  • The physicians and other guests loved the cupcakes and so many appreciated that they were GF and for those who didn’t need the GF they were surprised how delicious they were even though they were GF. Thank you for helping me look good to my leadership last week.….lol.

    Seriously though, THANK YOU for the delicious treats, they were the best!

Hi, I’m Nikki Thompson Frazier, author of A Life Worth Tasting, host of the YouTube show Sweet Life with Nikki, and a public speaker. I founded Sweet Encounter to create exceptionally delicious gluten-free, peanut- and tree-nut-free desserts that everyone can enjoy. What began in my kitchen for my daughters has grown into Cupcakes in a Jar shipped nationwide and experiences that bring people together. In our allergy-conscious, inclusive kitchen, we hire people of all abilities and lead with purpose: people first, excellence always, and community at the center. If you’re building a life worth tasting, I’m here to cheer you on: one jar, one story, one sweet encounter at a time.
