As a result of her zest for travel, she developed an imaginative variety of tastes, from the Mediterranean to the Great Barrier Reef to the Himalayas. Today she runs a successful catering business and teaches regular cookery courses in the UK. Victoria has written several popular cookbooks including Diva Cooking and The Cooking Book (DK), and has co-authored six Books for Cooks titles. She regularly appears on food shows in the US and Canada.
