Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the order and pickup process?

A: We are not accepting new orders at this time.

Q: What’s the difference between “allergen-free” and “allergy-friendly,” and which do you offer?

A: Allergen-free means the food is produced in a facility that never handles the specified allergen and, if required by law, has undergone inspections. Allergy-friendly means the food was produced in a facility where allergens may be handled, but strict procedures are in place to minimize cross-contact.

We offer allergy-friendly options. We carefully screen the ingredients used for our allergy-friendly products and follow strict procedures to reduce cross-contact.

We cannot guarantee the complete absence of any allergen. Our products are not recommended for individuals with severe allergies and are consumed at the customer’s own risk.

Q: What are your allergy-friendly and food safety practices?

A: We operate as a Cottage Food Operation in accordance with Florida state law and comply with all required and recommended food-handling practices. Our allergy-friendly practices follow FoodAllergy.org guidelines, which includes never preparing allergy-friendly and non-allergy-friendly products at the same time and the use of dedicated equipment (e.g. mixing bowls, utensils and pans) where possible. The only shared equipment is our ovens and dishwasher, as allowed by those standards.

Q: Do you take custom or off-menu requests?

A: Yes! We consider custom orders based on ingredient availability and lead time. Prepayment may be required. Custom items may not be eligible for refund or replacement.

Q: What if there’s a problem with my order?

A: If something isn’t right, please let us know — we want to make it right.
