We dreamed up Origin to create better gluten-free products, but also as a place where celiacs could feel normal for awhile, even special! Our vision was to provide food that tasted better and had healthier ingredients than the current market had to offer. Instead of searching the frozen section of the supermarket for rice and starch-based breads, the celiac community could come to us for fresh baked bread without preservatives. We use a variety of over 20 gluten-free ingredients to replace wheat flour, and there are different combinations in each of our products. Our diverse range of breads will not taste similar because we don't just use a master blend of a few flours. Our cupcakes and pastries are delicious, and nobody will know they're gluten-free if you decide to share with friends or family. If they do find out, we hope to change some assumptions about gluten-free baking!

You might be surprised to find out that neither of us are celiac. We had been accustomed to catering to special diets, and the idea of creating better products for the celiac community was exciting! Most of all, we just love food and wanted to help celiacs love food too. Is it a lot of work? Yes. Sourcing a large range of safe ingredients isn't always easy. But it's worth it to know we're making you happy, and you never have to ask us "what's gluten-free?"
