  • E.6 Imme Ermgassen Co-Founder of Botivo on enjoying the small moments and being obsessed with eggs
    Aug 18 2024

    In this episode, we are joined by Imme Ermgassen Co-Founder of Botivo, a big sipping botanical aperitivo which is taking the non-alcoholic industry by storm.


    Its unique flavour which takes a year to craft along with its vibrant and engaging branding isn't a product centred around moderation but rather a drink for any occasion whether you want to pair it with tequila or a soda. Botivo is a vehicle for making memories and Imme shares her journey to co-founding the brand with co-founder Sam.


    We highlight the importance of branding when it comes to food and drink as well as of course the taste of the product which is also delicious!


    We also touch on Imme's morning routine (or maybe lack of in this case) and her obsession with eggs.


    Imme and Podcast host Georgia enjoy a delicious breakfast of a smoothie bowl topped with smooth peanut butter, ManiLife and Spoon granola, chia seeds, cacao nibs and blueberries

  • E.5 Jonny Shimmin on chaotic early mornings and founding Spoon Granola
    Jun 26 2024

    In this episode, we are joined by Jonny Shimmin, one of the Co-Founders of Spoon Granola. Jonny provides a glimpse into mornings at the Shimmin household, the experience of raising two young boys, and the story behind the founding of Spoon Granola.


    We delve into the origins of Spoon Granola, reminiscing about its early days and exploring what the future holds for the brand.


    Georgia and Jonny enjoyed a delicious PB&J Chia Pudding topped with Spoon's Almond Butter and Apple Granola while discussing how context influences the perfect breakfast. For instance, papaya with fresh lime feels very different when enjoyed on a beach in Thailand compared to a Monday morning in a London flat!


    The recipe for the Chia Pudding is:


    Per person:

    2 Tbsp Chia Seeds

    2 Tbsp Coconut Yoghurt

    125ml Coconut milk

    1 Tbsp Raspberry Jam

    1 Tbsp Peanut Butter


    Layer it on top of each other and top it with granola and raspberries


    In this episode we discuss the following:


    • Jonny's morning routine
    • Jonny's non-negotiables
    • Jonny's go-to breakfast in the morning
    • His favourite Spoon Granola
    • What to look for when you're choosing a granola as a consumer
    • Where the idea for Spoon Granola came from
    • The biggest challenges in running Spoon Granola
    • Jonny's career before Spoon
    • Corporate vs Founder
    • The future of Spoon
