Meet the baker
Hi, I'm Donna Friddell
What started as feeding a bubbly little jar on my kitchen counter has grown into Donna's Loaf — a full-on labor of love. Fun fact: that jar has a name. Brumhildough is my sourdough starter, and she's the heart of every loaf that leaves this kitchen. I bake the way my family always has — slowly, by hand, with ingredients I'd happily serve at my own table.
Every loaf is mixed, shaped, and scored by these two hands, then given a long, patient rise so the flavor and that beautiful open crumb have time to develop. For the sweets — cookies and other treats — I mill my own flour so they taste as fresh as the day they're baked. Whether it's a tangy country loaf, a savory cheddar-jalapeño, or a warm batch of cinnamon rolls, I can't wait to share it with your family.

Gotta be honest, this was such a delightful surprise. Perfect amount of richness, a great size, and every flavor in every bite. If you told me this was ordered from a high class bakery in New York , I would've believed it. Definitely going to be one of go-tos for family or friendly occasions or just a sinful desert all to myself. Definitely will have this again
