Hey, I'm Carys, aka The Cookie Lass
As a gluten free person myself, I know the importance of having delicious treats made with my needs in mind, and I’m bringing that experience to you so we can share those little moments of joy together.

I have baked with my Mum since I was young and I loved every part of the process; weighing out each ingredient, icing cakes, and choosing the perfect topping. The ABBA Gold album was always in the background as we chatted away. My siblings and I were always spoiled with such impressive birthday cakes Mum used to make for each of us. She really shaped my love for baking, experimenting with flavours, and the utter joy of process and familiarity in the classic bakes.
When I became gluten-free over a decade ago, I was inspired to experiment and alter the recipes Mum and I used to the ones I bake with today. It is so important to me that they are full of the perfect textures and flavours, that they keep really well, and are as great as all the bakes we used to make.

The idea of The Cookie Lass business came to me in originally in 2021, and after a few tests I’m so excited to share that 2024 is the year of The Cookie Lass! What’s more wonderful to share is that I am beginning my journey in Pembrokeshire, my home. Whether it’s the hikes along the coastal path, my toes in the sand on the beach, or the memories of my childhood baking, this place fills me with joy and calm which is what I want all my customers to feel when they’re enjoying one of my bakes. Being here inspires me to be creative with all the styles and flavour combinations I can develop.

With the help of some wonderful friends and family, I built a dedicated gluten-free kitchen that means you do not have to worry about any cross contamination, something that I was so conscious of myself when I began this journey. You only need to look forward to your treats arriving!
Thank you for being on this journey with me, I am so grateful, and I can’t wait to share my creations with you.
Always Gluten Free. Always Vegan. Always Delicious.
