes and skills in the kitchen. My favorite part of starting this business would be the ability to make customers happy by creating something they’ll love.

My specialty is cake anything, count me in! My favorite thing to make would have to be cake pops!

I have been married for 2 years to my amazing husband and #1 supporter Luis, and we have our 10 month old son Miles!
