President/CEO

Cucina Aurora was founded in New York by owner and CEO, Dawn Aurora Hunt. Having a long-standing love for cooking, a passion for good food, and joy for gathering friends around the dinner table, Dawn “the Kitchen Witch” started Cucina Aurora in 2008. Her purpose is to bring families and friends together around simple, naturally delicious, and good for you foods. Cucina Aurora’s products are centered on home, family, and the nurturing of those things.

With the simple understanding that Love and good intentions are the most important ingredients in any meal, Dawn speaks at events all along the East Coast and teaches people that good, healthy, and even Gluten Free food can be easy to make and wonderful to eat. Using 100% virgin olive oil imported from Italy for the Herb Infused Oils, only the finest natural and organic herbs for the dip mixes, and wholesome ingredients like organic evaporated cane juice in all the cookie mixes, Cucina Aurora has become synonymous with outstanding quality and scrumptious foods.

Dawn’s latest book, A Kitchen Witch’s Guide to Love and Romance, is now available from Simon & Schuster! She is also the author of Tastes of the Temple, released in December 2011 from Copper Cauldron Publishing. Dawn can be found frequently on WMUR-TV’s Cook’s Corner segment, on her YouTube channel, and in her kitchen, practicing her own unique, magical brand of Kitchen Witchery.

I just received the Winter Brew coffee and Rosemary olive oil and love them so much! I think the winter brew just might be my new favorite coffee. I can’t wait to try the other seasons!

I genuinely love every product this company makes. I’ve been blessed with meeting members of the team in person and got nothing but good vibes and have been lucky to find local establishments in which to purchase their oils and coffee. You can’t go wrong with buying food items from a kitchen witch!

I was fortunate to stop at the Kitchen Witchery booth at Mohegan Sun New England Christmas Festival. I purchased the Magical Marinara and that is what it is “magical” I cooked my meatballs in the sauce. The flavor was delicious with the garlic infused olive oil and a slight kick of red pepper we thoroughly enjoyed it! I will definitely be purchasing it again and will be trying the infused olive oils!

The best infused olive oils anywhere! I keep my kitchen stocked and have given them as housewarming and even engagement gifts. Delicious, top quality product and exceptional customer service. I’m a long time customer and they have earned their 5 stars!

I have purchased many products from Cucina Aurora Kitchen Witchery over the years. Dip mix, risotto, cookbooks and of course oils! What keeps me coming back is the fact that everything is just plain good. I love to cook and the oils in particular make it simple to add a delicious burst of flavor. I tell everyone about these products and will keep spreading the word!

The risotto packages are great! Easy to make, with few additional ingredients. Makes two hearty portions. Fast delivery. I’ve ordered from this place before and I’ll order again.

Delicious!!! Cucina Aurora oils are the best tasting oils out there!  Every time, I use them with guests, they always ask about flavors. I continued to try different brands of flavored oils over the past 9 years, but none of them compare to Cucina Aurora.  They are fantastic on vegetables, breads, and salads.  You can really taste a smooth flavor of each flavor.  I highly recommend you try any of the oils!  You won’t be disappointed

I have a huge food allergy and have to avoid many things. The olive oil I buy from Cucina Aurora is delicious! I know exactly what is in it, I cook with it, and use it on salads. What a twist to add to a salad and it is amazing on shrimp! Thank you Dawn for adding yummy flavor to my very limited menu!
