Welcome to Emily’s World - I’m so happy you’ve found your way here. This little corner of the internet is where food, care, and community come together. I create and share recipes that are meant to be cooked with love, enjoyed with others, and made even better with a good playlist on in the background.

Alongside developing and writing my own recipes, I also cater and bake for life’s moments, from birthdays and celebrations to more tender times like funerals. I prepare nourishing nesting boxes for new parents and for those recovering from hospital stays, offer meal prep for busy individuals and families, and cater for corporate clients including meetings and product launches.

Think of this as a cosy, shared recipe book and kitchen table all in one, a place built on kindness, creativity, and good food. Head to the catering section to learn more about my services, or to the recipes section to cook and bake along with me. I’m so glad you’re here, and I hope my food brings a little comfort, connection, and ease into your everyday life!

About Emily

I’ve loved food for as long as I can remember. My grandma was a fabulous cook & baker, and many of my recipes are inspired by the nostalgia of her kitchen, the smell of something sweet in the oven, the joy of sharing food with the people you love.

I started working as a chef when I was 17, spending years in some beautiful restaurants across Newcastle, before leaving my title as Head Chef to move to Canada for a few months. Once home, I was running my co-owned bakery for eight years with my bakes being rooted in comfort and nostalgia, which they still are! While my cooking style often brings in the flavours of Eastern Asia.

My business, Rosewood and Lovaine began in the simplest of ways: a little community shelf outside our home where I put out practice bakes as I honed my lamination skills. Neighbours could pick them up, drop a few pennies in for charity, and soon that tiny idea grew into something much bigger.

What began as a kind gesture turned into a community, and then into my full-time work. Now, Rosewood and Lovaine has been featured in I Love North Shields, Appetite Magazine, BBC Radio Newcastle, BBC One, and The Evening Chronicle, but at its heart, it’s still just about sharing good food, made with care, in the spirit of kindness and connection.
