Food Bloggers
Craig and Shaun from London, and of Jamaican descent, started ‘Original Flava’ in March 2016, creating easy step-by-step Caribbean food recipe videos online. Their videos went viral and their online following hit 70,000+ in one month.
Their passion was inspired by their mother and grandmother’s mouth-watering cooking, mealtimes were an occasion not to be missed growing up! Their love for food grew from eating to cooking and adding their own twist to the traditional dishes of the Caribbean. At present, they’ve amassed over 850k+ followers across their social media channels with nearly 500k of those followers on Facebook alone.
With three best-selling cookbooks, a restaurant residency at Market House in Brixton and numerous TV appearances, the Original Flava brand is going from strength to strength.
