Biographical Note:
Laurel Gallucci has baked delicious treats since she could turn on the oven. After she was diagnosed with an aggressive autoimmune disorder and her doctor put her on a strict diet, she started creating recipes of her own. Excited by the encouragement of friends and family, she turned her test kitchen into Sweet Laurel Bakery.

Claire Thomas is the cofounder, creative director, and photographer of Sweet Laurel. Claire and Laurel's shared love of old-fashioned cooking, Los Angeles history, and blush-colored roses has led to a business founded in friendship. She is also the cook, writer, and photographer behind The Kitchy Kitchen.

"This book is answered prayers. I don't regularly eat grains and while my energy has radically improved since this shift, I have truly missed baking at home. Laurel is a genius. I trust her implicitly in the kitchen and even trusted her with my wedding cake! This is a powerful and delicious way to change your life." --Amanda Bacon, Moon Juice

"Laurel and I first met over the love of coconut, and since then I have been endlessly inspired by her creations. Even for the most skilled chef or baker, gluten-free baking is intimidating- with long lists of ingredients and flours; one recipe can feel like a science project. Laurel truly has a gift. She has simplified 'clean' baking in a way that produces a product that is exquisitely refined, delicious, and beautiful! I am seriously so excited about this book--she'll make a better baker out of all of us! --Meredith Baird, Nucifera, author of Coconut Kitchen

"Laurel has redefined the art of home baking. Her desserts are a staple in my home, both for their healthy nature and the creativity she infuses in every treat. Choosing nutritious, wholesome ingredients for myself and my children is important, and Laurel's baking has allowed us to sub out the unhealthy sweets for desserts that are even more delicious and beautiful than the sugar-heavy goods. Her Chocolate Caramel Cake is our ultimate favorite. Sometimes I even eat leftovers for breakfast! It's safe to say Laurel's baking has changed my life in all the best ways." --Jenni Kayne, designer

"For ... sumptuous whole ingredient, grain-free sweet treats, this collection is a well-conceived, enticing primer." -- Publishers Weekly
