      How I got my job as… Co-founder of this heavenly GCC-based organic bakery

      by

      Lifeby Camille Macawili11 mins ago Welcome to the Emirates Woman weekly series ‘How I got my job as…’ where we speak to some incredible entrepreneurs and businesswomen both based in the UAE and globally to find out about their career paths that led them to where they are now; what their daily routines look like; the advice they’d give to those starting out; and the hurdles they’ve had to overcome.This week, we’re giving the spotlight to Alina Tutkova, Co-founder of Angel Cakes – a chain of organic cafe backed by renowned supermodel, philanthropist and impact investor Natalia Vodianova, dedicated to serving gluten-free and refined sugar-free desserts and breakfast. Established in 2022, Angel Cakes continues its rapid expansion journey as it continues to add locations in the pipeline including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait in 2024.Here, we speak to Alina on how she pivoted her passion for food photography and having a sweet tooth to launching Angel Cakes along with Dima Tutkov, a Grammy-nominated producer, and how she’s working towards her goal of promoting mindful eating within the culinary landscape.Scroll through to read the interview below.Angel Cakes investor Natalia Vodianova and co-founders Alina Tutkova and Dima TutkovWhat was your favourite subject at school?Contrary to what you might expect from someone with a creative flair, my favorite subjects were physics, geometry, and math. I was so passionate about them that I participated in academic competitions, even winning several prizes.What was your first job?My first job was at a modeling agency where I taught acting, fashion history and stage movement.What eventually brought you to Dubai?My journey to Dubai was driven by a desire to grow my business in this vibrant, sun-kissed city. I saw an opportunity to introduce my concept of delicious yet health-friendly desserts in a place known for its love of sweets.What inspired you to enter the F&B space?My foray into the F&B space was fueled by my love for cooking and innovating new recipes. I wanted to build a community where health-conscious people could connect.Talk us through the concept of Angel Cakes.Founded in 2022 by myself and my husband, Dima Tutkov, Angel Cakes is a chain of cafés committed to offering gluten-free and refined sugar-free desserts and breakfasts. Our mission is to provide wholesome, health-conscious options, so we focus on creating an experience where every sweet moment is also a healthy one.Promoting healthy eating and wellness is not just a business mission but a societal responsibility. Our choices influence not only individual well-being but also contribute to building a healthier community. We believe that with strength and a healthy attitude, you can make this world a better place!What are the key elements of your role?I believe that my main job is to be a role model and an advocate for natural, wholesome foods. I am also a brand chef, and I’m deeply involved in product creation, from recipe development to the aesthetic presentation.Talk us through your daily routine.My day begins with a refreshing celery juice or a smoothie, followed by a protein-rich breakfast. After dropping my kids at school, I practice yoga to energize myself for the day. I then spend time at our cafes, collaborating with my team, attending meetings, and creating recipe videos. I pursue my personal interests like singing and improving my English whenever I get the chance. Evenings are dedicated to family time: my three children and lovely husband.What advice do you have for anyone looking to follow in the same footsteps?Consistency is key in any venture, whether it’s business or adopting healthier eating habits. It’s equally crucial to stay true to your principles and aspirations, ignoring any stereotypes or distractions that might divert you from your goals.What is the best piece of advice you ever received?The best advice I’ve received is the importance of trusting, respecting, and believing in the people you work with.And what is the worst?I was once told that entrepreneurs should ignore client feedback, especially during growth phases. I strongly disagree with this. In today’s era of social media, carefully considering customer feedback is crucial for understanding and addressing their needs.What has been the biggest challenge you had to overcome?Expanding into new markets has undoubtedly been my biggest challenge, and the UAE was no exception. The complexity lies not only in adapting to a new business environment but also in understanding and respecting the unique culture and consumer preferences. There’s a delicate balance between maintaining your brand identity and tailoring it to fit the local context. Our journey to establish a foothold in the UAE was filled with learning and adaptation. However, our team’s resilience and dedication turned this challenge into a proud achievement.What are your future goals and plans for your career?My future goal as an entrepreneur is to extend Angel Cakes to more regions, spreading our mission and values. We’ve grown so much since we opened in the UAE — currently, we have four branches across the country including Dubai Mall, Bluewaters, Yas Mall and Dubai Hills Park. We also have plans for expansion into other Middle Eastern countries this year such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait.As a holistic chef, I aim to continue crafting unique, balanced products that perfectly blend taste, nutrition, and aesthetics.– For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and InstagramImages: Supplied More

      12 Of The Best Vegan Protein Powders You Can Buy Right Now

      by

      Raise your hand if you’re a vegan who’s sick of people asking you how you get enough protein. Same.

      Even though there are *plenty* of ways to get protein on a plant-based diet, vegan protein powder can help you meet your needs in a pinch.

      And, yes, dieticians say they’re legit. “Some misconceptions about vegan protein powders are that they don’t provide enough protein and that they won’t keep you full,” says Carolyn Brown, a dietitian.

      What’s in vegan protein powders?

      However, today’s vegan protein powders do both. First of all, many vegan powders contain 20 to 30 grams of protein per serving, which is totally on par with most popular whey protein powders, according to Brown. (Btw: If you’re wondering whether whey protein is vegan, the answer is a huge no. “Whey protein is one of the primary proteins found in dairy products,” says nutritionist Charlotte Martin.)

      Many plant-based powders also provide some fibre, which helps them keep you fuller, longer — and boosts their nutritional value, adds dietician Priya Khorana.

      Oh, and about that flavour issue. While vegan proteins long had a rep for tasting pretty revolting, times have changed. “Many newer proteins come in flavours like salted caramel, coconut, or even chai,” says dietician Andy Bellatti. These days, popular powders are made from hemp, brown rice, or pea protein. Not just soy.

      When hunting for vegan protein powder, consider these three major factors: protein content, types of proteins used and sweeteners. First, Martin recommends looking for a powder that contains at least 15 to 20 grams of protein per serving.

      READ MORE: Here’s Another Reason You Should Probably Stick To Your Plant-Based Diet

      Getting the most from your vegan protein powders

      Then, since most plant-based protein sources are “incomplete” (meaning they don’t contain all of — or enough of — all nine essential amino acids) on their own, opt for a protein powder made out of multiple sources, Martin says. Combining different proteins ensures your powder provides all of the aminos your body needs.

      Finally, limit any added sugar to five grams per serving, max. “I steer clear of artificial sweeteners since some research suggests they may have negative effects on metabolism, gut bacteria and appetite,” says Martin. Instead, opt for natural, zero-calorie sweeteners (like stevia).

      Whether you’re spiking your smoothies, iced coffee, or pancake mix, today’s vegan protein powders are better than ever — and totally worth your while, whether you’re a carnivore or not.

      The Top Vegan Protein Powders

      My Wellness Super Vegan Protein

      This protein combines hemp and pea protein for a rich source of essential and non-essential amino acids. They’re also bioavailable and easily digestible, a big win. It also has high levels of L-isoleucine, L-valine, L-arginine and L-Leucine, which are beneficial after a strenuous workout.

      Go Good Plant Protein Isolate

      Here, you’ll find no allergens like soya or dairy. Just the good stuff. Based on peas blended with organic vanilla beans for flavour, you’ll find this nutrient-packed vegan protein powder works wonders. Protein also boosts your immunity, FYI. A winner.

      Nutritech Vegan Pea Protein Isolate

      Nutritech Vegan Pea Protein Isolate contains 25g of naturally sourced protein per serving to increase your protein intake and further enhance your diet and lifestyle. Not only is pea protein isolate gluten, dairy and lactose-free, but it also has excellent bioavailability properties.

      Soaring Free Superfoods Protein Superfood Mix

      This vegan protein powder blend, with its short ingredient list, takes out fillers and additives, leaving you with the essential stuff. The entirely organic plant-sourced protein mix that contains natural sources of protein, antioxidants, fibre & omega 3. You can expect a chocolatey flavour from raw African Cacao powder.

      Get a full profile of amino acids and proteins from this blend. It tastes good, mixes easily and helps you hit those protein goals in one easy sip.

      Phyto Pro Thrive Protein Shake

      Great taste? Check. Easy to digest? Check! Clean protein? Check! This concentrated pea protein isolate is a 100% plant-based protein powder with the addition of raw vanilla bean powder and sweetened with xylitol and stevia for a protein shake so tasty it doesn’t need anything else.

      Harvest Table Vegan Protein Powder

      Made from a blend of organic pea and brown rice proteins, this blend includes a proprietary blend from Harvest Table of CollaV, a natural, plant-based mix. CollaV is also a source of bamboo silica, which helps your bod make collagen. And, the Harvest Table’s vegan protein blend is 81% protein and every serving contains the same quantity of glycine and proline (the amino acids that make collagen so powerful) as an animal-based collagen.

      It’s Impepho, of course! “Impepho or wild sage is an indigenous African herb that is widely used by traditional healers in spiritual prayer rituals. The herb is also used as an antifungal, antiseptic and anti-anxiety medicine,” explains Itsweng.

      And seriously, Impepho adds so much flavour to any food it is smoked with. “I use a kettle braai for smoking, but you can follow the quick smoking hack that I have included in the recipe,” says Itsweng.

      Nothing beats a good basting brush, and this one will serve you well for years to come because it’s very high quality.

      Servings 6 people

      1 Kettle braai1 Saucepan1 Blender
      1 whole Cauliflower headHandful of dried impepho herb, for smoking the cauliflower1 clove Garlic, crushed¼ cup Olive oilSalt and pepper to tasteSauce2 Red peppers, left whole2 Tbsp Olive oil1 clove Garlic, crushed1 Tbsp Smoked paprika¼ cup Lemon juice1 Tbsp Brown sugarSalt and pepper to tasteHandful of fresh parsley or thyme, chopped
      Preheat the oven to 200 °C.Bring a saucepan of water with 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt to a boil, then add the cauliflower head. Cook for 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.Smoke the cauliflower by placing a hot charcoal disk inside a small foil container, then adding a handful of dried impepho herb. When the impepho starts smoking, place it inside a kettle braai with the cauliflower. Close the kettle braai lid and allow to smoke for at least 10-15 minutes. Remove from the kettle braai and set aside. Quick hack: Use your oven as a smoker. Place the impepho on an oven tray, light it and when it starts to smoke place the tray on the bottom rack of the oven. Then place the cauliflower on the rack directly above the impepho. Close the oven and allow to smoke for 5-10 minutes.Mix the garlic with the olive oil and brush over the whole cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper. Place on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes until crisp on the outside.While the cauliflower is roasting, make the sauce by first roasting the peppers in the oven until the skins are blackened.Remove the peppers from the oven and place in a bowl, cover with clingwrap and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Once cooled, peel the skins off and blend the peppers, then set aside.Heat the oil, then add the garlic and paprika, and cook for 2 minutes on medium heat. Add the blended peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring continuously to ensure that the sauce doesn’t stick and burn.Add the lemon juice and brown sugar, cook for a further 2 minutes, then season with salt and pepper.To serve, slice the cauliflower into steaks or leave whole, then place on a platter. Pour the sauce over the cauliflower and top with chopped herbs.
