Welcome to The OTHER Side of Mindful BakeHouse
The side for the do-it-yourselfers, the adventurous bakers, and those that live a little to far away to make it to our bakery in person. This is where I post all the fun gluten-free dairy-free things I've been testing/making that aren't official BakeHouse recipes. Most of which we also share on our YouTube Channel, as well as our second instagram account, & TikTok.
