I use a great number of suppliers based on my needs at any one time, but the following is a list of my favourite and the ones that I use regularly:
All About Bread, 95 Wanneroo Road, Greenwood WA 9343 4430
Chris and Liz Stanley operate this bread makers’ haven. They sell all types of commercial quality bread tins (I love the Mackies bread that are made in Australia … they will last a lifetime and are worth the investment) … and also carry a huge range of flours, including wheat free and gluten free flours, and other baking ingredients and equipment.
Online store – based in VIC
Cookbooks and Thermo accessories (love their timber board that the TM sits on … it allows for easy movement on the kitchen counter and is great for other kitchen equipment like coffee machines, etc), plus lots of “foodie” items on offer.
Online store – based in WA
I just love what Brett and Ryan (they are the “two brothers”!) have to offer in terms of flours, sugars, nuts, seeds, some grocery items, and a good organic range … they deliver right across Australia too. Delivery costs are inexpensive, and if you are local you have the option to “click and collect” from their outlet in West Perth.
Carine Health Shop
Carine Glades Shopping Centre, 485 Beach Road, Duncraig WA 9447 9933
The three lovely ladies at Carine Health: Leonie, Mei and Kim, are part owners of this business, so you will always find one of them there to help you with your needs. All three ladies have helped me enormously source stock that is not on their shelves, and they are more than happy to try to get in whatever they can for you if it is available.
Leonie is also a qualified Nutritionist and Naturopath, which is an added bonus for those that need that support. Bookings can be made direct to Leonie via the store or on:
email: leoniehenderson@gmail.com; or mobile: 0438 443 588
Grant Derepas from G-Force Web Technologies is the wonderful person who helps keep my website working and in top order, and doesn’t mind that I ask him some pretty lame questions at times! I absolutely love technology, but most of it goes over my head! So if you need support with developing your website, maintaining it, or anything else to do with this technology, touch base with Grant on 0433 285 538.

Yoghurt makers, culture starters, etc. and a great source of information and supplies on a variety of cultured foods.
Online store – based in NZ
For restaurant quality Vanilla Bean Paste, vanilla beans, and vanilla extract in commercial sizes … product and delivery is not cheap, but this is a case of “you get what you pay for” … share an order with a friend to save on delivery costs.
Online store – based in NSW
Herbies is based on the Central Cost of NSW, and retail their product in stores across Australia … but you can easily order online and they will deliver direct to your door within a couple of days. They offer a great range and the quality is fabulous (there are no fillers, starches, MSG, free-flow agents or additives of any kind in their products). They also have some fabulous gift ideas for the “foodies” we all know.

Huge variety of kitchen equipment … this business is aligned with Kitchen Warehouse which is their retail arm with stores across Perth and now in Melbourne too.

Online store – based in Byron Bay, NSW
Offers a huge range of organic foods, books, DVDs, recipes, and information … delivery can be expensive (when living in WA), but I have found the products to be of a high quality.

Delivery Australia wide … Debbie Wuoti and her team offer a great range of accessories that are especially designed to be used with Thermo appliances … in particular I love their bread mats and spatulas which I use a lot, as well as their cleaning products (large and mini brushes, and non scratch pads) which are excellent for keeping your Thermo bowl sparkling clean.
