Chef Kate

Chef Kate Offering an affordable tailor-made personal chef service from my council certified kitchen on the Gold Coast.

For more info email me at kateoberholzer@gmail.com. Whether you’re time poor, have special dietary requirements or just need a little help in the kitchen, I provide a weekly, fortnightly or monthly cooking service where I will cater for you within your own home. I can create a customized meal plan, shop for groceries if required, prepare the meals and of course, clean up after myself. A little about myself... I have worked in many different environments including a top end hotel, a uni campus, an organic café and even as a chef at a kindergarten. Most recently I worked at a leading health retreat which honed my skills in cooking for individuals with specific dietary requirements as well as expanding my knowledge on organic cooking without using sugar, gluten or dairy. My rate is $45 per hour and I work a minimum of 3 hours. These meals can be eaten fresh and/or be portioned down and individually packaged and frozen down for whenever they are required. Drop me a line if you'd like to give my service of try at kateoberholzer@gmail.com.

When your friend asks you to her disco garden party you say yes and you bring a cake along to match the theme. I don’t want to to toot my own trumpet but I think I nailed it 😄

The flavour was chocolate with rich chocolate ganache between the layers and covered with a passionfruit buttercream, it was 🤌🏼

Happy birthday Erica! We love you 🫶🏼

I had a rare day off today so thought I'd do some baking.
We have an abundance of huge, juicy lemons from a couple of trees in our garden that were just begging to be used so I decided to try a lemon drizzle cake using a recipe.
I substituted the flour with gluten free flour and it still turned out really well. It didn't rise as much with the gluten free flour but it still had a good crumb and is so lemony and tasty. Not quite sure how I'm going to stay away from it 😆
If you'd like to make this ridiculously delish cake then you can find it in the link on under Lemon pound cake.

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there... what would we do without your love and care ❤️

Today I spoilt my mom with:

•Crumbed goats cheese with fresh berries, prosciutto, walnuts, mixed leaves and honey dressing
•Creamy prawn and dill pies with steamed buttery veg and mini baked potatoes
•Strawberries and cream pavlova

Safe to say my mom loved it 😁

Thanks to cousin for the beautiful wine from a winery in Constantia, Cape Town. It was worth the wait.
And to Jake and Riikka for coming all the way from Finland. We love you 😘

After having so much rain on the Gold Coast lately, the last few days have been magic! That absolute sweet spot that occurs in autumn where you have those perfect windless, warm days and cooler evenings. My favourite time of the year and then so soon it'll be sweater weather.

I had friends over for lunch on Sunday. We had:

•Feta stuffed olives and peppers
•The smokiest baba ganoush you could ever imagine with crackers
•Spinach and feta spanakopita
•Garden salad
•Rose-scented Greek yoghurt panna cotta with macerated berries and pistachios

Yum!
