  3. I baked zucchini bread with chocolate before, and it was delicious, but I love yours with dried berries even more. Excellent, Veronica.

  4. Zucchini bread.....this I have yet to try out; just worried that it wont turn out nice to eat. I think it is just more or less taste as goooood like the carrot cake which is one of my favourite cake too.

  5. Hi Veronica, I happened to see another blogger friend shared a zucchini bread recipe but hers using chocolate, yours is different both also look very nice to eat! I think Phong Hong baked zucchini bread before too? Or may be I was wrong. Anyway, I love zucchini but mainly used in cooking pasta or making omelette.
