  • Love this beautiful little dish that @arkworkshop dropped off with me yesterday. I will be collaborating with them and a few other special local suppliers to bring you some stunning recipes and competitions for September! Watch this space 😍 Shot in my new studio space that I share with the sweet girls from @sweet.lionheart 💞 (my office smells like cake every.single.day, it's the BEST!!)
  • Behind the scenes shot by @gabrielle.holmes. I'm definitely going to be doing a full-on instastory on my next food shoot (this Thursday) where I cook and style and photograph the recipes I've created. It's a lot of work but a WHOLE lot of fun too! Follow my stories this week for the full process. 😘
  • This yummy breakfast in bed was shot at my besties house. (She recently moved to a remote island and I miss her terribly! Can't wait to go visit 💕 but in the meantime what's apps and Skype will suffice) Hope you are having a cozy breakfast in bed today! 😘 Shot for @pesto_princess. Recipe on their website!
  • If you haven't yet been, you have to go try The Square at The Vineyard hotels winter special menu. @eatwithemma and I shot this for them recently, alongside their very talented chefs. This cheese board was as tasty as it was beautiful 😍 and a perfect way to end a cozy winter meal 🙌
  • Perfect winter's day for this creamy, dreamy caramelly @nomuchirps hot chocolate. #Supportlocal #hotchoc #winterbevvies #winterfun #hocho #chocolate #winterinCapeTown #cream #creamy #caramelo @food52 @bonappetitmag @birdonawiresa
  • One of my all time favourite homemade snacks. I think if you knew how easy it was to make your own hummus and crackers, you'd never buy store bought! This recipe is up on @prestwichcollection collection blog, go check it out! Ps: while you are there, you can shop for lovely things for your home too + #supportlocal!
  • Champagne jelly for #firstthursday 🌌 This was shot for the gorgeous new mom, Lynn, from @prestwichcollection. Quick and easy dessert that will impress your guest with minimal effort! Mix it up and serve with fresh berries or a scoop of sorbet. 🍒 Recipe on the Prestwich blog. Ps: also, do yourself a favour and follow her doggos on @lokiandblu!
  • Keeping cosy with some @superlattebar hot bevvies on this icy Wednesday. This was such a fun, quick shoot with Michelle from Super Latte! I just love working alongside small businesses with HUGE ambition, seeing their baby's grow and their passion for what they do inspires me °errrry°damn°day°! Available online via @yuppiechef or directly on the Super Latte website.
