Company Sends Baking When Your Period Is Due

This Company Will Send Baking Every Month Before You Get Your Period

Period-tracking apps are no new thing, but period-tracking apps that deliver freshly baked goods straight to your door in your time of need? Genius.

Moon Cycle Bakery is the new Kickstarter funded company which aims to ease your PMS with treat-filled care packages just before your period is due.

On their website, Moon Cycle Bakery say the company was founded with a simple mission: "to help individuals redefine their 'time of the month.'"

"We want your Moon Cycle treat to serve as a quiet reminder for you to celebrate the art of being a woman, rather than wish it away. Because at the end of the day, you deserve to rest, replenish, and recognise the moon dust that lives inside of your bones."

We're starting this Monday with a "meet the treat" feature because we know Mondays after the holidays ain't always the easiest and these babies make it all a little smoother. These no-bake oatmeal cookies (recipe created by the adorable and amazing @rachlmansfield) have a very ✨ special ingredient that we're super excited about. We've teamed up with @pearlbutter and packed these nuggets of gold with their ultra-amazing Glow Getter Butter!! Turmeric and Ashwagandha, two of the main ingredients in the Glow Getter, are huge supporters of keeping our bodies happy during our cycles. Turmeric is the MVP for battling inflammation and Ashwagandha, as all-star smartie @twist_of_lemons explains, is "most studied for stress reduction. One of the most common symptoms of PMS is increased reactivity to stress or anxiety and poor sleep, and the alkaloids in Ashwagandha may be what creates its sedative and hypotensive properties, reducing heart rate and also insomnia." So many smiley faces over here. 🤗 // SIDENOTE: WE WANT YOUR BRAINS! We promise this isn't some crazy zombie game 🧟‍♀️, although that sounds fun, but we've heard your requests and brilliant ideas and we're creating a little space on our website called "Mission Control" which will break down every ingredient used, how it helps support you and studies to back it up. If you haven't noticed already, weren't not about making claims - were about giving real support - and we're so excited to help bring this little science home to life. WHERE YOU COME IN: Are there any lingering questions about our ingredients, treats, studies etc that you've been wanting to know more about? Let us know and we'll do our best to answer them as well as add them to our Mission Control. #scienceisyummy

The treats are said to be both healthy and delicious and, through the app, there are options to customise your monthly order, track your period, skip a month (free of charge), and make one-time orders.

Currently, it looks like Moon Cycle Bakery only ships to the US, but here's hoping for global expansion in the near future.
