Reviews

  • The sisterly cooking brand, Hemsley + Hemsley, is fast becoming a household name, like Marmite or Nutella. But unlike Marmite, you either love them, or you really love them, and unlike Nutella, they spread deliciously healthy food stories around the world.

The Art of Eating Well is Jasmine and Melissa’s bestselling first cookbook; Good + Simple is their second. In 2015 the Hemsleys launched their sell-out spiralizer, which quickly became a must-have kitchen utensil.
