Frequently Asked Questions

Is Everything Gluten-Free?

   A resounding, Yes!

Is Everything Plant-Based (Vegan)?

   Again. Absolutely, Yes. And I do want to share that it comes from a place of accessibility for those with dietary needs. Pretty much all folks can indulge in thoughtful plant based pastries. It is not out of a notion that there is dietary superiority of plant based diet.

Do you ship?

Yes! I ship my chocolate hazelnut donuts. Follow this link to order!

Do you deliver?

I am happy to coordinate a meeting location. I currently bake from home in Afton.

Do you have a shop?

No. I closed my brick-and-mortar in December 2020 to slow down and more intentionally craft the life I want to be living.

I am allergic to nuts, is your bakery nut free?

   We are Peanut Free, but I do use nuts and is not safe if you are worried about cross contamination.

What kind of sweetener do you use?

   I use coconut sugar to sweeten most pastries. Maple syrup and dates are also used to sweeten.  I DO NOT use cane sugar.

A lot of Gluten-Free baking uses gums and starchy flour, do you use gums?

   No.  I steer clear from Guar Gum, Xantham Gum, and any other such gums.  I stick to whole grains and seeds that I soak, sprout, and mill in house. I use grain-free organic cassava flour, which is a minimally processed flour, as well as almond flour.

What does it mean to be a 'Mindful Bakery'?

   Moon Maiden's Delights is the fruit of the contemplative practice of Owner/Baker Sidney Hall.  MMD's is a way that meditation and yoga theory and philosophy come to express themselves as act and offerings to a community.  The act of baking at MMD is a craft completed with attention, intention, and absorption.
