Hi, my name is Jamelia Cyr. As a Newfoundlander, sharing good food is a way to express love. Whether it's a special birthday treat or a Sunday dinner, food brings loved ones together. 

​

The name "Duckies" honours my late grandmother who affectionately called me "my ducky" and sparked my love for baking - spending countless years baking together. 
 
After my celiac diagnosis in 2017, I started to face daily hurdles of living with a condition that required a huge lifestyle change. Relearning the basics and discovering new ingredients one day at a time. 
 
Experiencing the lack of safe and enticing gluten-free options firsthand, I'm committed to creating better solutions for those facing similar challenges. Inspired by the motto "do what makes the heart happy,"  I quit my 9-5 day job and set out to create delicious, wholesome foods to share with family, friends and my community.
 
Duckies embodies years of learning and perfecting gluten-free baking techniques that are safe and actually taste good (even approved by my gluten loving friends). My primary mission is to make gluten-free living joyful, inclusive and stress-free. I hope people will enjoy my delightful treats and share memorable moments over my food without worry or exclusion.
​
My rotating menus are designed to offer comforting, homestyle classics that bring people together with food everyone can enjoy. By applying these principles, I know I can make a positive impact on people's lives — one delicious bite at a time.
​

Your duckie, ​
Jamelia Cyr
