Bio

👩‍👧‍👦 As a mom of 4 children with multiple food allergies, I’ve been cooking allergen-free since 2004. Not wanting my kids or anyone else with food allergies to feel excluded at school, birthday parties, social events, etc., I created snacks that looked and tasted similar to what others were eating, but still safe, delicious and free of the food allergens they had to avoid. In 2015, I decided to start a business and share publicly what I had been making for my kids.

👩🏼‍🍳 I am the Founder, Owner & CEO of Safely Delicious, LLC, a minority woman-owned allergy-friendly food company, with WBE & WOSB Certifications. I lead production, sales, marketing & the overall strategic direction of the business.

🍫 At Safely Delicious, we manufacture, package and sell one-of-a-kind allergy friendly food products that are free of the Top 11 Food Allergens (wheat, dairy, peanut, tree nuts, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, sesame, mustard, sulfites), gluten free, vegan, nothing artificial and no preservatives.

🎉 Even though the ideal customer for Safely Delicious is anyone with food allergies, our products are DELICIOUS for EVERYONE to eat!
