Cuddly Cook Annabelle White Working with Bupa Food Services

Serious about their food service Bupa Care Homes have recently partnered with Celebrity Cook Annabelle White and have produced a training DVD which is fronted by Annabelle White and includes cooking tips from the “Cuddly Cook” herself.

To ensure continued improvement in delivery food services area, Bupa Care Homes is running a food services programme throughout 2010 to specifically target this area. Part of the programme delivery includes a DVD hosted by local celebrity Cook Annabelle White.

The DVD, designed to inspire and motivate, features Annabelle White demonstrating how to prepare four key dishes from the Bupa menu and how the chefs and kitchen staff can add their own twist.

While the DVD is designed to give inspiration to staff and encourage them to put their own twist on the standard Bupa menu’s to enhance the flavour it also provides tips on food presentation. Bupa Care Homes provide care for residents with ranging eating needs where chefs are catering for standard meals through to pureed diet where presentation becomes even more important.

“Bupa aspires to provide the best for our residents. Food is so important to health and well being and we are delighted to have Annabelle involved working in partnership with us”. said Grainne Moss, General Manager of Care Homes.

Ongoing development of the food service area will continue with the business improvement team as Bupa strive to provide the highest standards and quality in aged care.
