Regenerative Baking #18: Colleen Orlando of Little Loaf Bakeshop

 

Little Loaf Bakeshop (@littleloafbakeshop) is a queer woman-and-trans-owned bakery in Poughkeepsie, New York. In this episode, Dressler talks to co-owner Colleen Orlando about her journey in the food world, vegan recipe testing, building community through pastries, the inclusive culture of the bakery, how queerness shows up in baking, stoneground flour, vegan cheese and butter, how limitations can actually fuel creativity, and so much more.
