The Routine That Changed Everything for Chef de la Maison
For years, I’ve searched for routines that truly make a difference—not just quick fixes, but practices that feel natural, sustainable, and rewarding. At last, I’ve found one. It’s a routine I haven’t needed to change because the results have been so effective.
What makes it special is its simplicity. It’s not only about what I consume, but equally about what I don’t. This focus has transformed more than just my personal wellbeing—it’s shaped how we create, refine, and serve food at Chef de la Maison.
The Power of Removing One Ingredient
Sometimes, the biggest improvements come from subtraction, not addition. On many occasions, all it has taken is removing just one ingredient. Then, we roll up our sleeves, experiment harder, and work through the failures until we get it right.
This process has been the driving force behind our latest bakery creations and our luxury afternoon tea range. The results?
Zero refined sugar
Zero ultra-processed oils
A stronger focus on locality
The taste hasn’t been lost—it’s actually been elevated! Each recipe feels cleaner, more natural, and more satisfying.
Food That Fuels Health and Performance
Eating this way has reshaped my health and performance in ways I didn’t expect. I have more energy, sharper focus, and, perhaps most importantly, a deeper appetite for wholesome foods.
Of course, this doesn’t mean I’ve given up pastries, breads, or cakes. Far from it! What it does mean is paying closer attention to the details:
Butter vs. margarine
Coconut oil vs. canola
Unfiltered vs. filtered
These small choices add up, and they matter more than we often realize.
A Triumph at Peterborough Cathedral
One of my favourite examples of this new approach came recently from our own Baking Queen at Chef de la Maison. She took on the challenge of perfecting our fruit loaf cake—just in time for a prestigious event at Peterborough Cathedral, for The High Sheriff of Rutland.
The cake was a triumph! Moist, flavourful, and 100% naturally sweetened. It wasn’t designed to be a “health food”—but it was food that supports better gut health, with ingredients your body can actually digest.
And that makes a world of difference. When food is both indulgent and wholesome, it not only delights the palate—it makes you feel good long after the last bite.
The Future of Indulgence
At Chef de la Maison, this is the path forward: indulgence that’s rooted in wellness, flavour born from nature, and recipes that evolve from mindful choices.
Because great food doesn’t just fill you up—it fuels how you live, how you feel, and how you thrive.
Embracing Change in Catering
In the world of catering, change is essential. We’ve embraced a new philosophy at Chef de la Maison. We focus on creating dishes that not only taste great but also nourish the body. This shift is about more than just food; it’s about a lifestyle.

The Importance of Local Ingredients
One of the cornerstones of our approach is sourcing local ingredients. When we use fresh, local produce, we not only support our community but also enhance the quality of our dishes. Local ingredients are often more flavorful and nutritious.
By prioritizing local sourcing, we create a connection between our food and the land. It’s a win-win situation! You get to enjoy delicious meals, and we get to support local farmers and producers.
