About Naomi Toilalo

About Naomi Toilalo:

Kia ora koutou katoa (hello everyone). Ko Naomi Toilalo tōku ingoa (my Name is Naomi Toilalo) and I live in Tāmaki-makaurau (Auckland) in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Here you will find a range of my favourite tohutao (recipes) that I have created over the years. A step-by-step video is attached to every recipe with all the ingredients in te reo Māori and the English translation next to them. So jump on the waka with me and together let's do some awesome baking with a heavy sprinkle of te reo Māori (Māori language).

Whānaukai Cookbook:

If you love baking from a cookbook then check out my Whānaukai Cookbook which was published in November, 2022. I only have around 10 books to sell directly to you but you can still purchase it from many awesome websites like Mighty Ape if you live in Aotearoa. Or you can purchase a book from Booktopia if you live in Australia.

Work with me:

I've had the privilege of developing many recipes over the years for New Zealand companies such as Whittakers Chocolate, Pic's Peanut Butter, Comvita Honey and Fly Buys. These recipes are for the purpose of social media marketing through Instagram, Facebook and Tik Tok.

However, the majority of the time I join forces with my super talented side-kick, Sarah Henderson. Sarah takes the photography and videography (featured throughout this website) and I do my favourite part, creating the recipes. I also create social media content solo in which I do the recipe development, simple videography and photography.

Whatever you are looking for in your social media campaign, I would love to discuss it with you!
