Our Story

Lil Sweet Eats is a licensed home bakery offering delicious, vegan baked goods that are also free from peanuts and tree nuts (except coconut). Founded by Jenn, a passionate educator and student advocate with 17 years of experience promoting student equity and success, Lil Sweet Eats blends her love of baking with a mission to make safe, sweet treats accessible to everyone.

Jenn’s journey into baking began with her deep love of all things sweet and her desire to create treats her daughter, who has multiple food allergies (including a severe peanut allergy), could enjoy. When Jenn first learned of her daughter’s allergies, she worried about how they might impact her social experiences, especially during school celebrations and lunchtime. Like her mom, Jenn’s daughter loves sweets, but local bakeries offered few or no vegan and nut-free options. Determined to find a solution, Jenn began experimenting with vegan, nut-free cake, brownie, and cookie recipes so her daughter could enjoy the same sweet moments as her peers, safely—and in moderation, of course. This was the inspiration behind Lil Sweet Eats.

Today, Lil Sweet Eats is dedicated to crafting desserts that are not only delicious but also safe for those with the most common food allergies, including peanuts and tree nuts. With food allergies affecting many children, Jenn believes no child should miss out on the joy of birthday parties and holiday celebrations. By ordering from Lil Sweet Eats, you’re supporting an inclusive environment where every child can safely participate and enjoy the sweetness of life’s special moments. Let’s make memories that last a lifetime—together!
