I started Mariella’s because I really believe cakes don’t have to be naughty. Our range of Pearls, brownies, doughnuts and cookies are full of all kinds of healthy ingredients but taste like all kinds of scrumptiousness. With fewer calories and plastic-free packaging, they’re naturally good, so just relax, sit back and enjoy our little sweet treats. ~ Mariella

Dream big, work hard

Where it began

Born and raised in West London, Mariella Heyn began baking aged 13 as a form of therapy and was keen to have her own business one day. Ten years later, Mariella started her bakery from her mother's kitchen in 2012, an idea fuelled by her desire to eat cake every day whilst still fitting into her jeans, with a keen interest in the science behind baking. With just £2,000 worth of savings, Mariella launched Mariella's selling her bakes door to door, with a growing sales team, gaining valuable customer feedback and showcasing the brand at exhibitions including The Good Food Show and Ideal Home Show.

Some pretty big deals

Mariella's moved into its first dedicated, small but mighty, production kitchen in 2014 in West London. In April 2014, Whole Foods Market stores nationwide began stocking our products as one of their top selling bakery lines. During this exciting time we had the pleasure of making bespoke cakes for a range of high-end clients including Little Mix, Sotheby's Auction House and Yasmin Le Bon. Mariella developed recipes for Women’s Health Magazine and her story was documented by Facebook in their series ‘She Means Business’ as well as The Daily Mail and BBC Radio.

Experiment and grow

With a growing social media following and loyal online customer base, in 2018 Mariella's production relocated for the third time to its current premises in West London. Developing doughnuts, vegan bakes, made without gluten and made without dairy ranges, our core menu has expanded to 20 signature products. Offering classic flavours with a twist to provide an indulgent taste but as a lighter and healthier version. We swap high fat cream cheese for quark and chocolate ganache frosting for tofu as well as reduce the overuse of refined sugar in our bakes.
