My Blue Tea Chef Profile features Lillie Giang who is cooking to the moon and back. Today the big show is on Lillie making elegant, exquisite butterfly blue pea snow skin mooncakes. LILLIE GIANG MY BLUE TEA CHEF PROFILE Lillie Giang Lillie was set to be a chef from the moment she was born. Her family were all dedicated foodies in Vietnam. Food was worshipped, adored and highly respected in her family. She grew up living, breathing and of course, eating dishes that were skillfully whipped up. It was Lillie's father and maternal grandmother who taught her precious lessons in eating, cooking and naturally, living well. When a child grows up learning the fine art of cooking from people who are near and dear to them, the child naturally develops a genuine love and talent for food and cooking Lillie Giang The Food Affectionist ¨My philosophy around food has never changed. Keep learning (I’m a forever student), never stop cooking and always give back with abundance.¨ Eating to the Moon and Back My Blue Tea is always on the lookout for chefs and food enthusiasts who share our values of eating natural, healthy food that is not only exciting to the palate but also enticing to the eyes. With each chef we meet and know, we learn so much more about the rich art of cooking. Each chef invites us to their own unique world of textures, flavours and most importantly, culinary stories that inspire. Special festivals always have special foods and the Mooncake Festival is one where we love drooling over gorgeous mooncakes that are rich with flavours, textures and colours. Lillie Giang is the chef who is bringing our Blue & Pandan snow skin mooncakes to life. We first saw her ¨giveaways¨ on her Facebook group by various brands and companies and we got curious enough to approach her with My Blue Tea's range of superfoods and natural products . Lillie was absolutely lovely and so quick at making decisions! We had a little chat and it was clear what she wanted. Lillie was very open to learning about and experimenting with new ingredients so we immediately sent her heaps of Superfood Powders, Blue Teas and Latte Powders for her to get her magical hands into and to share with her team of enthusiastic cooks and bakers. When it comes to food, a vital ingredient to enjoy it is simply to share it. No foodie or chef in the right frame of mind would ever hoard food for themselves. The joy of cooking comes from not just the process of making the food but also from having the opportunity to share with family, friends and even people we do not know (yet)! Cheering Melbourne during the COVID-19 Pandemic Lockdown It was sometime in October when Lillie contacted us and said that the Chinese Association of Victoria wanted to make a Mooncake Festival video of her making mooncakes. Due to the lockdown in Melbourne, a lot of festivals had been cancelled and the city was really missing the festive mood, and very much in need of cheering up. Lillie was more than happy to do it and she wanted to bring out the gorgeous shades of blue with the texture of snow skin for her mooncakes. Blue is an extremely pliable and exciting colour to work with in food as it offers such a rich palette of shades and tones. Depending on the thickness of the coconut milk you use or if you use water, the shades change and it is very much like being a scientist in a laboratory. You never know what you are going to get when you mix different liquids together with the butterfly blue pea powder. It is great fun as long as you approach it with curiosity and throw rigid expectations out of the window. Especially with so many cities around the world in lockdown, the last thing we want is to impose monotony on all aspects of life. With a simple mix of butterfly blue pea powder and a liquid, your kitchen can absolutely come to life with a variety of shades. Just imagine - no two mooncakes look alike! And they do not have to! No more standard colour and design. Life can be exciting. Deliciously so! As it was such short notice, we could not send our products by normal post, and what with lockdown restrictions, we knew the Australian post could not get things out as quickly as before. We took a chance and decided to Express Post My Blue Tea's products to Lillie. It was a rather nail-biting time as we really hoped the products could get to Lillie in time. Unfortunately, My Blue Tea's parcel did not arrive. One important lesson all cooks learn and which we apply to our daily lives is to quickly improvise. That literally is no use crying over spilt milk and when a recipe goes wonky or if we are missing an ingredient, we try our best to improvise and salvage the dish. So we quickly moved on to Plan B. We called Roger Yeo, the proprietor of Lion City Asian Grocery in Mt Waverley. We explained to him our situation and luckily for us, Mr. Yeo was such a lovely, generous soul he agreed to assist us. Lion City Asian Grocery stocks My Blue Tea's products and he actually personally delivered My Blue Tea products to Lillie. We were so grateful for his help. Finally Lillie could get our products to make her beautiful snow skin mooncakes. We feel proud that Lillie had chosen to use My Blue Tea's products for her mooncakes - an age old traditional recipe that requires skill and patience. Lillie was set to be a chef from the moment she was born. Her family were all dedicated foodies in Vietnam. Food was worshipped, adored and highly respected in her family. She grew up living, breathing and of course, eating dishes that were skillfully whipped up. It was Lillie's father and maternal grandmother who taught her precious lessons in eating, cooking and naturally, living well. When a child grows up learning the fine art of cooking from people who are near and dear to them, the child naturally develops a genuine love and talent for food and cooking. It is clear when you look at Lillie that she has been nourished from the inside out growing up - her sunny smile is the first thing that strikes you about her. There is something open, inviting and honest about her that welcomes you into her space. For Lillie, her love of life is intimately connected with her love of food. And we understand Lillie when she says that food connects her to people and takes her around the world and gives her purpose. Food has connected Lillie to us, and in turn that continues to connect all of us to foodies in her circle and in My Blue Tea's circle. And it is a joyous connection we all have, food unites and never divides. All true-blue chefs and foodies are eager to learn and share and tomorrow is always a great day to look forward to, for more food experiments and sharing good food with family and friends. Lillie Giang https://www.thefoodaffectionist.com.au/ We clicked with Lillie because we share the same philosophy of giving back with abundance. That is how life continues! Lillie has had a rich career as a chef, coach, educator and presenter. It is important for her that cooking is not an exclusive arena available to only a chosen few. In fact, what drives her is the goal to make cooking available to many, to make it affordable, sustainable and fun! Lillie lives and breathes her values of sharing wholesome, quality food with people and making connections wherever she goes. She is a guest presenter on The Cooks Pantry (Channel 10) and My Asian Banquet (Channel 7). She is also an advisor and in-store pop-up presenter for several well-known supermarkets and shopping centres. And if that is not enough to keep her busy and satisfy her craving to share amazing food, she also works actively with NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) students and their families to help make food accessible by teaching them how to prepare and cook food, all true to her values of making food accessible, fun and making a difference in people's lives. And Lillie does not stop there. At weekends she is eagerly sharing her love of food and culture with other enthusiastic foodies at some of Melbourne's largest indoor and outdoor food festivals and events. We take our hats and aprons off to Lillie for making her 24 hours stretch across the week to give back to the community all her knowledge, experiences and most importantly, love for cooking! We love how Lillie is experimenting with My Blue Tea´s products to create new flavours, textures and colours. We are so driven to do what we do because, quite simply, food is exciting!

My Blue Tea Chef Profile features Brazilian born Rafaela Baia. owner of Yummy Raw Cakes who makes nutrient-packed cakes with nuts and My Blue Tea's superfoods that do not need cooking. MY BLUE TEA CHEF PROFILE Rafaela Baia Rafaela is so proud to be living in Australia, to become a part of Australian culture while also keeping her Brazilian roots - by bringing in her passion and dedication to rock-solid healthy food any respectable grandmother or mother would make for her family out of love. You eat and you nourish your body. You're not just eating to satisfy your hunger.¨ RAFAELA BAIA RAFAELA'S ENERGY BALLS RECIPE Rafaela Baia Owner and Chef, Yummy Raw Far from a Raw Deal Most people associate cakes and bakes with sugars, ovens and probably a few notches too high on the calorie scale. Rafaela Baia is set to change that mentality with her line of raw, yummy cakes. Veronica Lind from our marketing agency, Vermilion Pinstripes sits with Rafaela to understand this raw cake business. We could not believe it when we heard about her raw cakes. Can an unbaked cake even be called a cake? When we saw her beautiful creations we really just had to try them and find out more! We spent a lovely afternoon getting to know Rafaela over a big pot of blue tea (and more than a few slices of her raw pandan cake). Discovering it Raw, an interview with Rafaela Baia Mindful eating is my passion and also a part of my lifestyle. It is what gave birth to Yummy Raw . I love and appreciate good food and I believe there is a way to create healthy, raw, dairy-free, gluten-free, plant-based "happy foods" with no refined sugar. That is how I got started experimenting with recipes and sourcing for ingredients to create my beautiful raw cakes! I use wholesome, healthy, nutrient-packed ingredients such as cashew, almonds, dates to give my cakes sweetness, texture and body. For food to be qualified as "raw", it cannot be cooked over 40 degrees so the nutrients and vitamins do not get destroyed in a typical cooking process. I was cooking in numerous restaurants and those years of observing and experimenting really consolidated my passion in raw foods. I was working in a vegan restaurant when I got obsessed with how incredible plant-based food can be. Once I discovered this, there really was no turning back to cooking with or eating processed foods and chemical-based unhealthy products. "…they are dairy-free, gluten-free, no refined sugar but they taste amazing. You won't believe that there's no sugar in there, that's why I make them with a lot of pleasure. I'm very proud to sell something that is going to be nourished … you can get lots of nutrients and minerals because they don't break down when you cook them like a normal cake." - Rafaela Baia From Brazil to Australia Brazilian families love food and many of our family memories surround cooking. Sunday family lunches were the norm and cooking up a storm was something we looked forward to. Making food together was something that brought us close together. And in those days, our grandparents and parents were big on eating healthy and well, with authentic ingredients straight from the earth. We may not have had a word like ´ecological´ or ´organic´ then, but the food we ate were certainly as real as they could get. We were a generation lucky to have grown up eating real, healthy food. My family even had a food catering business, so I literally grew up in a food environment where cooking and organizing anything related to food was the norm. I guess I kind of got my career laid out for me from the very start! I moved to Port Macquarie because my husband got a job here, and we really wanted to take life more slowly. I was living on the Gold Coast when I first came to Australia, then I was living in Sydney and Lake Cathie. I love living in the middle north coast. I have been living in Australia for over 12 years now and I simply love it here. "I am so proud to be living here, to become a part of Australian culture while also keeping my Brazilian roots by bringing in my passion and dedication to rock-solid healthy food any respectable grandmother or mother would make for her family out of love." - Rafaela Baia Making my beautiful raw cakes is the gift my Brazilian roots have given me. I am also very proud of myself for picking up a new language when I first got to Australia, and starting off a new career myself. Those are achievements my family and I really value. I think I have done pretty well - these were big changes in my life and a lot of moving, changing and settling in. Things sometimes got overwhelming and stressful, and that is when a quiet afternoon of cooking with my healthy, happy, raw ingredients help me to set my balance straight again. You eat and you nourish your body. You're not just eating to satisfy your hunger. Cooking raw food is like my hobby, passion, lifestyle, career, therapy all rolled into one! It has really made an amazing change in my life. Ingredients for the Future I set up Yummy Raw as a company to give me the space I need to experiment and build up my repertoire of raw dishes. I grew up being fed on good quality ingredients and that was a way my family showed love and consideration. Now in my business, I continue to uphold that tradition and I use only high quality ingredients. I am feeding customers who trust in what I am creating and I know however much heart you put into something, you get it back tenfold. So much of my heart is invested in this business, it is important to give the very best I have and to know I have not only delighted the tastebuds of my customers, but also that my creations are nurturing and beneficial to their bodies too. I have also been sourcing for produce locally as far as possible. I love the sense of community that I build wherever I go and if I make the extra effort to just look and ask, life brings me the connections I need to propel my business! It has really boosted my confidence finding local businesses within Port Macquarie. Talking to people, getting to know them, making new connections, and it has really helped me fire up my passion when I meet like-minded people I can collaborate and work with. Setting up a business can feel like a tough, lonely journey at times, so meeting people who share my passion helps to keep me going. I love the sense of togetherness with the people I have met and how supportive everyone has been. This is definitely not a competitive dog-eats-dog arena. Everyone has their own unique space to grow, helped by each other. One of my recent connections is with My Blue Tea . I adore their all natural plant-based powders. These are absolutely beautiful ingredients and it got my creativity buzzing in the kitchen. I found My Blue Tea on Instagram and it was love at first sight. I was mesmerised by the natural blue colour of the butterfly pea flower . I knew I had to get my hands on some of that powder and I already had ideas whizzing in my head about what I could do with it. "Thanks to My Blue Tea, I have created three really pretty new cakes - the Roselle Raw Cake, the Pandan Raw Cake and the Layered Blue Pandan Cheesecake. All raw, natural, unique, delicious, healthy, beautiful and absolutely guilt-free when savoured! Yummy Raw cakes are already power-packed with nutrients - when I add My Blue Tea´s superfood powders to them, that really amps up the cakes in their nutrient value, as well as making them look so incredibly pretty!" - Rafaela Baia Yummy Raw Roselle Cakes All natural colours and ingredients. The pink is from My Blue Tea Roselle Powder and the purple is from Butterfly Blue Pea Flowers Powder. Yummy Raw Blue and Chocolate Cake Mostly nut based "cream" mixed with My Blue Tea Butterfly Blue Pea Flowers powder for that natural blue, purple and pink colour tones. Yummy Raw Roselle and Kaffir Lime Cakes They're really yummy. Beautiful colours and flavours derived from My Blue Tea Roselle and Kaffir Lime Powder. Yummy Raw Cakes The "purple" on this Yummy Raw cake is made from My Blue Tea Butterfly Blue Pea Flower powder. Yummy Raw Roselle Birthday Cake Natural reds and pinks using My Blue Tea's Roselle Hibiscus Sabdariffa powder I am excited to see what new connections I can continue to make in Port Macquarie. I know that is how my creativity grows! Labour of Love Yummy Raw allows me to pursue my passion and create a future for my family - a future built on very healthy foundations! I want to continue to work with plant-based desserts. I love seeing the final product, and here is a little secret confession on my part - my favourite part of the whole cooking process is putting in the garnishes and finishing touches. It is so fun and kind of like a treat for myself to say, well done, you have made another amazing delicious raw cake! Sometimes my experiments do not work out and things do not go as plan, but that is what I also love about cooking. It is very forgiving. I experiment, try different ingredients and methods, and if it works, great, if it does not, it is a lesson learnt. I can dust it off, wash things up, rest with a cup of coffee and try again the next day! I am excited about where my future is going with Yummy Raw . I know I have strong roots to back me up in my culinary career. I have a lot of saudades* for the food and family feasting atmosphere I enjoyed as a child. And in some ways I want to extend this and share this with my customers. Yummy Raw is my labour of love and I am a very lucky person to have grown up with beautiful food and to now be the one sharing this with so many people. * Saudades- (Portuguese) feeling of nostalgia or melancholic longing for the past or for something or someone one loves.

Raw Chef Yin MY BLUE TEA CHEF PROFILE Raw Chef Yin From Law to Raw At My Blue Tea , we have had the pleasure of speaking to many chefs who actually did not start off in the culinary industry but chose to pursue it mid-career. Making a big life change is never easy and Raw Chef Yin could have been working in law but chose instead to train at the world's leading raw and plant-based culinary academy so she could dedicate her time to sharing her joy for healthy, delicious raw vegan cuisine. In Full Bloom One cannot help but get enthusiastic about raw vegan food when you see what Raw Chef Yin has achieved during her culinary career.

She is a Certified Raw Food Teacher and has been invited to conduct sessions all over the world in London, Brighton, Boston, France, Australia, Bali, Taipei, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya & Penang. In order to reach out to people, Raw Chef Yin also presented at TEDxUSMNibongTebal 2018 where she spoke on “The Transformative Power of Raw Vegan Food” . She is not shy to reach out to people and she is so driven in her quest she was selected to represent Malaysia at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Beyond Food Bootcamp where she got together with other like-minded professionals to share their knowledge in working towards solving the world’s food challenges. Her passion for raw vegan food runs so strong she is happy to share on different channels and has even appeared on national radio shows such as BFM: The Business Radio Station, Matic.FM, eFM and Aforadio. There is literally no excuse for people not to learn about the benefits of raw vegan food! Festivals are another place where you cannot miss Raw Chef Yin. She has presented at various vegan festivals worldwide such as: - Perth Vegan Expo - Brighton Vegan Summer Festival - Bali Vegan Festival - Singapore Vegan Festival - World Vegan Day - Malaysia Vegan Festival You would think this is where we end and start talking about something else. Far from it! Raw Chef Yin has a way of squeezing 48 hours out of the usual 24, for she has found time to even publish her own books! She has conquered the spoken word and of course she is not going to miss out on the written word either! Raw Chef Yin has been featured in media publications such as The Edge (Options), The Sun, The Star, Female Magazine, Oriental News Daily, Jelita, The Malaysian Reserve, Focus Malaysia, The Malaysian Women’s Weekly, Malay Mail, Fireflyz, Senyum Magazine (in Japanese), Calibre, Clozette, Brain Food Magazin (in German). She also has a bestselling book in English and Chinese enticingly called Guilt-free Desserts . We definitely want to get a copy of that one. If you are more digitally-inclined, check out her published eBooks such as: 1. Raw Vegan Delights: Asian Edition 2. Fun with Asian Raw Food 3. Fun with Ferments (Number 3 in the world in category E19 Fermentation for the 25th Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2020) 4. Fun with Vegan Cheese 5. Fun with Asian Raw Food 2 The Origins How did someone go from having a law degree from the University of London to a raw food chef? Raw Chef Yin battled with skin problems since she was a child and her parents tried every solution that was available, from harsh steroid creams to gooey bitter Chinese herbal medicine that she forced herself to drink while pinching her nose. This neverending chase for the elusive cure that cost her parents a lot of money lasted 30 long years. It meant growing up constantly having to be careful about her skin and having to deal with restrictions in activities, frustrations, embarrassments and pain. Raw Chef Yin finally found a remedy. And it is literally as simple as it sounds. Plant-based, whole foods that have not been heated up at high temperatures. This meant a 360 degree change in her life. She never stopped learning about what is healthy eating and healthy living, and in the early 1990s she developed a growing awareness of how meat was not good for the human body. She started to reduce her intake of meat and instead selected only vegetables and some fish and seafood. She kept fish in her diet because it was the general misconception at that time that humans needed to get protein from fish. 2014 was a defining year for Raw Chef Yin. It was then when she had her first fully raw vegan meal. She came upon a blog called This Rawsome Vegan Life which showed a recipe for a fully raw meal - a raw lasagne with cashew cheese and broccoli sundried tomato pesto. She spent two hours poring over the preparation and it was well worth the time and effort. It was surprisingly delicious and most of all, it gave her a feeling of lightness and energy. This was enough to convince her that raw food was the way to go. In 2016, she became a full vegan. At that time, being vegan was still a new concept so she started researching and found a small but strong vegan community in Malaysia. She started to take part in vegan activities and she clearly has not looked back since. It set her off on a quest to learn as much as she could about raw food. She sought out cookbooks, read blogs, watched videos and all that eventually led her to raw vegan celebrity chef Matthew Kenney and she was immediately hooked. She signed up for her first course Everyday Raw Express . This was a milestone for her as this was where she learnt to make everything ranging from beverages, appetizers, soups, main meals and even desserts that were all raw, clean, beautiful and delicious. Interestingly enough, Raw Chef Yin was actually already on a vegan diet when she was a child because she grew up snacking on raw cucumbers, carrots and celery sticks. It was thanks to her parents who started this habit of eating healthy raw vegetables, making sure she always had a small portion of raw food in her meals. Unfortunately, children are not always the kindest creatures sometimes, and her way of snacking led to a lot of teasing and name-calling from her schoolmates. For the other children, Raw Chef Yin´s snacks were more like ¨rabbit food¨ or a ¨goat´s diet¨. Now Raw Chef Yin is the one who has the last laugh as she is not only enjoying an incredibly healthy body and life thanks to her raw vegan diet, she has also become incredibly successful in her career promoting the benefits of this way of eating. Just Keep Growing Raw Chef Yin then started an Instagram account to document her raw vegan journey. Friends were always curious and delighted to be invited over as very willing guinea pigs to try out her recipes and raw food experiments. Once, she even made a 4-course fully raw Christmas dinner for her family. There was Zucchini Tartare, Mushroom Nut Burgers, Durian Pie and Fig Water Kefir. Hard to imagine all that being raw and vegan? Raw Chef Yin has proven this can be done, and enjoyed! We would very much like to be invited as her guests for her next Christmas dinner. Raw Chef Yin is one of those people who would go all the way for what she believes in. Raw vegan food for her was not just a casual Sunday hobby she picked up. She trained at the world's first classically structured raw and plant-based culinary school - the Matthew Kenny Culinary Academy at Evason Hua Hin, Thailand where she got a solid foundation in raw food preparation and it gave her the confidence to go even further in her career. Three Matthew Kenny courses and a year and a half of making raw meals later, she finally felt ready to dive completely in. She started conducting simple raw food workshops and she had so much fun sharing her knowledge that it drove her to do even more for raw vegan food. Coming from Malaysia which is rich in fresh vegetables and fruits all year round, she was in the perfect environment to build awareness and appreciation for local produce. Since then, she has created beautiful unique raw vegan dishes such as Ciku Pudding with Dragon Fruit Coulis, a Malaysian Mango Salad Dressing and lacto-fermented Belimbing Buluh. This not only drove interest in raw food but also encouraged locals to recognise the value of their local products instead of relying on imported ones. This was her first step towards Crafting the Future of Food in Malaysia. Nowadays, her workshops are all sold-out across Asia, including Hong Kong, Thailand, Taiwan, Bali and Singapore. Raw Chef Yin is now the host of her very own (non)cooking show called Velicious with Raw Chef Yin , possibly the very first raw vegan (non)cooking show in Malaysia. Yet another feather to add in her chef's hat! Raw Chef Yin is also a Certified Raw Food Teacher, having successfully completed a Raw Teacher Training Intensive taught by Karen Knowler in 2016 and 2017. Raw Chef Yin wanted to take her skills and knowledge to a world-class, professional standard. Since then, she has even worked with raw vegan French Chef Tina Barrat to introduce raw fine dining experiences to people in Hong Kong and Malaysia. What allows Raw Chef Yin to keep growing in her passion for raw food is her dedication to developing recipes on dishes that she loves. She is excited about food and its tastes, textures, flavours and it is simply a matter of veganising these beautiful dishes and creating a healthier option. "Never stop learning" is probably Raw Chef Yin's motto as she never stops researching and learning - attending courses, reading, watching videos, attending summits and definitely a lot of contact with other eager vegan chefs to share their passion and experience. Like Raw Chef Yin, My Blue Tea adores food and is always on the lookout for fellow foodies and chefs who are eager to try new natural, healthy ingredients. Check out the beautiful dishes Raw Chef Yin created with our superfood powders ! Imagine using already healthy superfood powders to create raw vegan dishes - that is like boosting the power each dish! Why not try making a Cauliflower Blue Rice Nasi Kerabu and for a special treat, how about a Pandan Matcha Frappuccino? Planting Seeds for the Future Raw Chef Yin has come a long way since being an awkward child scratching away at her skin and feeling hurt by the tauntings of schoolmates at her super healthy raw-as-can-be carrot sticks. She has seen a growing awareness and demand for raw vegan food in Malaysia, and events such as World Vegan Day is helping people learn more about this way of life. There have been more fully vegan places coming up which is helping to change the mindset that being a raw vegan is difficult and troublesome. There is even a Malaysian Vegan Society now with regular vegan meetups. Clearly, a lot has changed since the time when Raw Chef Yin first started out on her raw food journey. She continues to believe in the value of education and sharing knowledge. She loves posting photos of appetising vegan food on her social media channels to show people that raw and vegan does not mean boring, dry or tasteless. She can even make Sambal Belacan that is raw vegan! That is quite a feat and very exciting! Definitely one dish that will get people to sit up and notice! People tend to reject anything that is unknown or inaccessible and what Raw Chef Yin is doing is bringing raw vegan food right to the very heart of the people - it is not about telling them to eat new dishes that are strange, and simply preaching about how healthy something is is not always the most effective way to reach out to people. It is about showing there is another way to live, there are choices and people can still enjoy what they love and are used to. Delicious food is always a beautiful way to quell doubts and fears, not to mention get people excited and connected! Raw Chef Yin is dedicating her life to planting these beautiful seeds for a better and healthier future, not just for herself and those who are already fans of raw food, but for the benefit of many others who are still unaware or fearful of it, and for the planet as well. She hopes that one day, having vegan options would be as common place as having any style of cuisine and people would be well informed about raw vegan food and have options to freely enjoy raw vegan food anywhere in the world. She is taking heart in the fact that raw vegan food is already gaining a strong foothold in the USA and in the UK, so it would be just a matter of time before Malaysia embraces raw vegan food. Ultimately, choosing a whole-food, plant-based lifestyle would mean a healthier nation of people and a more sustainable world for everyone. We are sure the little girl that Raw Chef Yin was would be very proud of where her adult self is now, and of how much she has accomplished.

If she could go back in time, she would treat her little girl self to a delicious meal of kiddie lasagne that is raw and yummy, and perhaps invite the other teasing children to join in and let their stomachs help them realise, instead of laughing at a little girl who enjoyed snacking on raw vegetables, they could share her snacks and change their lifestyle for a healthier, more joyous one.

Whenever chefs share with us their history and how they started, we are always amazed, and so grateful that they put in the hard work and courage to make a career change to become chefs. Jeffery Liew of Cheffery's Kitchen is one such chef. MY BLUE TEA CHEF PROFILE Jeffery Liew Jeffery has a Masters of Science degree under his belt, or rather, under his apron, but we cannot imagine Jeffery working in an office with computers, diagrams and formulas. He started working as an engineer when he was training himself in baking. He worked his way up from waiter to apprentice to pastry chef and sous chef. And he was finally able to devote himself full-time to Cheffery's Kitchen in 2018. Chef Jeffery Liew Jeffery Liew Getting to the Heart of Cooking Whenever chefs share with us their history and how they started, we are always amazed, and so grateful that they put in the hard work and courage to make a career change to become chefs. Jeffery Liew is one such chef. Connecting with the Past We are so glad Jeffery Liew did not stay in the Sciences! Jeffery's culinary touch is one that reminds you of the good old days and of home. He is proud of his Malaysian and Peranakan roots and keeping the tradition and culture alive by introducing it to Australia is what makes Cheffery's Kitchen stand out. Whenever Jeffery cooks, he has a pair of eyes looking forward with his creativity and innovation in fusing the best of different culinary worlds, and he also has a pair of eyes that look to the past, embracing his heritage and honouring the food and dishes his parents grew up with. Each time he cooks a traditional dish, it is like a little time travel for him to experience what his parents ate as children. It is a beautiful, intimate way to be connected with one's family and culture. Giving Back from the Heart When Jeffery first set up Cheffery's Kitchen , he was very clear about his mission - to give back to the community. My Blue Tea has always been drawn to chefs who share our values of giving back to the community. Read more here about how we give back to the community with our sustainable farming practices. We admire Jeffery's simple humility - he does not put his culinary skills on a pedestal as the main highlight of his career. He is highly dedicated to doing his part for the less fortunate and sharing with people who are experiencing difficult times. Having lost his father to cancer, Jeffery understands the difficulties people go through when there is an illness in the family. He takes part in the Biggest Morning Tea every year - it is his hope that one day, the world can be cancer-free and nobody would have to suffer the way his family did when his father battled the disease. Jeffery's signature macarons may look petite and delicate but he has a huge, rock solid heart of gold when it comes to paying it forward. Earlier this year, he did fundraising for the bushfire victims in Australia. And he does not stop there. He also sells pastries and kuih to fundraise for the homeless. Jeffery is a chef who genuinely cooks from his heart. Blending East and West Cooking is an art that is full of surprises. As long as you are willing to experiment and keep trying, you get a delicious reward at the end. Hard work, but it is worth it. Jeffery spent a long time fusing his love for robust, wholesome Malaysian food and desserts with the delicate elegance of French pastries. It may have sounded like a wild idea at the beginning to ask, "can one combine the savoury spiciness of the iconic Malaysian dish Nasi Lemak with the sweetness of a classic French macaron?" It took Jeffery a year of patient experimenting in the kitchen to perfect this unique East meets West recipe. It meant creating a spicy sambal buttercream and making the coconut macaron shells topped with crunchy fried anchovies. Even just saying it makes our mouths water! Definitely a challenge and Jeffery had the happy help of his wife to do taste tests and give honest feedback to help him create this savoury dessert. (We would gladly volunteer for future taste tests of new recipes if his wife wants a break!) "Every time I see a customer’s satisfied and happy face, I feel like the luckiest person on earth and it makes me want to do more." Food for When You Miss Home For many who came to Australia for work, study or family, homesickness can appear in the form of craving for food from home. Jeffery remembers his early days in Adelaide. It was difficult to get his beloved, comforting 'kuihs' (Malaysian bite-sized desserts). As they say, necessity is the mother of inventions, and Jeffery got right down to making his own kuih by trial and error. It did not take him long to develop his own recipes and even start selling his own kuihs in Adelaide. His kuihs found their way into the stomachs and hearts of many Singaporeans and Malaysians living in Australia, who appreciated how his food was helping them cope with their homesickness. It is an achievement for any chef when people say the quality of the food is excellent, but for people to say how the food has gone straight to the cockles of their hearts and given them a sense of comfort, that is quite another level to achieve for a chef! For those of you who are lucky to live in Adelaide, if you have a chance to get hold of Jeffery's onde-onde (Malaysian-style glutinous rice ball), make sure you grab a dozen or more to stock up for those moments of homesickness! Traditional Made New Jeffery has since gone on to create other amazing fusion pastries at Cheffery's Kitchen such as the kaya (traditional coconut jam) macaron and even a teh tarik (special 'pulled' tea) macaron! Whenever we share My Blue Tea's ingredients with different chefs, we never quite know what they would cook up. Jeffery bowled us over with his pandan and blueberry cheesecake macarons made with My Blue Tea's pandan powder and butterfly blue pea flower powder . He was also the first in Adelaide to whip up pandan hot cross buns with our pandan powder! He has made the distance between the East and West a lot closer with his culinary creations. And wait till you try his pandan milo macaron - one bite is enough to remind you of home as well as awaken your tastebuds to a new exciting blend of flavours! And for the true-blue hardcore Malaysians out there who swear by your durians, you have to try Jeffery's durian kaya made with My Blue Tea's durian powder ! In fact, his durian kaya sells out very quickly! Yet another Jeffery creation you need to stock up on! East Meets West Jeffery spent a long time fusing his love for robust, wholesome Malaysian food and desserts with the delicate elegance of French pastries. Pandan Milo Macarons Awaken your tastebuds to a new exciting blend of milo and our Pandan powder! Blue Macarons Delicate and beautiful made with Butterfly Pea flower powder! Pandan Hot Cross Buns Chef Jeffery was the first in Adelaide to whip these up! Pandan Kuih Necessity is the mother of inventions, and Jeffery got right down to making his own kuih by trial and error. Durian Kaya Made with My Blue Tea's durian, this is yet another Jeffery creation you need to stock up on! Going Vegan What we admire about the chefs we have met is how they are never satisfied with just one achievement or one project. It feels like they never stop cooking! Jeffery goes beyond conquering traditional recipes and Malaysian-French innovations. He is also venturing into vegan cakes! Again, it was due to a lack of vegan cakes that he started experimenting and learning about vegan ingredients and cooking. He learnt to bake vegan cakes and play with the flavours to make it taste and feel like a normal cake. For those with a sweet tooth, this is good news as vegan cakes are healthier! This means, more desserts, guilt-free! Jeffery has since then expanded his vegan range to include vegan treats that are gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free and refined sugar-free. There is something for everyone. Jeffery counts himself lucky that he is able to turn his passion into his full-time career. He gets to be creative every single day at Cheffery's Kitchen , creating new treats that have traditional tastes as a foundation and which is given a contemporary twist to excite the modern palate. Preserving Peranakan culture is a value he holds very closely in his heart and knowing his food brings joy and comfort to people is his best reward. We are really glad Jeffery first came to Adelaide as an international student in 2005. Who would have imagined the contributions he would be making at that time? Thanks to the faith and support from Jeffery's family to help him continue in his culinary career, we are fortunate to get to enjoy his wonderful creations here. Want more?

Meet Chef Gunawan Wu who is currently Sweet Responsible Ambassador for Lakanto Australia, Chocolate Ambassador for Nestlé Professional Australia and also Chef Instructor at Scoffed Cooking School. He is dedicated to sharing his skills, passion and knowledge through his classes. Gunawan has worked in many top restaurants in Adelaide, e.g. Andre’s Cucina & Polenta Bar, Hill of Grace, Jolleys Boathouse, Mayfair. He's also a pastry chef instructor locally and internationally and is a consultant with a few restaurants specialising in the art of dessert-making. Despite his busy schedule, he is highly committed to the industry as a member of the Australian Culinary Federation. He has also become one of the accredited chef judges in the South Australia Region at a young age. Gunawan Wu Gunawan Wu Training at Le Cordon Bleu Culinary School Gunawan is an Indonesian Chinese. He came to Australia in 2013 to study a patisserie course in Le Cordon Bleu, Adelaide. Through Le Cordon Bleu’s networking, Gunawan has worked with and gained his experience from many great chefs such as Simon Bryant, Cheong Liew, Darren Purchese, Paul Gillis, Tony Carrol, Mauro Gulli and even Marco Pierre White. Daring to be different Gunawan came from a family who runs a motorcycle spare parts business in Indonesia. He is the only one of his five siblings who is in the culinary industry. He is also the youngest in the family who has been labelled the black sheep for not continuing with the family business unlike his siblings. It was not easy for Gunawan to convince his family to let him follow his aspirations. Gunawan never gave up in spite of that. Looking back, it was all well worth it as he has clearly made his parents proud with his achievements. He has been featured in newspapers, magazines and also recipe books. Food made artistic Gunawan has always loved art, b ut his dad was opposed to him studying multimedia design. So he studied for a Bachelor Degree in Hospitality and Tourism instead, specialising in Food Engineering. Life changed when he discovered that he could incorporate art into pastry making. For Gunawan, the art of plating and combining flavours allows creative expression, where he can bring his imagination into reality. He came to Australia to study in Le Cordon Bleu Australia to further his culinary knowledge and it provided a space for him to further nurture his passion for the culinary arts. Dragon fruits /Pitaya Madeleines by Gunawan Amazing Mie Goreng Chocolate Bar Sharing inspiration Gunawan aims to be a celebrity chef and continues teaching classes to share his passion, skills and knowledge. For Gunawan, inspiration is sustained by paying it forward. He himself finds inspiration from the very people he has inspired! Creativity through challenges Gunawan loves challenges and he gets a real buzz from participating in competitions. In 2013 when he was still a student in Le Cordon Bleu Adelaide, he competed in the Dilmah Real High Tea competition among head chefs and pastry chefs from the Hilton and Crown Plaza. Being the only student in the competition did not throw him off at all. He competed confidently, and his unique flavoured macarons, tom yum macarons with Dilmah Green Tea all amazed the judges and won him a bronze medal. He also challenged himself at international competitions, e.g. Savour Patissier of the year 2016, the People's Choice award, Tart Category and he was featured on the front cover of the Savour Patissier of the year 2016 recipe book for his incredible Terrarium Tart. Eccentric Indomie Mie Goreng Macarons Terrarium Tarts that won the Savour Patissier of the year 2016 award Getting creatively nostalgic with My Blue Tea Gunawan loves to create desserts with a twist. He had been looking for ingredients that reminded him of his childhood and he finally found these flavours through My Blue Tea e.g. pandan and durian flavour.
