Our Story
About Leah
My name is Leah and I am the founder of Norah's Brownies. It's named after Norah because I was on maternity leave with her when I started the business.
I live in Hackney with my husband and two daughters, Lola and Norah. My background is in fashion and visual merchandising before i became a teacher. I spent 6 years teaching textiles, graphic design & Business in secondary schools. I then became the head of Food which reignited my passion for food.
While on maternity with Norah I started up a business that incorporated the skills I had learnt and here we are
I have an utter addiction to baked goods especially chocolate. I am also a type 1 diabetic and always felt guilty about how much I indulged...
I experimented with a variety of ingredients, ratios and timings and have found what I think to be the perfect brownie.
All the brownies are hand made, gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar free, with exciting flavours and toppings to give the brownie its signature look and taste.
Norah's Brownies
What makes our baked goods different to all the other bakeries out there?
We use organic unrefined coconut sugar in all our products . We also make our own coconut milk using organic coconut milk powder. Everything we do is gluten free using Doves Free From flour and all colouring's are natural using beetroot, matcha and turmeric .
Our Brownies will not taste like your ordinary brownie, this is because we do not use white sugar or butter . However with TWO Great Taste Awards we are confident that they taste just as good if not better.
Vegan Options
Vegan Brownies naturally free form gluten dairy and refined sugar. With exciting flavours and toppings to give the brownie its signature look and taste.
