Curious Cat Bakery

Founder Natalia Lima started the Curious Cat Bakery out of necessity. After going vegan in 2011, she couldn’t find desserts she was truly excited about. Thinking that life was too short to eat dry and tasteless cake, she set out to develop her own recipes — which would harm no one while at the same time tasting absolutely delicious.

Everything on the menu is made to order and 100% free of dairy, eggs and animal products but you’d never know it from their taste. In fact, one of Natalia’s favorite things to do is watch the faces of people light up as she tells them that treat they are so excitedly devouring is vegan.

Also on her favorites list is teaching people how they too can easily veganize their favorite desserts in their own kitchens.

She's written 2 vegan baking cookbooks, led vegan baking classes, and been featured on national and local news including VegNews, NPR, and The Tampa Bay Times. 

She's also a self proclaimed cat lady, book nerd, Ravenclaw, and chocoholic and if she's not in the kitchen, you will probably find her either at the beach or in her happy place — Main Street USA at DisneyWorld.
