Here's a bit about Carolyn:
Mightylicious gluten free cookies is the creation and passion of founder, Carolyn Haeler. A lifelong foodie, Carolyn’s love language has always been baking. In 2012, at the age of 31, she was diagnosed with celiac disease - a diagnosis that would change her life for better and for worse.
After 9 months of illness, she was finally able to heal her body from the inside out. Carolyn became passionate about functional ingredients, nutrition, and living a gluten-free lief. Of course, this came with challenges. She found that many gluten-free products on the market were uninspiring when it came to taste and texture. For someone who’s love language is baking, this broke her heart. She didn’t mourn for herself, she mourned for the thousands of children and adults who are diagnosed with celiac disease every year, who would never know what a delicious cookie, cake, muffin, etc. should taste like.
In 2017, Carolyn purchased a box of store-bought gluten free cookies which she opened on her way home from work. The cookies were so stale and bland that she threw them away immediately.
In that moment, Carolyn decided that she could and would do better. She left her lucrative job in finance at JP Morgan and spent 4 months baking 15 hours a day, until she had created the perfect gluten free cookie.
