Blog Review: Jules Food

The last time I wrote a blog review it was of a more well know blog called Blue Ridge Baker. This time around I chose to feature a lesser-known personal blog I found through the amazing website Food Gawker. I get a lot of inspiration from recipes on that site and it gives smaller food blogs a chance to showcase their work.

This week I'd like to introduce you to Jules Food. The author is a photographer and states an interest in photographing food, which is very evident in the posts.



Purpose:
The purpose of Jules Food is for the author to share recipe recommendations that are not only tasty but appealing to the eye as well. The author also boasts in her "About Me" section her interest in trying "ugly" foods too.

Audience:
The main demographic of this blog seems to be people who frequently view other food blogs. Many times there seems to be a sense of community in recipe sharing sites as authors blog and reblog each others posts.

Message:
This blog seems to have a large focus on the virtual community and frequently features other people's recipes with links for the site where it was originally posted sending more views to these other blogs, which I really enjoyed because it made it easier to come across some great sites.



Organization:
The page is set up featuring the most recent posts in the larger left column and thumbnail links on the right of older posts. This is a good way to look at a lot of recipes at once to find something irresistible.

Style:
The page is simple and easy to navigate. Due to the nature of the blog being lesser known among food blogs, there are no advertisements, which is great because it's gives less distractions and more recipes. With its simple black background and minimal text I really enjoy the posts and appreciate the effort to keep the page all about food.



I highly recomend giving this blog a try if you are looking at recipes requiring easy to moderate skill. But for now I might try that apple cake.
