Cravings
Dedicated Gluten-Free Bakery

About Cravings
Cravings was created by Charlotte after her own diagnosis with celiac disease. Before starting the business, Charlotte loved experimenting with baking and creating healthier snacks, including recipes developed during her fitness competition journey.
After learning she was celiac, she combined that passion with her need for gluten-free food and created Cravings — a bakery focused on wholesome, naturally inspired baked goods that are also celiac-friendly.
Charlotte takes an all-natural approach to baking, using ingredients such as agave, coconut sugar, and applesauce, along with natural ingredients like carrot powder and beetroot for decorating and coloring. Her goal is to create baked goods that taste delicious while making customers feel good about what they're eating.
Charlotte is also dairy-free, and approximately 90% of Cravings' items are vegan.

Her goal is simple: to create a warm and inviting atmosphere where customers can feel comfortable and confident enjoying their food.
