Developing recipes that will capture the hearts of consumers is half the battle, and you need a culinary warrior in your court to deliver. Zoglo's Incredible Food recently announced its new Chief Culinary Officer is none other than award-winning chef, Pino Di Cerbo.
"As a father and husband, I empathize with the modern consumer's struggle with creating home-cooked meals given our hectic schedules. With Zoglo's products, I have the option to put food that is delicious, healthy, and environmentally-friendly, on the dining table within minutes from the freezer," commented Di Cerbo in a press release. "Zoglo's products and recipes enable a stimulating and easy cooking experience with flavorsome and scrumptious food as the outcome. I am excited to build something that is bigger than just food and delivers on Zoglo's mission of inspiring sustainable practices and making the world a better place, one plant-based meal at a time."
In his new role, he will guide in developing quality plant-based food products, designing recipes, and enhancing consumer engagement with the company.
Throughout his career, Di Cerbo has displayed his culinary skill and passion through multiple television appearances, cooking classes, and the launch of his high-end culinary private chef business, Pino Di Cerbo Cucina Rustica.
He rose to prominence in 2014 after placing sixth in CTV's MasterChef Canada's inaugural season. He won the subsequent MasterChef Canada Holiday and All-Star: Family Edition specials. Di Cerbo has also collaborated with Wolf Sub-Zero Aurora Importing, and health and wellness institutes advocating proper nutrition.
He has been engaged as a personal chef for multiple clients including former Toronto Raptors player, DeMarre Carrol, and has supported many charitable and nonprofit organizations through his cooking for fundraisers and educational initiatives such as his "Kids In The Kitchen" program.
Congratulations to Chef Pino Di Cerbo on this new role!
