“But first coffee” has always been a mantra of mine! My morning coffee is an essential part of my day, but not just any coffee; I am incredibly fussy when it comes to my morning brew. Firstly, it needs to be “real” coffee, no instant in sight, and secondly, it needs to be STRONG! Bringing me to my current dilemma – how to choose the best coffee machine?

It is difficult to remember a life without online shopping! While lockdown in South Africa was terrible in so many ways, one of the positives was the increased availability of online commerce.

What a year it has been, with so much change and turmoil. I am happy to report, however, that something good has come out of 2020!

Competition entries are CLOSED!
Yuppiechef is one of my favourite online homeware stores! This is mainly because I love cooking and fancy myself as a bit of a kitchen diva! I simply love having all the latest kitchen equipment and gadgets! When I was invited to a media morning at Yuppiechef HQ I was, yes you guessed it – excited!
Yuppiechef
As well as being my go-to website, for anything for my own home, it is also my favourite when I am looking for gifts for others. I always tell my friends and family if they are unsure what to buy me – make it a Yuppiechef voucher! Their website is user-friendly and well designed. This makes it easy to navigate and find what you are looking for. They have a fabulous selection of homeware goodies and all the gadgets any self respecting kitchen diva should own! Their service is top-notch and the personalised note, which you receive with your purchase is a great touch 🙂
If you have visited my Gift Guide, you will know that Yuppiechef offer great gift soloutions, which include Gift Boxes. A recent addition to their offering is the Yuppiechef FOMOBOX, which is a monthly subscription box. Each month subscribers receive a hand-picked range of different food products. Products include coffee, biscuits, snacks, ingredients, craft beer and wine. As a subscriber, you’ll also get to try latest releases and products new to the market.
Media Morning
Our morning started off with coffee and a delicious breakfast. After which we were treated to a look behind the scenes. It was really great to meet some of the people who run this fantastic operation, as well as finding out what keeps a successful business like Yuppiechef ticking over.
After our tour each of us had the opportunity of packing a personalised gift, for a special someone in our life. Essentially giving something back!
