About us

Hi, I’m Em!

The baker behind Gluten Free Gems By Em. What started as a childhood passion quickly became my creative outlet, my stress reliever, and eventually… my side hustle and a micro baking dream.

During grad school, I studied Occupational Therapy, and I actually found myself wanting to use baking in all of my interventions. It brought so many benefits, whether for motor skills, cognitive function, or simple enjoyment, no matter what my patients were facing, across the entire life span!

In addition, I was tired of gluten-free treats that tasted like crumbs. I believe everyone deserves something incredibly yummy, no matter your dietary needs.

Every batch I make is handmade, gluten-free, and crafted with ingredients I trust (and taste-test more times than I should). Whether you’re fully gluten-free or just love a good baked good — welcome!
