About Us

Nice to meet you!
We’re Lauren and Leo, a health-conscious mom and a New-York-City trained chef who fell in love, built a family, and then built a business around one simple belief:
you shouldn’t have to choose between feeling good and indulging in something amazing.
When Lauren was juggling a demanding corporate career and two kids, she was constantly frustrated by the lack of convenient, healthy options that actually tasted good. Most meals were either packed with junk… or “healthy” but tasted like punishment. Leo, with his chef’s palate and passion for real food, felt the same way.
So we started Leo’s Clean Kitchen here in Sarasota, FL, bringing clean, whole-food meals to local families. No seed oils. No gluten. Just chef-crafted meals made with ingredients you can pronounce. Week after week, people kept telling us:
“These desserts are next-level.”
“I can’t believe this is healthy.”
“You need to sell these everywhere.”
They were right. So in 2025 we took the leap, rebranding as Lauren & Leo’s to share our food more widely. Today, we still deliver fresh, wholesome meals to our Sarasota community, while also preparing to bring our functional indulgence desserts into local retailers.
Our mission is simple:
- Nourish your body with whole, clean ingredients.
- Delight your taste buds with nostalgic flavors and bold indulgence.
- Fuel the life you want, with no compromises.
This is food that loves you back. Welcome to Lauren & Leo’s.
