Opportunity


Proven product in the top category of the $8.8B billion gluten free market 

The global gluten-free food market is predicted to reach $18.67 billion by 2034 at a CAGR near 9.7%. The largest segment? Bakery products. 

Precisely the lane where Mightylicious already has shelf space. Their states are impressive:

  • Sold in 1,775 stores across 43 states

  • 24.4% online repeat rate

  • $34 average order value

  • Proprietary flour blend and baking method

  • Growing platform that spans cookies, flour blends, and baking mixes

Solution


Amazing cookies. For everyone.

At Mightlicious, we believe that our customer’s satisfaction is just as important as their health. Our handcrafted cookies are designed to both indulge and nourish the mind, body, and soul. Our mission is to create delicious, allergen-free treats that allow our customers to enjoy their favorite foods without sacrificing taste or texture.

The most common response we get when someone tries our cookies is, “wait, these are gluten-free?! They taste good!” which we take as the highest compliment. In fact, we didn’t just aim to make the best gluten-free cookie on the market, but simply the best cookie on the market. A cookie that everyone can enjoy. 

Life’s complicated—cookies shouldn’t be. 

Product


Delicious allergen-free treats sold in 1,775 American stores

Mightylicious makes cookies everyone can enjoy that happens to be gluten-free. Their proprietary gluten-free flour blend behaves and tastes like wheat flour, paired with baking methods refined over three years alongside certified food scientists.

Our Accomplishments

Their clean, recognizable ingredient list (real butter, cage-free eggs, pure cane sugar, maple syrup, sea salt, and Dutch cocoa) aligns with the healthier snack options many Americans crave.

What our customers are saying:

Variety


Non-GMO, hydrogenated oil-free cookies and baking mixes

Mightylicious’s core lineup features seven cookie flavors, with several vegan options among them. 

Every product carries a stack of credentials that broadens its appeal across dietary needs: gluten-free, non-GMO, kosher (KOF-K), preservative-free, hydrogenated-oil-free, made with cage-free eggs, and clean-label. 

Seven Delicious Flavors! 

All-purpose gluten-free flour blends—including a protein-forward and a vegan version—and baking mixes are recent additions to Mightylicious’s expanded product line. 

Traction


From 3 Whole Foods locations to 1,775 stores in 43 states

Mightylicious is now included in over 5,200 distribution points by 2026, sitting on the shelves of major chains including Kroger, HEB, Harris Teeter, ShopRite, Fred Meyer, HyVee, Giant, and many others. 

Cited as one of Amazon’s fastest-growing brands), they boast a 24.4% online repeat-customer rate. In 2025, they sold roughly 148,500 bags, with a three-year forecast of more than 2.3 million bags across all 50 states. 

Business Model


Plans to triple distribution locations in three years

Mightylicious’s omni-channel model uses direct-to-consumer and brick-and-mortar to reinforce one another: 

  • D2C targets and builds a niche audience

  • Retail expands the brand to the mainstream

  • Shelf presence drives more online demand

Retail delivers reach and credibility at lower margins while D2C, anchored by a healthy $34 average order value,delivers materially higher margins. The strategic thrust is to grow top-line volume and complete vertical integration of the supply chain, which the company expects to lower per-unit cost, optimize freight, and reduce production risk.

Projections

Gluten-free snack options have made a big impact in the American consumer market in recent years—and major corporations are paying attention. Both Siete’s line of gluten-free tortillas and wide range of gluten-free crackers were sold to food conglomerates last year.

Leadership


Female founder with nearly a decade of experience scaling this brand

Mightylicious is led by founder Carolyn K. Haeler, who left a finance career in 2017 to develop the recipes after her own celiac diagnosis, then bootstrapped the brand from an apartment kitchen into Whole Foods within months. Her advisory board includes former leaders from Google, Lyft, Condé Nast, IBM, and Clorox.

Competition


Filling the market gap

Mightylicious was created to fill a market gap: health-conscious cookies that are also delicious. We’re building our success on three fundamentals:

  • Quality—handcrafted from premium ingredients

  • Taste—painstakingly researched recipes that set a new standard

  • Brand—our story resonates with consumers who have dietary restrictions

The competitive landscape is fragmented with plenty of room for new, better products.  While several companies have invested in creating strong brands at several different price points, there is little differentiation between product taste, texture, and appearance.

Our closest competitors in the gluten free category are Tate’s Gluten-Free Cookies, Aleia’s Gluten-free, and Udi’s gluten free.

Vision and strategy


Targeting an exit of $150M+ and 10-15x ROI

We've positioned ourselves as a leading gluten free and better-4-you lifestyle brand across the country. Our goal is $40M–$50M revenue in 10 years, with a successful exit for $150M or more. Our company is projecting $2.2M in revenue next year and a $10.3M run rate over the next 36 months.

The first phase of our strategy is focused on the gluten-free and vegan cookie market; after this, we will expand into a lifestyle brand with products in multiple CPG categories.

Funding


Investing in branding, D2C, and scaling

This round of funding will be used to:

  • Support regional expansion into the north and southeast via Wakefern and Wegmans.
  • Expand D2C channel by investing in Amazon marketplace.
  • Support regional expansion across operations, sales, marketing and inventory/working capital.

  • On-board key executives and continue to expand our team.

FAQ

How do I earn a return?

How do I earn a return?

We are using Republic's SAFE security. Learn how this translates into a return on investment here.

What is a custodian and what is a custodial account?

What is a custodian and what is a custodial account?

A custodian is a qualified third-party entity that acts as a legal holder of securities. An investor will open a custodial account with the qualified custodian, which is used to hold investments, namely the securities in a company. A custodial account allows you to name a beneficiary and accept payments such as dividends distributions or cash payouts. Custodial accounts are not managed or held by Republic; instead, they are managed by the custodian who works with the issuer raising on the platform. The custodian of this offering is BitGo Trust Company.
Why use a custodial account?

Why use a custodial account?

Companies will utilize a custodian to ensure that all securities they offer in their campaign are in one place. This means if a liquidity event or any other material event in respect to the securities occurs, the company can look to the custodian to service the securities, rather than each individual investo

For investors, utilizing a custodian safeguards their investment, or security interest, with a qualified financial institution. Having a custodial account allows for easier transfers and creates additional layers of protection for your securities. For companies, it can increase efficiency by reducing their cap table management costs and creating a single-line item, making future funding rounds easier.

Will I have to set up a custodial account? What is the process?

Will I have to set up a custodial account? What is the process?

Yes, since the company is utilizing a custodian, all investors in the offering will be required to create a custodial account with BitGo Trust Company and enter into an omnibus nominee agreement.

The custodial account creation process is hosted in our investment checkout system, meaning you will commit your investment and establish your account with BitGo all at once. During investment checkout, you will be automatically prompted to review and sign certain custodial documents with BitGo. In addition, you may be asked to provide certain information to verify your identity. Once completed, you will receive an email confirming your investment commitment.

I’m being told my custody account is in manual review, what should I do?

I’m being told my custody account is in manual review, what should I do?

BitGo reviews accounts that require manual review on a daily basis. Please expect to receive confirmation of your account being opened or to hear further guidance from our team within 24-48 hours.
Does it cost me anything to open a custodial account with BitGo Trust Company?

Does it cost me anything to open a custodial account with BitGo Trust Company?

Right now, there are no costs for investors to open a custodial account.

Custodial accounts do sometimes have a low annual cost to maintain; however, such costs are covered for the investor in this offering at this time.

Why would a company use a custodian like BitGo?

Why would a company use a custodian like BitGo?

Companies will utilize a custodian to ensure that all securities they offer in their campaign are in one place. This means if a liquidity event or any other material event in respect to the securities occurs, the company can look to the custodian to service the securities, rather than each individual investor.
