Alecia Bakery NYC’s line of brownies, blondies, cookies, cakes, tarts, confections and much in demand naturally gluten free and plant based (vegan friendly) treat lines, are sought out by fans across the country not only for their quality, but also to support the company’s philanthropic endeavors. Struggling to make ends meet, Lin Randolph turned to her passion for edible creations to quell her anxieties. Bringing the treats she made every weekend to her co-workers put smiles on everyone’s faces. Stan Smulewitz, then Lin’s co-worker, took notice and suggested that she begin to sell her treats.

No matter how much the company grows, Lin refuses to lower her standards. She believes honesty, hard work and giving back to the community, are the cornerstones of all good businesses and strives to set an example by maintaining a high level of integrity in both her work practices and personal life.
