Chloe Kay Coscarelli (born October 14, 1987) is an award-winning vegan chef [2] and author. She was the first vegan to ever win a culinary competition on television.
Career [edit]
Coscarelli's stated goal is to bring delicious, meat-free dishes to a mainstream audience. She was a contestant in Cupcake Wars and her vegan cupcakes wowed the judges and garnered her first prize.[3][2] Coscarelli is a graduate of UCB, [4] where she discovered her love for cooking while sneaking baked goods into the library and making cakes for her friends. A summer internship at Millennium, a San Francisco gourmet vegan restaurant, led to a course of study at The Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City.[5] Ms. Coscarelli followed that with entry into Cornell University's Plant-Based Nutrition program.
Coscarelli was featured in the Cooking Channel television documentary "The Veg Edge" and has appeared on NBC's The Today Show, VH1, CNN, HLN's Jane Velez-Mitchell Show and the Fran Drescher Show.
In 2012, Coscarelli published her first cookbook, entitled Chloe's Kitchen.
In 2013, her second cookbook, Chloe's Vegan Desserts, was published.
