About Us
Welcome to Gifted Breads
At Gifted Breads, we believe that everyone deserves to enjoy the simple pleasure of breaking bread, regardless of dietary restrictions. We are a Chicago-based, women- and minority-owned bakery on a mission to make your life simpler, so you don’t have to bake fresh bread every day. With Gifted Breads, you can freeze our loaves and pop them straight from the freezer to the oven—they’re ready in less than 10 minutes, tasting and smelling just like they came from a traditional bakery. Delicious, convenient, and perfect for every meal.
Our passion is crafting delicious gluten-free bread that tastes just like regular bread— minus the gluten. We’re dedicated to bringing the joy of shared meals back to those who thought bread was off the table.
Welcome to the Gifted Breads family—where everyone can enjoy the joy of breaking bread.
How It Started
Gifted Breads is a women- and minority-owned artisan bakery, and our journey is deeply personal. I’m Tathy, the founder of Gifted Breads. I started this business out of frustration after being diagnosed with celiac disease over 15 years ago. As someone who loves bread, I was constantly disappointed by gluten-free options that tasted more like cardboard than real bread. While the gluten-free market improved in many areas, bread remained an exception—especially one that could be enjoyed by everyone, not just those with dietary restrictions.
Gifted Breads is more than just a bakery—it’s a mission to bring people together through food, regardless of dietary needs. I know how isolating it can be when you’re the only one at the table with dietary restrictions, and I wanted to change that experience for others at home and in restaurants. I left my career as a lawyer and poured my heart into creating something better—real bread for people like me. No seed oils, no artificial preservatives—just simple, clean ingredients. I wanted to create something that my kids and I could enjoy every day. And we did it. We’re consistently working on new breads and allergen-friendly options to ensure everyone gets a seat at the table.
Our Promise
At Gifted Breads, our promise is simple: our bread will taste, smell, and feel like regular bread—minus the gluten. We use only the finest ingredients, free from unnecessary additives, preservatives, and allergens*. Even gluten-eaters will be impressed. Our products are crafted with care, shipped fresh, and we recommend freezing them to preserve their flavor. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply warm them up in the oven, and every bite will taste like it’s fresh out of a traditional bakery.

Our Community Matters
We believe in giving back to our community. We are proud to announce our partnership with the North Lawndale Employment Network (NLEN), an organization committed to empowering residents in underprivileged areas of Chicago.
Additionally, we support GIG Cares, a group dedicated to helping those in the gluten-free community who struggle with food insecurity. Understanding that gluten-free diets can be up to 183% more expensive, we donate products to these causes, ensuring access to high-quality gluten-free food for all.
