Karen Pomerance and Louise Caplin want to Spice up your meal times with their award-winning food and drink range

London mums Karen Pomerance and Louise Caplin have a tasty new job.

The close friends have teamed up to be the sole distributors of a unique range of Israeli food and drink. The Israeli-based company is called Derech Hatavlinim but is being marketed in the UK - by Mrs Pomerance and Mrs Caplin - under Spice Way.

Two of Spice Way's products were recently awarded gold stars at the Great Taste Awards - credited as being the national benchmark for food awards. These were the drink Posh Pomelo & Melon in the Fruit Infusion range, and in the Fast Gourmet range, Classic Chinese - a mix of dried ingredients to be stirred into rice.

Mrs Pomerance (right), a mother-of-three, tells People: "We were on holiday in Israel when we saw the products. We brought home as much as we could to use on our families. We then realised that there was a gap in the market for something like this."
