About Foodgasm

Featuring saucy chef Ashley Simone, Foodgasm is a sensual web cooking series that is a little bit naughty, a little bit nice, and has a feel of the 1940s. This web cooking show pays attention to special diets (pescetarian, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free),  but food is prepared in a way that is tasty and appealing to all people. Foodgasm also emphasizes the sensuality of food. “Food is love.”

About Ashley Simone
Foodgasm Producer, Host

Ashley in her chef's hatAshley Simone straddles both sides of the camera as producer and talent. At age four, she fell in love with dance and being seen on the stage. She was trained in dance at the Academy of Movement and Music (in Oak Park, IL) and then went to study at Marymount Manhattan College and Columbia College Chicago.  

At 21, she ran off and joined the circus and toured as a dancer with Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey. She has performed on stage and on-camera a variety of roles, many of which included dancing.  She has also produced three shorts films and a feature-length documentary.

When she is not performing or producing, she’s probably cooking up a storm. Since childhood, she’s had a passion for food, always experimenting and trying new dishes on loved ones. She recently finished her degree in culinary arts at the Illinois Institute of Art-Chicago, writes a cooking blog and is working on her first cookbook. Foodgasm is her first cooking show.
