ABOUT
THE BOOZY SPOON
The Boozy Spoon was founded in 2023 by Jemma, who recognised an opportunity to reinvent sorbet with a modern twist. She elevated this classic dessert by infusing it with premium alcohol, creating a fresh and innovative offering. The Boozy Spoon features a carefully curated selection of unique, contemporary flavours designed to reflect evolving consumer tastes. "At The Boozy Spoon, we transform your favourite cocktails into indulgent sorbets and ice creams.”

JEMMA
FOUNDER AND CREATOR
Jemma, outside of The Boozy Spoon HQ: Mum to Hugo and her fur baby Ralphy; running along the Warners Bay Esplanade; breathing through a pilates class; sipping a spicy margarita; cooking for friends; and experimenting with her latest boozy dessert.
Growing up in Sydney’s inner city, Jemma, was food curious from a young age; enjoying every cuisine. This passion inspired her love of home cooking and travel: from living in London fresh out of school; a stint in Nepal, then Toronto; and finally settling in Newcastle with her family.
Jemma has worked in hospitality, event styling; and as a travel consultant. Marry food, fun and an entrepreneurial spirit; and The Boozy Spoon was born: through cocktails not being shaken, or stirred, but churned.
Favourite Boozy products: “My first ‘boozy baby’, my Pina Colada ice cream: tropical, smooth and creamy; OR for a decadent delight, the Hazelnut Liqueur; it’s a date night on my own.”
