    Welcome!

    I'm Nicole, a writer, recipe developer, and cookbook author. I share carefully tested gluten-free baking recipes as well as the occasional vegetarian and vegan dish, all made with simple, wholesome ingredients. I believe in real food, lots of vegetables, and balance, too -- because I dearly love cake. Welcome! Learn more about me.


    The cover of the cookbook Flourless: Recipes for Naturally Gluten-Free Desserts by Nicole Spiridakis shows an opera cake.

    My cookbook, Flourless, was published by Chronicle Books and is full of naturally gluten-free desserts to tempt everyone! Learn more.
