Pepper & Me is all about delicious food that is easy for everybody. All of their pastes, salt blends, scone mixes, Mother Dukkah and a majority of their famous rubs have now been tested and confirmed gluten free and suitable for celiacs.

The Pepper & Me story

Pepper & Me is more than a food business, it's an institution - based right here in Tauranga! Cherie Metcalfe has used ten years of chef's knowledge combined with worldwide travel and a passion for eating amazing food to create a comprehensive range of spice pastes, seasoning blends, spiced salts and accessories.

Now a Tauranga local, Cherie was born in Taupo and grew up in Rotorua. Her first job was in hospitality waitressing at a restaurant called 'Herbs Place' where she eventually managed to weasel her way into the kitchen.

What followed was over a decade of building a career as a chef across the world, working as a liveaboard chef on super yachts visiting places like Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Estonia, Lithuania, Denmark, England, Portugal, Spain and the Mediterranean before settling into a good old Monday to Friday job in Auckland catering.

When her daughter Pepper was born, Cherie moved to Tauranga and the seeds of Pepper & Me were sown. A new mum passionate about breastfeeding, Cherie saw many mums struggling with it and she knew spices can help. The first Pepper & Me range was created and has grown ever since to a huge range of delicious products and kitchen accessories - she even has a couple of cookbooks under her belt!

The Pepper & Me passion is to teach people how easy it can be to turn simple cuts of meat and seasonal vegetables into impressive culinary delights, all whilst wrangling children and long days at work. They share recipe ideas and videos across Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, while loyal foodies join the Pepper & Me Club to access a huge library of recipes curated to showcase the Pepper & Me range.

Dips, salts, rubs, sprinkles, seasonings, sauces and baking mixes - the Pepper & Me range has everything a busy home cook needs to create outstanding meals.
