About your host

Rashieda Ockards is that one caring community aunty that everyone greets and tends to pop in at, she is always giving something to nibble on and affectionately known by family, friends, and locals as Aunty Sieda. She has particularly become known for her donuts [a lighter less spicier version of the popular Cape Town Koesister] and you can get to experience her making it and try your hand at it too. Then get your teeth sunk into these delicious melt in your mouth morsels of doughy goodness, covered in a sugary syrup and sprinkled with desiccated coconut. You will know why she ends up making thousands each month.
