Atlanta’s Tassili Wonderful Wizards of Raw Winner-IAMOH Herbals
The theme of this year’s raw food competition at the Wonderful Wizards of Raw, a lively three-day festival celebrating raw food, was “aphrodisiacs,” and the winners were: Larese Dockery of IAMOH Herbals in first place; Chanda Lee of Embrace Raw Living in second; and Satice of Mela9ated Magic in third.
The festival was held the first weekend in June in the backyard of Tassili’s Raw Reality Café in Atlanta’s historic West End.
“Our annual event is an opportunity to encourage raw food chefs to experience friendly competition and to be creative, knowledgeable, and to think outside the box,” says Tassili Ma’at, founder and owner of the café.

Dockery's offering was a chocolate–raspberry sea moss jelly she calls IAMOH Herb-Infused Wild Sea Moss Gel. “It was so good it just tasted sexy!” said Ma’at, who served as one of the competition’s five judges. “And all the sensual ingredients in there to activate and sustain arousal were combined in such a healthy way that it got unanimous agreement by the judges.”
Lee’s offering was pizza. Says Ma’at: “The second-place contestant would have been first if the competition was just based on the food. The pizza was so delicious, you could really taste the love put into it.”
Satice’s was a dessert concoction. “The cinnamon and nuts together blended well for a very sensual eating experience,” says Ma’at. “And then she topped it with the cacao and other goodies that topped off the aphrodisiac component.”
