About Tiffany
Hi, I’m Tiffany — Florida native, brunch enthusiast, and the heart behind Citrus Notes Co. I’ve always believed that food doesn’t have to be complicated to be wonderful. My kitchen philosophy is simple: use what’s in season, don’t overthink it, and cook from the heart. While I’m not a professionally trained chef, I’ve spent years developing, testing, and photographing recipes that bring together the flavors of Florida and the South, from fresh citrus brunches and baked favorites to cozy, coastal-inspired comfort meals.
Citrus Notes Co. started out by a desire to help new cooks feel confident in the kitchen. I know what it’s like to crave beautiful, flavorful food without the stress or fancy tools — and that’s exactly what you’ll find here. Each recipe is approachable, tested in a real kitchen, and designed to make cooking feel joyful.
When I’m not cooking, baking, or photographing recipes, you’ll probably find me exploring local farmer and art markets, attending church on Sundays, sipping iced coffee while reading a good book, or enjoying some time with my husband, friends and family.
