Allergen Info

All products are made using 100% gluten-free ingredients. Baking takes place in a shared home kitchen where gluten and other allergens are present at other times. To minimise the risk of cross-contamination, I use separate baking trays, bowls, utensils, and equipment that are not used for gluten baking. All work surfaces and equipment are thoroughly cleaned before and after each bake, no other baking is taken place in my home other than using gluten free ingredients.

Customers with coeliac disease, food allergies, or severe sensitivities should consider this and contact me directly if they require further information before ordering.

  • If you have a intolerance/allergy outside of the main 14 allergens, please contact me to talk about what i use in my bakes!

  • Your treats will be baked fresh, and dispatched the same day with Evri Next Day. If there is any delays this is completely out of my control however the cookies are individually wrapped to help them stay as fresh as possible and can be eaten within 5 days.

  • Collection will be on the chosen date on the shop page and will be between 5-7pm.

About Mimi Bakes

I’ve been gluten free for over 7 years. For a long time, I thought I was simply intolerant to gluten, so I followed a strict gluten-free diet and became very used to having to think twice about what I could and couldn’t eat.

Over time, I realised it was a little more complicated than that. I was eventually diagnosed with severe IBS, and gluten and dairy are two of the triggers I’ve found my body can struggle with, alongside the impact that my mental health can have on my gut. I’m still figuring out exactly what my body can tolerate, but I’m in a much better place now and have learnt just how individual food can be for everyone.

That experience is a huge part of why I started Mimi Bakes.

I know how disheartening it can be when food starts to feel restrictive. When you're at a bakery or looking through a dessert menu and there’s little, or sometimes nothing, that you can actually enjoy. Food is such a big part of everyday life — it’s how we celebrate, socialise, treat ourselves and make memories — and I don’t think having an allergy or intolerance should mean missing out on that excitement.

I started baking my own treats because I wanted gluten-free food that I genuinely looked forward to eating. After years of testing, tweaking and perfecting my recipes, Mimi Bakes was born.

Mimi Bakes is all about creating gluten-free treats that don't feel like a compromise. From chunky cookies to cakes and traybakes, everything is made from scratch in small batches, with vegan and dairy-free options too.

Because everyone deserves to have something on the dessert table that they’re genuinely excited to eat. 🤎
