Our Mission

We're committed to empowering mothers to breastfeed and break down the barriers that limit their ability to do so.

Milk and Bloom is made for the season nobody quite prepares you for, the one measured in feeds and wake ups rather than hours.

Every cookie and brownie we make is baked by hand on the morning it goes out to you, from real, wholesome ingredients, with functional doses of brewer's yeast, flaxseed and oats to support milk production. Nothing is warehoused and nothing is packed with preservatives. Our cookies are built for the kind of appetite that comes with feeding a baby, on the days when eating properly is the first thing to fall off the list.

We exist to help breastfeeding mothers celebrate the journey and nourish themselves guilt free, even on the busiest of days.

This is food that tastes good, does something, and asks nothing of you.

- Tanya & Karan

How we started

I'm Tanya, and Milk and Bloom started in my own kitchen, in the middle of my own postpartum, when I was hungry at 3am and reaching for whatever was closest.

Then a close friend talked to me about her supply and everything else she was finding hard about breastfeeding, and I went looking for something I could send her that was both genuinely functional and genuinely good to eat. What I found was mostly small, dry and disappointing. It had been baked months earlier, it did not look or taste like anything you would actually want to eat, and frankly, some of the marketing put me off entirely. So I started baking instead, and I kept baking, because it turned out I was not the only one who wanted more than that.

Everything we make now is still baked fresh and sent the same day, still made from ingredients you would recognise in your own pantry, and still built around the belief that looking after yourself during this season should not feel like another thing you are failing at.

Our Values

Freshly baked, never warehoused.

Everything is baked on the day they're dispatched, with a shelf life just like real food. We refuse to compromise on quality for extended shelf life.

Functional, not decorative.

Every treat is meant to be a moment of comfort, nourishment, and self-care.

Education & empowerment

We provide honest guidance so mums can make informed choices.

Support without pressure

There is enough pressure in this season without a brand adding to it. We will never tell you your body is not doing enough, and we will never suggest that a cookie is the difference between a good mother and a struggling one.

Why choose us

Freshly Baked, Like Real Food Should Be

Our lactation treats have a shelf life that reflects real, wholesome food because we want you to enjoy the freshest, most flavorful treats possible. Every batch is made to order with care and precision, ensuring that you receive nothing less than the highest quality, made-from-scratch cookies that nourish both your body and soul.

Guiding You Every Step of the Way

Our goal is bigger than just a product. We aim to be a trusted resource for your breastfeeding journey. We take the time to educate and empower you with the information you need to make the best decisions for yourself. Whether it’s understanding the importance of your milk supply or knowing what works best for your body, we’re committed to helping you make informed choices. Our goal is to ensure that you feel supported and confident every step of the way, with no pressure to make a purchase unless it’s right for you

Giving back

Every month we donate cookies to the neonatal units (NICU) at Westmead and the Royal Hospital for Women, for the mothers sitting beside humidicribs, expressing around the clock for babies they are not able to hold yet. It is the quietest thing we do and the last thing we would ever stop doing.

Since launching, we have worked with NSW Health, partner with the Mater Foundation, and in August 2026, we donated one hundred percent of the net profit from World Breastfeeding Week to Panda Health.
