This is Edible Art. Bread so beautiful it looks like art!
Do you know about the beautiful loaves of bread that are going viral? If not, Let me tell you about it, lately on Instagram, with everyone being home due to COVID-19 baking bread has become a thing. One of the Instagram user @vineyardbaker says on her profile that she’s “putting the “art” in artisan bread.” Her beautiful images of bread topped with fresh vegetables and herbs inspired me. I wanted to try and figure out an easier way to do it with my daughter, and share it with the special needs community, so here you go.
Enjoy!!
The FUN you get to eat!
