Nicole Centeno

Nicole Centeno founded Splendid Spoon in 2013 with a clear conviction: eating well shouldn’t require trading your time or sanity to do it. What started as a soup operation out of a Brooklyn pizza kitchen is now one of the leading plant-forward platforms in the U.S., delivering ready-to-eat, clean-ingredient smoothies, soups, grain bowls, and noodle bowls nationwide, through two brands SplendidSpoon.com and MosaicFoods.com.Nicole is a French Culinary Institute-trained chef, a former research biologist published in Nutrition and Metabolism, and the author of Soup Cleanse Cookbook (Rodale) — a combination that shapes how Splendid Spoon approaches product development and brand storytelling. She’s been named one of Observer’s 10 Wellness Entrepreneurs to Watch.
