Finding a recipe for your favorite dish or go-to snack has never been easier with the help of various social media platforms that give us the information that we need. What more can we ask for? Gone are the days when we would scan through our cookbooks and discover recipes from it. Though, there’s still nothing that beats our own passed-down family tradition’s food recipe.
Luckily, with Tik Tok’s fast-paced platform we now get to gauge the difficulty level of a dish depending on how it’s being shown to us. When being done the right and easy way, it kind of gives us the help and the push that we need to try it for ourselves. Just grab a little bit of this and that!
Remembering the early days of the pandemic, wherein most of us are challenged with how we should create the perfect dalgona coffee and share it to our friends is one, but to consistently sharing recipes in a direct and the simplest way is another.
Having a skill in making tasty food and developing one’s talent for more people to understand is what these food content creators on TikTok create.
In a world where everything seems to be going by so quickly, you wouldn’t feel left out with their food contents as they are created simple enough to be understood.
Kirby Quimado
Kirby Quimado began his journey when he developed an obsession with foreign food content creators and discovered that he too could produce clean, concise videos and easy-to-follow recipes. Not to mention how enjoyable it is to see. He then grabbed his father's old DSLR camera, some leftover ingredients and started from there. The thrill of preparing something from scratch, creating a flavorful treat, and satisfying content gave Kirby the confidence to keep believing in himself and continue to create videos for his audience, who eventually loved it.

When more and more people who’ve seen and tried Kirby’s recipes started sharing their own self- prepared food from his videos, he thought to himself “What I am doing is effective and really reaches people. People thank me for introducing these recipes to them and more especially for making it very simple for them. That’s when I realized that I want to make more videos to help people make their own dessert/food at home. Giving them also a reason that there is no need to go out to buy desserts”
His talent and skills helped him hone his craft and having an understanding of what his followers needed is his key point in most of his content. Simple and straightforward.

When we asked where Kirby gets his recipes he replied “I get ideas from recipes on the internet and adjust according to my taste and style. Some recipes are created from my own ideas since I really love cooking”
From brand collaborations and contributions to blog articles, Kirby’s dream of working with his dream brands continues to go on as more opportunities come in his way.
He consistently strives to produce concise, easy - to - understand recipes that can aid his followers in learning quickly and easily. He enjoys pushing more people to try new recipes and doable food ideas at home, as well as doing so for his fellow food content creators.
Franziee_v
Franz Angelie L. Valencerina or also known as Franziee_v on Tik Tok, has always had a passion for cooking since she was a young. Her interest in cooking was prompted when her cousin persuaded her to watch Food Network.
When the lockdown occurred due to the pandemic, creating food-related videos truly began as a hobby. Since she frequently creates a variety of food combinations in line with her best friends' appetites, she wanted to document what they eat, just like what most of us did during the early days of the pandemic. Throwback to our dalgona coffee and ube cheese pandesal days!

When her Soy Garlic Chicken bites became a trend and a lot of people wanted to try it, she realized she wanted to make more videos as cooking serves as a stress reliever for Franz. Her recipes are based on the cravings of her besties and most of the time she’s the one brainstorming and doing the tweaks to create their specific requests!

The music and the overall vibe of Franz’s videos is what makes her content distinctive. The touch of sunlight is also a main factor as it creates a peaceful atmosphere. Being one of the top food content creators on Tik Tok also paved her way to work together with her dream brands.
Bringing new content to her viewers is her next target. Since she is known for creating aesthetically pleasing food content, Franz also wants to take on creating ASMR type of videos but to also show more creative recipes and food recommendations from her followers.
