TODAY at 2pm (UK Time) >> Speakeasy with Susie
Tune in today at 2pm as Susie is joined by Tan Rosie Foods!
Tan Rosie was a beloved community figure, inspiring her granddaughter Monica to name the business in her honor. In the Caribbean, “Tan” is an affectionate term for “Aunt,” making Tan Rosie both a tribute to family roots and the love she inspired.
Monica’s lifelong passion for food stems from family recipes, cookery shows, and countless gatherings. Since moving to England in the 1960s, she has blended her Caribbean heritage with other cuisines, creating unique dishes that celebrate the flavors of home.
Her daughter Lee grew up savoring Monica’s cooking and later brought her design expertise from an international career into the brand. Together, they built Tan Rosie, uniting traditional Caribbean recipes with modern creativity to share their heritage through distinctive food products.
