Naming A Gluten Free Baked Goods Business

Hello,

Being fed up of having to pay through the nose for Gluten free ready made yummy baked things, I've decided to set up my own small business making affordable versions. Of course I have to start very small and local, due to having no money, but what I am most having trouble with is the name!

Is it important to have that the food is 'safe' or 'pure' in the name?

Such as:

Safe Bakes

Pure Bakes

Gluten free Flour Garden ;p

I also thought of:

Let You Eat Cake

Innocent Bakery

Bake Free/I Want to Bake free

Bake Care

Free Cake/Free Bakes

and last but not least; Baked With Loaf. ;p

Does anyone have a favourite? :)

Thanks,

Fenifur

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. :) Lemonade stand? :D

If you put the words " gluten free" in the name, when people googled, it would come up. Also, if someone drove by, they would call me & say " a gluten-free bakery opened by my office!".

Gluten Free Girl (boy?) Bakes

The Gluten Free Baker

I don't think "pure" or "safe" will do it. It's a bit like saying it's "organic" - doesn't mean much to a gluten free-er.

My locally gluten free bakeries are called "Totally Gluten Free Bakery" and in Reno, "Haven of Bread". You could try for something like Simply Gluten Free, The Gluten Free Loaf (and Other Goodies), or even Baked with Gluten Free 'Flowers'. I think of all your ideas I like Gluten Free Flour Garden. :)

I do to . . . because I'm thinking ahead to a logo with flowers in it or some sort of flower arrangement looking thing that uses baked goods instead of flowers . . . or something like that.

I know a name can help to initially attract people and is extremely important. There are two semi-local gluten free bakeries near me. One is "New Grains Gluten Free Bakery" and they sell bread and some baked goodies in many local grocery stores with only "New Grains" standing out on the labels. The other is "Eleanor's Bakeshop" which obviously gives no clue they are gluten free.

Maybe I'm weird but I don't put much faith in a company based on their name. While it may initially attract my attention it certainly won't make me a customer. I think with time you'll find that word of mouth about how awesome your goodies are is much better for you than a name that points out you are gluten free.

On an unrelated note, make sure to get a website and if it takes you all day every day for a few weeks, get to know some SEO unless you have someone who can do that for you. I find few things are as powerful as the almighty Google to help you get found.

The name that caught my attention was Gluten Free Flour Garden. If someone is looking for gluten free..most of the other names wouldn't catch their attention?

Without the mention of gluten free, I personally would just drive right on by rather than come in and possibly come in contact with unsafe airborn flours that could harm me. :o

I also like the fact that your bakery's name would come up in a Google search. :D

I also like gluten free flour garden. As someone who works in marketing, I can see a lot of potential in that. You could even branch out into gluten free cookie bouquets.

      I agree, it so often overlooked!

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      Maybe they can attribute certain skin conditions to either being susceptible to getting Celiac......or the other way around....but I have to ask if certain people are prone to Celiac because of genetics and some people aren't. It's kind of the same thing as what came first.....the chicken or the egg.?

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities. If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering...

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac...

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      Dizziness after eating green beans?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?
