Carine Goren (Hebrew: קרין גורן; born 1974)[1][2] is an Israeli pastry chef, bestselling cookbook author, and television personality.

She began her culinary career at age 26 as a recipe writer and editor at the Israeli food magazine Al Hashulchan (Around the Table), and in 2006 published her first dessert cookbook, Sweet Secrets.

[4] Deciding that pastry-making was her vocation, she began buying cookbooks and experimenting with dessert-making while working as a computer programmer for the Israeli food magazine Al Hashulchan (Around the Table).

[2] The success of the Hebrew-language cookbook led to a demand from overseas readers, and an English-language version of Sweet Secrets was made available by mail order in 2010.

[4] A Haaretz reviewer opined that the success of her books, which spend months on bestseller lists, is due to her appeal to the "typical Israeli baker".

[5] Recipes call for readily-available ingredients such as "tahina, toffee candies, halva and marshmallows", and feature baking equipment found in every housewares store.
