The Today Show
The Today Show Channel 9 was live in Contemporary Cakes, cake studio Easter Saturday
Jackie was interviewed about the cakes and food made for Bridget Jones Diary,
Finding Neverland and Wimbledon and other movies, when Jackie lived in the U.K and worked as a chef.
Whilst working in the U.K. Jackie was a Head Chef for a catering company Champagne and Caviar based in East Sussex.
It was there that Jackie met Gina Craig who works as a freelance food stylist for various films and commercial productions.
Her company Blue Soup was used by various film producers and production teams, due to her reputation of good quality food produced for filming.
Food has to be prepared and then cooked and then reheated for consumption, the actors do not pretend to eat it, and they really do eat it!
Jackie’s food and cakes have been used as both background props
and also as the main feature in scenes and featured in the following films:
