My “product“, (which I still make to this day) was a spice blend and variations of that blend. I pondered over the name of my business for quite some time before my creative husband came up with the name “Urb’n’Spice”, which is a play on the words since we had been toying with the words herbs and spice and urban spice.

Thank you for visiting my website! I created and developed this site based on the encouragement of my family, friends and colleagues. Over the years of honing my craft as a chef and pastry chef, my passion for the creative, technical and teaching components of the profession provided a great sense of achievement and satisfaction.

Of course, food is one of the things that inspires me in my life. Whether travelling to the local market or to another country or immersing myself in another culture through our Habitat for Humanity builds or cooking with children and for the people I love, the creativity feeds my soul.
