Last week, I ventured into Omnivore Books as I was exploring Noe Valley (which is such an adorable section of SF), and walked out with a copy of
Cherry Bombe Magazine.
Cherry Bombe is a magazine dedicated to all things woman and food--the pages are filled with profiles on amazing women who grow, cook, serve, and style food. While the magazine is about food (
imagine profiles on culinary greats like Dorie Greenspan and Ruth Reichl scattered with amazing recipes like Pecorino Romano cake with candied tomatoes), the magazine has a strong bent towards style (
see their amazing spread of custom candy created to look like bejeweled necklaces, bracelets, and rings).
I loved that the magazine had a strong food bent, but managed to work in topics like skincare, health, and handbags.
Cherry Bombe also has an impressive amount of patisserie-related articles.
After just a few pages in, I immediately wanted to devour the whole magazine. The writing is smart, witty, and incredibly authentic. The design feels very feminine, but also clean and simple. I felt as if the writers were my best friends, and we were chatting over a cup of coffee.
I cannot wait for the next issue.
Cherry Bombe is only a biannual magazine, so I will be waiting for the next Fall/Winter 2014 release. At $20 an issue, it certainly isn't cheap, but there are
NO advertisements whatsoever!
