Few things are more heartbreaking than having a child who can’t eat cake at a friend’s birthday party. That’s what happened to Jereann Zann when her daughter Sophia wasn’t allowed to eat any of the goodies due to having celiac disease, an autoimmune condition where the body can’t absorb gluten. Sophia was also allergic to dairy.
Zann decided to do something about it and founded Little GF Chefs to help kids on restricted diets enjoy deserts. Little GF Chefs is a monthly baking subscription service where all the recipes are gluten-free and also free of eight allergens — dairy, fish, egg, crustacean, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat and soy.
The result is a healthy fun time. Each kit contains all the dry ingredients for baking and decorating as well as a detailed recipe card listing every ingredient. The kits have a wide variety of offerings — everything from cinnamon knots, animal crackers, rainbow donuts and watercolor cookie kits. You can also get refills for the mixes, including biscuit, vanilla cake mix, pizza mix and soft pretzel bites. Kits can be purchased separately or through three-month, six-month or 12-month subscriptions. Starts at $45.
