the self-learning chef
Cooking with curiosity, creativity, and endless learning.
Definition of self-learning chef:
A self-learning chef is a curious kitchen explorer who’s always hungry for more—whether it’s experimenting with new recipes, diving into cookbooks, or picking up tips from cooking videos. They’re constantly discovering fresh techniques, flavors, and ideas, making the kitchen their never-ending classroom of delicious possibilities!
about
Emily Mullen is a reformed picky eater and self-learning chef. Emily grew up addicted to watching others cook on tv, in turn testing what she could make on her own with whatever was in the fridge and pantry. Emily picked up a love for baking by making family recipes and then experimenting with new recipes, the best part was always sharing the finished products with others.
After having health issues while pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree at the University of South Carolina, Emily came to evaluate what she ate, both in daily meals and when she wanted a sweet treat so began preparing anything she ate in her kitchen. Once earning a business degree, she began to pursue studying culinary arts on her own, by reading culinary techniques, cook books, and following recipes; but there is always something to learn about food so she will always be learning.
Mrs. Mullen created Good Vibakery to share delicious baked goods made with REAL ingredients that tasted like a treat but didn’t have any canola oil, or artificial flavors. Good Vibakery has expanded to include in-home meal prep services, after sharing private cheffing for her husband, others inquired about wanting to know what was going into what they eat while with the convenience of opening their fridge with prepared foods. She also offers private event chef services, bringing personalized, gourmet meals to intimate gatherings, where guests can enjoy exceptional food in the comfort of their own homes. Good Vibakery is based on good vibes and good food.
