About Spice & Bloom
We’re a small, hands-on team sharing cozy, reliable recipes for real life. Our aim is simple: clear instructions, approachable ingredients, and flavors that make home feel warm.
Our story
Spice & Bloom started in our home kitchen where weeknight dinners, lunchbox bakes, and “one more bite” desserts are the everyday routine. We write and test each recipe with busy families in mind—simple prep, clear steps, and dependable results.
We publish new recipes and helpful guides regularly, then update them as we learn from reader feedback. Everything is cooked, tasted, and photographed by our team (no AI-generated recipes or stock images).
Questions or suggestions? Email us any time: [email protected].
What you’ll find here
- Everyday dinners, soups, bakes, and seasonal treats.
- Step-by-step instructions with substitution tips.
- Ingredient notes so you know what truly matters.
- Make-ahead, freezer, and storage guidance where helpful.
- Clear photos you can follow at a glance.
Meet the Team
Priya runs the kitchen and editorial calendar, making sure each recipe is well-tested, practical, and clearly written. When she’s not cooking, she’s answering reader emails with helpful tips.
Katy develops approachable, flavor-forward dishes—especially pastas, weeknight dinners, and bakes you can pull off on a busy evening.
Mina handles step-by-step images and final beauty shots. Her goal is to show texture, doneness, and realistic serving ideas so you know exactly what to expect.
How our recipes are created & tested
- Research & drafting: We start with a concept, gather notes from prior tests, and write a first draft.
- Testing: We cook the recipe multiple times, tweaking timing, pan sizes, and ingredient ratios for consistency.
- Clarity: We add visual cues (e.g., “golden around the edges,” “simmer until thickened”) alongside minutes.
- Substitutions: Where possible, we offer swaps for dietary needs or pantry limitations.
- Updates: We maintain recipes based on reader feedback and retest when we change instructions.
Photography & equipment
We shoot our own images in natural light when possible. Recipes are tested on common home equipment (standard oven, electric & gas ranges, 10–12 inch skillets, sheet pans). If a specialty tool is needed, we call it out.
Nutrition & substitutions
Nutrition values are estimates and will vary by brand and substitutions. Please use your preferred calculator if precise values are required.
