Taylor Swift Baked a Tasty Treat for Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco, but It’s the Note That Has Fans Cackling originally appeared on Parade.
Taylor Swift isn’t just taking over the charts. She’s also busy conquering the kitchen. The global superstar recently gifted a homemade treat to close friends Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco to celebrate Selena’s 33rd birthday, and while the thoughtful gesture had fans swooning, it was the cheeky note accompanying the gift that truly stole the show.
In a sweet Instagram story shared by Blanco, he shows the homemade gift from Swift complete with a golden loaf of freshly baked bread and a candle from Le Labo. This is a classic Swift move for anyone familiar with her love of baked goods and handwritten notes. She also made homemade Pop-Tarts for the Kansas City Chiefs and has a widely popular Chai sugar cookie recipe.

She also left notes to go with the gifts. And rather than pen something poetic, Swift opted for pure humor: “It’s a loaf story,” the sweet note read, penned in her unmistakable (and adorable) handwriting.

Naturally, Swifties everywhere lost it.
The cheeky phrase is a clear play on her own song “Love Story,” and fans immediately flooded social media with reactions. “This woman is a comedian and I love her,” one person wrote on X, while another quipped, “Taylor Swift using bread puns in 2025 is exactly the serotonin boost I needed.”
This isn’t the first time Swift’s baking has made headlines. The mega-star’s baked goods are widely popular among her fellow A-listers that are lucky enough to get gifted a homemade treat. It’s a reminder that while she might be selling out stadiums across continents, she’s still the kind of person who bakes for her friends and throws in a hilariously punny note just to keep things interesting.
As a major Swiftie and a home baker, my head is spinning. Did she make her own sourdough starter? Does she use a Le Creuset Dutch oven to bake her bread? What’s her go-to recipe? I’m dreaming of one day trying it!
Whether you’re Team Selena, Team Benny or Team Taylor’s sourdough starter, one thing is clear: the Eras Tour star’s kitchen antics are just as entertaining as her music.
