Testimonials
Livia is very good at giving the background of the recipe and very helpful at adapting to the available of ingredients.
Suzanne
I really enjoyed Livia explaining why we do things a certain way – eg kneading the dough by hand rather than by machine. Although I’m an experienced cook, I always learn something with her.
