Chef’s choice – Kerry Kilpin, executive chef at Steenberg Farm
Kerry Kilpin’s culinary journey began on the pineapple farm in the Eastern Cape where she grew up. As a youngster she developed a love of baking and used to sell her cakes to the farmworkers’ children for pocket money.
Her entrepreneurial spirit took off when she started a cake business at boarding school. With this early exposure to baking and business under her belt, she honed her skills at the renowned Silwood School of Cookery in Cape Town from 2001 to 2003, setting the stage for what would turn out to be an impressive culinary career.
