What can’t Taylor Swift do? She’s already proven that she can pack a stadium, break records and become the richest female musician in the world—all in one lifetime. If you didn't already know though, she also has a knack for baking—and word on the street is that it’s one of the ways she bonds with her friends’ little ones.

Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and colleague of Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, recently opened up about Swift’s sweet hobby and how she’s shared it with his oldest child, Sterling, 3, whom he shares with wife Brittany Mahomes. The couple also has a 22-month-old son, Bronze and are expecting their third child.

“She’s never really baked anything specifically for me, but she’s made little treats that have been around my house, like muffins and donuts and stuff like that,” Mahomes said during an interview on The Drive With Carrington Harrison on October 15. “Sterling’s a big baker as well, so they make some stuff together sometimes.”

So, does the mega pop star live up to the baking hype? Patrick didn’t hesitate to give her a glowing review.

“I’m not gonna say I don’t eat ‘em,” he said of the treats in his home. “It’s as good as everybody’s talked about. She’s as great as far as it comes to baking.”

Looks like Swift’s got the perfect hobby lined up for whenever she decides to retire. Lately, though, she’s been spotted enjoying time with Kelce. The "So High School" singer took a brief break from her Eras Tour, which resumed Friday, October 18, in Miami, while the NFL star enjoyed a bye week.

Most recently, the couple has been seen exploring NYC, including attending a Yankees game together. And her body language says a lot about their current relationship. (More on that here.)
