Ella Canby (née Prichard) - london, UK and international recruitment

Sugarella Cooks was born in October 2015, it continues to grow and has so far succeeded in many happy placements. As Ella has first-hand experience working as a private chef for many years, she feels she is the best person to be recruiting for this industry. Not only does Ella know what the client wants, she also knows what the candidate wants and feels this is the combination both parties need.




Veronica had a tough challenge from me - prepping and cooking food for 80 people. She did an amazing job and her food was excellent. Very impressed.

Ella - a little note to say a very big thank you for finding us a cook for New Year’s Eve. I am sorry it was all rather short notice and stressful prior to the event – you handled things beautifully and it all worked out well in the end so well done you!

Rather belatedly (well it is Christmas!), I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for organising Charlton to come and work his magic at our early Christmas lunch. It was absolutely delicious - everyone was most complimentary. Charlton was a joy to work with and really good fun - it was all so easy and everything was cleared up. So thank you to you and to him!

Central to the enjoyment and a major factor in our re-booking this year was the quality of the cooking that we experienced in 2016. It’s fair to say that Toby took the meals provided to a higher level, over and above what we were hoping for. Considering the cramped, basic facilities that are the norm for small boats, we were astounded by the range and quality of the meals and snacks that were on offer throughout the 6 day holiday. Toby did a superb job for us.
