About ChipMonk Baking

ChipMonk's co-founder, Jose Hernandez, lives with type-2 diabetes but keeps his blood sugar under control by adhering to a high-fat, low-carb diet instead of taking medication. Unfortunately, he's always struggled with a sweet tooth and couldn't find tasty desserts that fit his diet. Tired of choosing between enjoying sweets and spiking his blood sugar, he simply decided to make his own. Together with friend David Downing, he researched alternative ingredients like almond flour, allulose, and monk fruit, and eventually created the perfect low sugar, low carb cookie recipe. Having realized that it’s possible to make something delicious without sugar, gluten, or artificial sweeteners, David and Jose are bringing back dessert for anyone struggling with diabetes or celiac disease, and for those pursuing a low carb, ketogenic lifestyle.Read their story
