Hello, you lovely people!
I’m so glad you’ve stumbled across my little blog. I hope you’ll enjoy looking around for a while!
My name is Tracy, mum to two towering teenagers, living in the south of Sweden (though I was born and bred in the north of England).
I started my blogging journey ten years ago with The Culinary Jumble. Over time, the kind of recipes I share has changed a lot. At one point, everything I ate was gluten-free. Before I became a pescatarian, many of my recipes included meat. About seven years ago, I discovered spelt flour, which has since become a huge part of my baking. I prefer spelt because it’s easier on my stomach, so all my bread, cookie, and cake recipes use it. That said, we can’t live on baked goods alone, so you’ll find plenty of non-spelt recipes here too.
My recipes are an eclectic mix of indulgent and healthy. Take what suits you and your lifestyle, and leave the rest. They’re all tried and tested, and I want to show that white spelt flour can be used just like plain (all-purpose) flour. I’ve even put the two to the test with some interesting results. Check out my tutorial spelt vs plain flour: which makes the best cupcake.
I love taking photos almost as much as I love baking (though not as much as eating). This blog is my way to unwind after a long day. I’m a teacher by day, baker by night.

I’d absolutely love to hear from you. Contact me by:

Using my images
If you’d like to use any of my images or link to one of my recipes, I’d be more than honoured. However, you do not have permission to copy and republish whole recipes.
For a round-up, there is no need to contact me. If you do use one of my images, please ensure you credit The Spelt Kitchen appropriately (by including a link back to the blog). Let me know where you’ve featured my recipe and I will share it across my social media.
Most of my new images appear on Shutterstock, so if you’re interested in any, please check out my portfolio.
Work with me
- Sponsored posts
I spent a couple of years working as a freelance writer, so if you think my blog would be a good fit for your product through a sponsored post, let me do the hard work and write something for you. Check out my review of The Spice Pioneer, which will give you an idea of the kind of thing I am able to produce.
I would consider accepting a guest post for The Spelt Kitchen written by someone else. However, I would need full control of the content and I would not add do-follow links on a post that I have received payment for.
- Guests posts
Additionally, I would love to write a guest post for your blog. I will create a recipe, take pictures and write a post. For one of my recent guest posts, I created this dreamy polenta and clementine cake.
Or maybe you’d like to send me something baking oriented to review (please, please!). I am open to all possibilities (as long as cooking/baking is involved), so please get in touch.
Love, Tracy x
