The Team

I started thinking about Pure Flavour in Summer 2005, when I was pregnant with my twins. After years of health problems, omitting wheat and dairy has made an incredible difference to my life. Trying to stick to a ‘free from’ and healthy diet when you are busy at work, at home, with children & with all that life throws at you is tough though.

It was shocking how limited the choice of good tasting, ‘free from’ food there was on the market, particularly with so many people choosing or needing to keep to special diets these days. I started to cook myself and was thrilled to discover I could create delicious, health conscious alternatives; the business grew from there. Now, Pure Flavour offers a range of over twenty different products, which all taste delicious. My aim is to make real tasting ‘free from’ produce, while still being health conscious meaning that they are not laden with saturated fats, excess sugar or nasty preservatives.

A little bit about my former life… I worked in sales and marketing for 7 years. I was based in the UK at first and then Singapore and Hong Kong. Having lived abroad, where foods vary so much, I know how difficult it can be to always stick to a ‘free from’ diet. The arrival of my boys meant finding something I could do from home, so I took this opportunity to develop my tinkerings in the kitchen into a business for the boys & I.

In fact our passion and ideas are so similar it is scary, I was therefore really excited that she was keen to join us at Pure Flavour. Clare has fantastic experience and is very dedicated to health & vitality through food.

Having suffered from the effects of stress, yeast infection, food intolerances and Irritable Bowel Syndrome, she really understands the importance of healthy free from foods.

Nicci, Julian and Daisy Nicci, Julian & Daisy Gurr, produce our delicious range of home-grown, home-made ready meals. I met Nicci, at our local Farmers Market, Cranbrook in Kent – we had lots in common, from our insatiable interest in delicious, honest food to our gorgeous kids. We soon realised that we could start a great business relationship & our Ready Meals are going from strength to strength. See ‘About Ready Meals’ for more great information.


Tina Wakefield Tina is another wonderful addition to our talented team of ladies. Having been introduced through a mutual friend, I have been very impressed with Tina’s artistic eye, she is definitely a perfectionist! Tina is a lady of many talents; she juggles her teenage children with teaching Sugar Craft in a local college to being a governor to a local school. Tina has already created a cake that was taken all the way to Norway to see the Northern lights for a 40th Birthday!

Karen and Tricia of Bonnie Shortie Karen and Tricia, have been friends with Nicci (our Pure Flavour ready meal chef) at Warehorne farmers market. When Nicci knew that I needed help with producing more of our delicious Gluten, Wheat and Dairy free cakes — she immediately recommended Karen and Tricia. After a few phone calls, coffees, sampling cakes, I am so pleased that they have come on board to help produce our fabulous range of cakes. Both ladies who have changed direction from their careers and found themselves cooking delicious cupcakes and squeezing in running a business around their children and family — more ladies to join our lovely Pure Flavour clan. Look out for those monthly specials!

Cakes for the Queen's party

A CAKE-MAKER has been told her treats are fit for a queen.

Emma Slinn's gluten and dairy free goodies have been so successful since she launched them a year ago that she received a call with an order from Buckingham Palace.
Guests at the Queen's summer garden parties last month were treated to two specialities made by the 33-year-old, from Brede, near Hastings.

She has been told her mini lemon drizzle and coffee sponge cakes went down a storm, although she has not yet found out whether any passed Her Majesty's lips.

Emma, who runs the company PUre Flavour, said "I've been told the Queen checks on all the food being served to I have a nice image of her walking beside a long table and when she gets to the cakes one of the staff stops her to point out they are a new addition. Of course, she then tastes one and thinks it is delicious."

The palace's caterers were looking for a supplier of cakes suitable for people intolerant of gluten and dairy products. Emma, herself gluten intolerant, said they had discovered her website, www.pureflavour.co.uk, and asked for samples. They placed an order for hundreds within hours.
