Allyson Moore started Chubby Bunny Bakery in 2012 after her own food-allergy journey inspired her to create treats she could safely enjoy. The Hamilton bakery grew from five years of wholesale production in Moore’s home kitchen into a local storefront, making certified vegan baked goods for people navigating food allergies and intolerances.

Everybody Eats, IncEverybody Eats began in Brooklyn in 2004 when lifelong celiac Pedro Arroba started baking with $600 after failing to find bread he wanted to eat. Two decades later, his personal approach still defines the bakery, which makes handmade gluten-free food for people managing celiac disease and other allergies. Its dedicated facility supports that mission while Arroba continues developing breads and treats with familiar flavor and texture.BROOKLYN, NY
