MUDGEE MADE - Key Persons


Lara Hooper

Mudgee girl through and through and an enthusiastic cook from a little girl. Lara moved back from Sydney to Mudgee to have her children after a career in hospitality. Back in her home town, Lara is the precision and perfection of Mudgee Made and the queen of the recipe (quite necessary when creating wedding cakes). Lara lives with her family on a property 7km from town, complete with an organic vege patch to use in her cooking. There's plump, plentiful fruit from the orchard too, that's if the kids don't raid them first!

Tanya Scott

The other half is Tanya, a Sydney girl turned country. Growing up with multicultural families where food is the heart of any celebration is the essence of Tanya's food philosophy and approach to cooking.
