The zest of lemons, oranges, limes, and other citrus adds so much flavor to the food you are preparing, whether sweet or savory. We use it here in our blueberry loaves to add more layers of flavor!
The technique you use is critical, as zesting any further into the fruit beyond the yellow, orange, or lime green portion will bring you into the lighter-colored pith, which is very bitter and can ruin your cuisine.

I always add an extra amount of spices to my recipes (an extra half of what the recipe calls for). This always adds more richness to the flavor. π― π

Chocolate chip banana bread π€€ ππ«
The biggest culprit of dry bread is over-baking! π
When baking breads, always check for doneness five minutes BEFORE time indicated in a recipe. If a toothpick or other tool comes out clean when you insert it into the bread, then itβs done - no matter what the clock says! π π

We launched our business in August 2019! The launch was held in a private home with a guest roster of about 40 people.
We served an assortment of light appetizers, desserts, and a signature drink.
Enjoy mango or peach jam on your favorite carb -- I love a good croissant or crusty baguette. This photo invokes memories, because the tea cups are from a collection my Aunt LaDon had. When I used to visit her, we'd often bring out her fine china and tea cups to enjoy fine dining.
Tastes Like Homemade Love.
LOVESPREAD was born out of a sincere desire to show and spread love through food, and is founded on a firm belief that life is better with good friends and good food.
Our founder, Michele, is a foodie, baker, and recipe tester, who loves to entertain friends and family.
Michele has been this way since childhood, growing up in her hometown of Lanesboro, Minnesota with Grandma Jo.
As a very young child, Michele used to loved running down the street to her Grandma Jo's, to be her helper in the kitchen. Whether it was sinking her little arms into a massive batch of cinnamon roll dough, or watching intently in the canning room, she was fascinated by the process of preparing food, and was happiest when she was in the midst of it all.
