About COOK
Inspired by the meals his mum batch-cooked and froze in old ice cream tubs, Ed founded COOK in 1997 with his friend Dale, a catering chef. They dreamed of making the world’s best prepared meals and doing business differently from the crowd.
Having helped found the UK wing of the responsible business movement B Corp in 2014, COOK is at the forefront of redefining the purpose of business, so it works for people and the planet, not just profit. We have won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise for our RAW Talent employment scheme, giving people a second chance after prison, homelessness and other challenges. Every year our meals win Great Taste Awards and glowing reviews from customers and in the national press.

COOK Christmas Dinner
Buying a COOK Christmas dinner when I’m hosting is basically cheating and I love it. None of the stress, all of the home comforts and more time to chill with my loved ones. I’m not sure I can go back to doing it all from scratch now - if I do then it will be against my will, kicking and screaming. COOK is the way.

I was a bit underwhelmed with my pie this time unfortunately I normally love it. I also think because it has gone up probably was quite expensive for what it was

Goats cheese & red pepper quiche
Scrummy deep filled quiche. Smelt delicious in the oven and the taste didn’t disappoint. Looked homemade compared to other brands. Enjoyed by all at the lunch and I’d certainly buy it again.

My experience has been mostly great
My experience has been mostly great, except for the most recent.
I bought 2 cakes some months ago and they were excellent - the large carrot cake and the chocolate cake. They both cut up very well even when unfrozen. But last month I bought the torte and the small chocolate cake, and when they unfroze they both became very squishy and rather more like puddings than cakes. They did however taste very good all the same.
