Hi there,

I'm Shareba, the creator behind the food blog In Search Of Yummy-ness (which I started in 2010!).

I have a Culinary Arts Certificate from George Brown College in Toronto, Ontario, and over 16 years of blogging experience.

I love developing recipes for my website and am passionate about food photography.

Every recipe on this website is developed, tested, written, styled, and photographed in my own home. No AI-generated content here!

What you'll find in my newsletter:

  • Cozy dishes and drinks that make every season feel a little more special.
  • Caribbean comfort food rooted in my Trinidadian heritage.
  • Practical how-to guides to help you build confidence in the kitchen.

I share comfort-food recipes for every season, and the occasional behind-the-scenes moment from my kitchen and garden.

If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, I'd love to have you join us!

I hope you enjoy my recipes! Thanks for reading ๐Ÿ’Œ.
