Baking with Julia is an American television cooking program produced by Julia Child and the name of the book which accompanied the series. Each episode featured one pastry chef or baker who demonstrates professional techniques that can be performed in a home kitchen. It was taped primarily in Child's Cambridge, Massachusetts house (Julia Child's kitchen was converted into a TV studio for the purpose) and was aired over four television seasons from 1997 to 1999; it is still occasionally aired in reruns on Create on PBS digital stations.{{cite web|author=CreateTV.com |url=http://www.createtv.com/CreateProgram.nsf/vProgramsByNola/BWJA |title=Baking with Julia |publisher=Create TV |date= |accessdate=2010-08-22| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100926120428/http://www.createtv.com/CreateProgram.nsf/vProgramsbyNOLA/BWJA| archivedate= 26 September 2010 | url-status=live}}{{cite web|url=http://www.weta.org/tv/programsatoz/program/281 |title=Baking with Julia |publisher=WETA |date= |accessdate=2010-08-22| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20100724232420/http://www.weta.org/tv/programsatoz/program/281| archivedate= 24 July 2010 | url-status=live}}
The series was created as a spinoff of the Cooking with Master Chefs series due to a significant response to the baking episodes and was a nation co-production of A La Carte Communications and Maryland Public Television.{{cite web |url=http://www.alacartetv.com/baking/baking.htm |title=Baking with Julia - Recipes |publisher=Alacartetv.com |date= |accessdate=2010-08-22 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100817142227/http://www.alacartetv.com/baking/baking.htm |archivedate=17 August 2010 |url-status=dead }}
