NEED TO KNOW
- Zoë Kravitz has a great friend and a great baker in Taylor Swift
- While promoting her upcoming film, Caught Stealing with Austin Butler, the actress spilled on a yummy, recent delivery from the pop star
- The Blink Twice star called the gesture “a really beautiful” thing
Zoë Kravitz says being friends with Taylor Swift comes with some tasty perks.
During a Wednesday, Aug. 20, appearance on BBC Radio 2’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show with her Caught Stealing costar Austin Butler, the 36-year-old actress confirmed what many stars have already said — that the pop star, 35, bakes great bread!
“She does make very good sourdough bread,” Kravitz said during the interview, adding that Swift’s kitchen skills are “insane.” The Big Little Lies actress said she last received the baked treat from the Grammy winner “like a week ago” after the “Shake It Off” singer sent her the homemade offering.
The Blink Twice star seemed to have Butler, 34, sold, as he interjected: “I wanna try that sourdough.”
Luckily enough for him, Kravitz assured him that Swift would be happy to have him taste-test her culinary creation.
Mills seemed impressed with the thought of the mega star sending out edible gifts to those in her inner circle, but Kravitz insisted that the sweet gesture has nothing to do with Swift’s fame.
“She’s a really good friend. She makes really good bread, and she shares it with her friends,” Kravitz said.
Butler called Swift’s sourdough gifts “generous,” while Mills said it was “incredible” to be on the “Cruel Summer” singer’s receiving list.
“Imagine anyone sending you bread,” Kravitz shot back, again seeming to separate the deed from the best-selling artist. “It’s really just a beautiful [thing].”
In a November 2022 interview with GQ, the Batman actress said she and Swift spent a significant amount of time together in London during the pandemic lockdown.

“She was my pod,” Kravitz told the outlet. “She was a very important part of being in London, just having a friend that I could see and that would make me home-cooked meals and dinner on my birthday.”
More recently, Swift made her debut guest appearance on boyfriend Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce.
During her visit, the “Look What You Made Me Do” singer spilled adorable details about her “granny” hobbies that “could be categorized as hobbies you could have had in the 1700s,” such as sewing purses and baby blankets for Jason and his wife Kylie, painting, cooking and her “very deep” love for baking sourdough bread.”
