Our Story
Seeking alternatives to conventional medicine, Mimi began an educational journey in 2014 which led to a health focused diet that was gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, soy-free and refined sugar-free. This nutritional ethos planted the seed for a new small business.
Naturally talented in the kitchen from a young age and with a passion for baking, Mimi achieved her foodie dream to be the founder of The Mimistry in 2016. At a market stall in southern Sydney, she quickly established a loyal following amongst customers who still valued gourmet baked treats while avoiding allergens, processed ingredients and refined sugars.
Adored by lovers of sweet treats and the health-conscious alike, The Mimistry soon expanded into a professional kitchen, supplying health-food stores and select cafes across Sydney. Delicious, guilt free delicacies include a range of cakes, tarts, mini-cakes, cookies and other healthy treats.
Please peruse our menu and read about our premium ingredients or contact us with any queries. The Mimistry is your home of rustic baked goods and real food, handmade with love.

"The Mimistry will change your view on what a good cake should taste like. Mim doesn't just create cakes and sweets to fit a healthy diet (all her food is made without refined sugar or gluten) she creates food that tastes amazing, focusing on flavour and texture in ways you don't expect from sugar, gluten and often dairy-free cakes. Also her design and presentation are on point, so if you're looking to gift a cake or treat you (and the recipient) will not be disappointed. Cannot recommend her enough!" by Sam W
"I love the Mimistry! My go-to for real food, gluten-free, dairy-free, refined-sugar free, paleo baked goods anywhere! The salted chocolate tarts are a winner in my books. So are the lamingtons, donuts, and pretty much everything really! (yes I have tried almost all Manuela's offerings) :) Anyone looking after their health or with food sensitivities, and still likes a sweet treat or two, do yourself a favour and check her out. Highly recommended!" by Lucy L
