A Man, Some Batter and A Big Spoon Rise to the Occasion for Women’s History Month.
Home cook, JonJo Mayo Raysor @filwithanf on IG  joins me on this episode of FWF. As we celebrate Women's History Month and discuss some of the women who have inspired his cooking, we bake up one of his most requested cakes, Coquito Bundt Cake. 
This Coquito cake is inspired by one of JonJo’s favorite female cooks and caterer’s, Cat Feliciano, using her award-winning Coquito @nuyoricancoquito on IG. 
Sit back, relax and take notes, as we bake and chat it up about why he created this recipe, when he fell in love with baking and how this coquito cake can be a perfect addition to your Easter Holiday dinner celebration! Oh, and of course our usual FWF shenanigans!
