Omowunmi A. ★★★★★ : I gave a 5 star and I am proud to say I have been a client for a few years now . I loved the quality so apart from buying for just myself I buy them as gifts for people and any one I give keeps asking where I got them from. The items are always the best quality, they are stylish and unique. The delivery and service is also awesome..keep taking the nigerian culture to the world
Tina O. ★★★★★ : Purchased a few dresses and hand bags as gifts during my trip to Nigeria from this shop. The owner was very friendly and the quality of her products 10/10. Will definitely be coming back.

Kawonise O. ★★★★★ : I thought it will be good for only moi-moi & akara until I tried it for Gbegiri (beans soup). With Shecares beans flour, our Amala & ewedu just got more delicious. Thanks for taking the stress of peeling beans away.
Tolulope O. ★★★★★ : Absolutely enjoyable beans flour. I started buying from Shecares last year, and for the first time my family has been taking moimoi and akara more consistently. I absolutely recommend it for busy executives who want to provide quality meals for their children; and really for anyone who finds peeling beans a chore!

Jess E ★★★★★ : Since when did akara and pap become afternoon food? Order if you’re not hungry and you don’t mind receiving your order hours later, otherwise it’s not worth it. The customer service is rubbish too.
Christabel R. ★★★★★ : I ordered food on Saturday morning and the food never got to me up till date. My first time experience and it’s the absolute worst I’ve ever experienced with any vendor. He kept lying that the food had been dispatched meanwhile I didn’t even send my address in the first place. Prior to ordering, I made sure to ask, “hope it won’t take time”, and he said it won’t, as at 3hrs after, he was still giving flimsy excuses until he couldn’t keep up with the lies, and decided to stop picking my calls and responding to my messages. Then, I asked for a refund and up till now I haven’t been refunded. Nobody should ever patronize. He’s just a liar and a thief
