Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us, Naomi. The best part of baking is the community it fosters and the people who enrich it. It’s our honor to know that King Arthur Baking’s ingredients and recipes bring people closer every day. We see the celebration of LGBTQ+ people — our family members, friends, and community members — as beyond political. They’ve had to face steep adversities in political arenas, yes, but to have the simple human right to love and express their authentic selves. As a baking company that’s made spreading joy and building community a central part of who we are, it’s important to us that people who’ve historically struggled to find safety and acceptance know that our kitchen is a place where they're valued and loved. Doing so contributes to a healthier, more accepting, and more rich community from which we all benefit.
