“HOMEMADE UNFILTERED”

Unilever brands, Hellmann’s and Best Foods, join as launch partners for real-time cooking series at ShopHomemade.com

(New York, NY – December 5, 2019) – Academy Award and Emmy Award-winning entertainment company, Believe Entertainment Group, and Dola Media, Inc., come together with Ayesha Curry, bestselling cookbook author, restaurateur, and founder of lifestyle hub Homemade, to launch a new content initiative, “Homemade Unfiltered,” that premiered in late November 2019 on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and ShopHomemade.com.

“Homemade Unfiltered” gives viewers the opportunity to cook alongside Ayesha Curry, in real time, with six episodes rolling out through mid-December. Each episode will feature Ayesha’s modern take on a classic recipe, including the Ultimate Fried Chicken Sandwich, Mexican Street Corn, Red Velvet Cupcakes, Oven Baked Chicken Tenders with a Sweet and Spicy Tomato Jam, Turkey Meatballs with Zucchini Noodles, and Jalapeno Deviled Eggs. Dishes from the series will integrate either Hellmann’s Real Mayonnaise or Best Foods Real Mayonnaise, premium offerings from presenting sponsor Unilever. Links to the recipes will be made available in advance, so that fans can shop for all the ingredients they need before cooking along with the videos.

Beyond real-time cooking, additional episodes will feature an ever-expanding range of lifestyle topics and pro tips, including style, beauty, fashion, design, health and more.

“‘Homemade Unfiltered’ is going to be a fun, communal cooking experience,” said Ayesha. “No fancy edits. No pre-prepared dishes. This is REAL cooking as it happens, with mistakes and all, just as if you were really cooking with me in my kitchen.”

Believe Entertainment Group, in partnership with Dola Media and AC Brands, executive produce and physically produce the series, with Believe Entertainment Group responsible for bringing the project and its partners together.

“Social media has conditioned consumers to desire – and actually expect – direct, personal connections with their favorite public figures,” said Evan Fleischer, president, Believe Brand Studio at Believe Entertainment Group. “So, together with Ayesha, we developed a format that not only delivers on that desire, but takes it one step further: viewers feel like they’re actually there, at home with Ayesha, cooking right alongside her.”

“Homemade Unfiltered inspires people and families to make great things with their hands, hearts, and minds, without the pressure of being perfect. We are thrilled to help bring this format to our brand and media partners,” says Anthony Hemsey, Dola Media co-founder.

Ayesha will share the series on her social channels, a community of more than eight million followers across all platforms including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter.
