Inspired by a spiritual fast in 2018, Corry Smith decided that it was finally time to share her baking mixes with the world. Her daughter’s health crisis, which began years earlier, marked the beginning of her family’s health journey. The standard American diet was no longer an option, so Corry knew that she had to get creative in the kitchen. As her family’s health improved, she perfected her recipes and reintroduced comfort foods that were both healthy and delicious. Although she made many popular dishes over the years, it was her baking products that received the most praise from family and friends. This became the foundation for her company, CorEats.
CorEats, a packaged food company founded by Corry Smith, had its roots in her family’s health journey which began fifteen years ago. What started as a series of strange systems experienced by her eldest daughter turned into major dietary and wellness changes for everyone in the household. Replacing the standard American diet with a whole foods diet turned out to be the difference maker they were searching for. Corry’s dissatisfaction with many of the gluten-free options she found in the supermarket served as inspiration to create her own versions of the comfort foods that her family enjoyed.
As she perfected her recipes and shared them with her community, Corry often received praise and affirmation that she had a culinary gift. After a spiritual fast in 2018, she fully accepted this blessing and decided to share her baking mixes on a much larger scale. It was during this brief period that she finalized and documented seven complete recipes which she debuted with the launch of her newly formed company. Today, CorEats is a vibrant and growing enterprise. Corry has an ever-expanding list of wholesale accounts, and she is currently finalizing arrangements to partner with a co-packer, which will bring her products to new locations throughout the country.
