Whether it's a daily blog, a weekly magazine column, a newspaper article or writing the next award-winning NZ cookbook, there is always a foodie project on the go. The food loving team at www.stuff.co.nz have a wonderful page in their lifestyle section about Secret Ingredients. For past articles, simply click on www.stuff.co.nz and search Secret Ingredient.

Welcome to...

The New Zealand Guild of Food Writers

We are the professional body for food journalists and others involved in writing about, presenting, promoting, illustrating, and teaching about the specialist area of food and beverages. All our members interface with the public in some way - through magazines, newspapers, radio, TV, publishing, teaching, consultancy, PR, catering, or photography.

We encourage you to look around the website, join or contact us for more information.
