I’m Arwen, a Hobart Thermomix Consultant.
I’m passionate about delicious food. I love cooking and experimenting with flavours and different cuisines from all around the world. I also have dreams of one day having my own cooking show. It was this dream and my love of food that led me to an exciting Thermomix career in 2011. You can buy a Thermomix or host a Thermomix Cooking experience.
I love using my Thermomix, often using it multiple times a day to quickly whip up delicious meals and treats at home for family and friends. I source fresh, local produce and ingredients whenever I can (including harvesting produce from my own kitchen garden). I love cooking every single element of a dish from scratch so I am guaranteed to get maximum flavour into my food.The Thermomix makes this so quick & easy to do. Taste & see for yourself – either host a Thermomix Cooking Experience & or buy a Thermomix now! I am a trained NDIS Thermomix consultant and I’m experienced in commercial Thermomix sales for restaurants, cafes & schools.
In 2021 I started making the Darren Purchese recipe for Lemon Curd Basque Cheesecake and since then I have added a few tweaks of my own. I have made over a hundred of these amazing cheesecakes to surprise friends, customers, colleagues and my favourite restaurants and cafes.
