The Story Behind The Bite

With over 19 years of experience in the baking industry, I've journeyed from humble beginnings to becoming a skilled cake decorator, mastering every role within a bakery. However, my path took an unexpected turn when I was diagnosed with celiac disease, making it challenging to continue working amidst ingredients harmful to my health. Despite voicing concerns about gluten intolerance, I felt unheard, bouncing from doctor to doctor with my symptoms dismissed as mere "nervous stomach issues." Faced with adversity, I contemplated abandoning my dream of owning a bakery, even entertaining the idea of pursuing medical school. Yet, my passion for baking proved unwavering, leading me to launch my own venture from home in 2018. Initially serving the community through farmers' markets, I soon recognized a pressing need for allergy-friendly goods. What began as selling from my front porch evolved into fulfilling specialty orders, culminating in the opportunity to establish an official storefront for OTWP. After months of renovation, we proudly opened our doors in June 2024, offering a haven for those seeking delicious treats without compromising their dietary needs.

 

Pure Peace Of Mind. No Compromises.

From Our Kitchen to Your Table

At OTWP, we prioritize the safety and well-being of our customers with utmost diligence. Our commitment to eliminating the risk of allergen exposure begins with extensive research and scrutiny of each ingredient we use. We understand the complexity of food allergies and the importance of identifying all potential sources of gluten and other allergens. With over 60 different names for gluten in food and dairy products, we leave no stone unturned in our quest for ingredient transparency and safety. Every product in our bakery undergoes a meticulous screening process to ensure it meets our stringent standards for allergen control. We source certified gluten-free ingredients whenever possible, partnering with trusted suppliers to guarantee quality and safety. Moreover, our bakery operates in a dedicated gluten-free facility, eliminating any possibility of cross-contamination. From the moment ingredients enter our kitchen to the final product leaving our shelves, we uphold the highest standards to ensure each item is celiac-safe and free from allergen risks. At our bakery, you can indulge in our delicious treats with confidence, knowing that your health and dietary needs are our top priority.
