Chef Suzette's Awards
About Us...
The Vegan Cabana is the creation of Chef Suzette and her mother, an award-winning baker. We feature exotic tropic flavors of the islands, to transport you to a breezy beach cabana with every bite!
When Mom was diagnosed with severe food allergies of wheat and dairy, the pair set out to create fabulous gluten-free, dairy-free recipes.
It is incredibly difficult to get gluten-free, dairy-free batter to rise properly without using Xanthan or eggs, but Suzette and her mom perfected it, during the pandemic. From their tiny kitchen during Covid, they baked all-day, every-day, testing recipes until they got them perfectly delicious!
Suzette has been called a “food scientist“ because she created her own proprietary recipes with a precise, scientific formula to balance acids in the organic ingredients without using eggs or milk. Try our fabulous plant-based allergy-friendly treats, and you will be hooked! Originally called “Vegan Suzette’s Gourmet Bakery,” they formed the Vegan Cabana division of Vegan Suzette LLC to highlight the tropic flavors found in their bakery. Our fabulous vegan desserts were even selected to be served at the official Superbowl Dinner!
Chef Suzette had a prolific career as one of the top Food Journalists in the country (see highlights of her articles featured in our “Press” section). With her recipes and articles published in many prestigious magazines, her real break came when she won the award for "Best Salsa in Arizona," and her vegan salsa was served on the menu at over 14 restaurants in Arizona and Las Vegas.
We are dedicated to making sure all the bakery on the menu at the Vegan Cabana is not only delicious, but wholesome for your family - with no artificial colors, preservatives or flavorings. Suzette's food philosophy is that "Everything going into your body should taste good and be good for you!" As a pioneer in the "mindful food movement," Suzette believes in "no empty calories," so the Vegan Cabana treats are prepared to be as low in calories with nutritional benefits. Proudly serving many happy fans over years in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
