Our story

From a very young age, I have spent hours in the kitchen, working on myriads of recipes to satisfy my sweet tooth. As I grew older and busier, baking became a therapy of sorts, something to get me out of my head and get my creative juices flowing. I love the process of playing around with different ingredients, combining them until they blend together perfectly. One of the biggest joys in my life is bringing people together with food, and that is what Petit is all about.

A few years ago, a bad infection left me weakened, and I could no longer tolerate the sweets I had loved all my life. My habitual cookie and ice-cream binge days were behind me, or so I thought. For the first time in my life, I started thinking about how the ingredients I was using were affecting my body. I decided to start experimenting with alternatives, determined to work on recipes that would be delicious, on top of being intolerance-friendly.

I am very excited to bring you Petit, a place where (almost) anyone - regardless of food allergies or intolerances - will find something that will make their day sweeter!
