Mariposa has a passion for: the baked goods they make, the creative journey they're on, and the communities they serve.
Mariposa Baking Co.'s start was simple. Patti Furey Crane, Mariposa's founder, craved high-quality sweets while pregnant with her first child. Finding few options at the time, she set to baking them herself. And so, in 2004, Mariposa was hatched. Mariposa's mission – create wholesome, hand-crafted food using the finest natural ingredients. Mariposa’s first few years were spent in a shared kitchen in West Berkeley, California. Their batches grew too big for those ovens, so in 2006 we built a new place to rest our wings — a dedicated gluten-free kitchen in the Temescal neighborhood of Oakland, California. In 2009, we fluttered to a second home: a Kiosk in San Francisco's Ferry Building. Mariposa’s presence in this food purveyors’ paradise enabled us to bring daily bread and hand-crafted treats to San Francisco’s gluten-free community. Mariposa has a passion for: the baked goods they make, the creative journey they're on, and the communities they serve.

"Mariposa is the Bay Area’s go-to source for all things gluten-free, both savory and sweet....Mariposa has found a way to make pretty much all of the greatest gluten-rich hits safe for celiacs, from bagels with cream cheese to quiches, focaccia, pretzels, even turkey sandwiches on gluten-free “rye.” Brownies, biscotti, pie, cakes, cookies, muffins and doughnuts are all available for dessert." — Food and Wine Magazine
