Lore
“Opposites Attract” is a title with a built-in baking conversation: contrasting flavours and textures held together in a set of 12 rye rolls. Rye brings its own character—earthy, aromatic, and less elastic than a white dough—so the handshake belongs to a bake that made contrast feel deliberate rather than unresolved.
