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
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) … they also carry a huge range of 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 across Australia too.
Online store – based in QLD
For wheat free uncontaminated oats: people who are not sensitive to the protein avenin will be able to consume these oats … check out website for full information of where the oats come from, and the testing they undergo … excellent product.
Online store – based in QLD
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.
Online store – based in the US
This is where I buy my freeze dried berries, cod liver oil (brings back memories of being a kid … but so good for you!), as well as some other supplements … they offer a huge range of other organic and nutritional goods.
Online store – based in WA
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.
Beate Ruuch
Based in Fremantle, WA
For all your online marketing and media needs … and so much more! Beate has helped me finalise this website, and get it up and running … without her this wouldn’t have happened … thank you Beate!
Kwik Kopy
236 Main Street
Osborne Park WA
For all your printing and design needs … Denise and her team have helped me enormously, and have proven to be a wonderful and valuable resource.

On-line store – based in NSW
Free delivery on orders over $50. PSF specialise in organic, vegan, raw, Low GI, fairly traded, gluten-and-dairy-free functional foods, and aim to lead the industry in introducing these unique foods to the Australian marketplace. Their premium quality “superfoods” are free from artificial preservatives or colours, synthetic flavourings or additives, and packed here in Australia with love. Fabulous range, but in particular I love their cacao and seaweed products.
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 … they offer a collection of everyday and hard-to-source ingredients, be it spices, spice mixes, chillies, curry powders or rose petals just to name a few … authentic family recipes are used to make their Middle Eastern and Moroccan spices, and their Preserved Lemons are hand-crafted using locally grown spray free lemons from Swan Valley in Perth … great products.
30 Ledgar Road
Balcatta WA
Phone: 9276 6966
Thermomix brushes, accessories, and Thermomix cookbooks – if you are in Perth you can buy over the counter to save postage … call to check supplies first before going in, or order online.
Online store – based in QLD
Free delivery Australia wide, where 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.
