Description

Jules Shepard is a pioneer in the gluten-free world. As the founder of GF Jules, she’s sold over a million pounds of allergen-free flour and baking mixes while championing celiac advocacy long before “gluten-free” was a household term. She was instrumental in shaping the FDA’s gluten-free labeling laws and has spent years empowering home bakers and food businesses through her cookbooks, products, and recipes.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • Jules’ personal celiac journey and how it sparked her mission in gluten-free baking
  • The story behind GF Jules and how a rogue investor almost put her out of business
  • Lessons learned from advocacy work and her instrumental help in setting the FDA's gluten-free labeling standards
  • The struggles Jules faced in scaling and funding GF Jules
  • Jules’ favorite baking tips and recipes
  • The one gluten-free myth Jules wishes would go away!

Jules is a trailblazer in the gluten-free community and a true champion for gluten-free eaters everywhere. Tune in for an information-packed episode for anyone who loves a good business origin story.
