We're Loreto and Nicoletta - two Italians who fell in love with each other, with cooking, and with the simple joy of sharing a good meal. Our kitchen is where our stories live: the Sunday aromas from our childhood homes, the recipes passed down from our families, the dishes we've discovered together, and the cozy meals we make on quiet evenings.
Food has always been our language. It's how we celebrate, how we comfort, how we remember where we come from. Every recipe we share carries a piece of our lives - the traditions we grew up with, the flavors that shaped us, and the moments that still make us smile.
Here, you'll find rustic Italian classics, comforting home‑style dishes, and the occasional recipe from beyond Italy that simply feels right at our table. Everything is cooked the way we live: slowly, simply, and with heart.
We're so grateful you're here.
Pull up a chair, stay a while, and make yourself at home - there's always something warm on the stove.
Meet Nicoletta

Hi, I'm Nicoletta - born and raised in the beautiful city of Rome, and happily adopted by Canada thanks to my husband. Baking is my happy place; there's something about kneading dough that brings peace to my soul and connects me to home.
I love quiet moments with a good book, laughing until my cheeks hurt, traveling to new places, and watching the sun melt into the horizon. I stop to smell every flower, and nothing makes me feel more alive than a warm sea breeze and a bright, sunny day.
Meet Loreto

Hi, I'm Loreto - a Canadian born to Italian parents, brought back to my roots thanks to my beautiful wife, who inspires me every day to be creative. I've always loved how food sparks passion in every culture, and that same passion is what I bring into the kitchen and into every dish I make.
When I'm not cooking, you'll find me playing music, singing, or writing - all the things that let me express what's in my heart. Over the years, I've learned to live with gratitude, to slow down, and to truly enjoy the moment.
Together, we're the heart behind sugarlovespices. Thank you for being here with us - we're grateful to share this journey, one cozy dish at a time.
Much love and good food,
Nicoletta & Loreto
