Toni Brancatisano was brought up in Australia by her Calabrian father and her English mother, surrounded by an abundance of fresh produce, and amazing food prepared by her culinary talented mother. Even though she became a Registered Nurse after school, her passion for food led her to Italy where she has lived since 1998. Spending 15 years in Tuscany, Toni is now based in Rome where her work and life revolves around 'la buona cucina'! She has hosted several TV series on the Italian food channel, Gambero Rosso, and has appeared on various other television and radio shows in Italy and Australia. She was a guest chef at The Melbourne Food and Wine show in 2011, and her first book on cake decorating was published in 2012 by Gribaudo Feltrinelli. Toni occasionally caters for special clients, and she has cooked for both the Australian and New Zealand Embassies in Rome. Apart from developing recipes and food styling for her blog, she has also worked as an assistant food stylist for International advertising campaigns here in Rome. Toni currently works as a food tour guide, offering private and specialised food and shopping tours.
