Made to Taste

In Made to Taste, directed by Jae Linnae and starring Lana Smalls (Ray) alongside Lilly Bell, a baking show audition becomes the setting for something far more personal.

Ray sets up her kitchen to film the perfect audition tape, with a friend behind the camera helping capture every step of the recipe. But as the afternoon unfolds, the lens begins drifting away from the pie and toward Ray herself, her gestures, her smile, the quiet chemistry between them.

A playful idea turns the pie into something unexpectedly provocative, and the tension they’ve been circling suddenly rises to the surface. Watching the footage later, Ray realizes the camera recorded more than an audition. It captured a moment of desire neither of them had dared to voice.
