Sweet & Sustainable—Kukki Vegan Bakery Opens in Maywood

There’s a new reason to smile in Maywood—especially if you’ve got a sweet tooth and a love for plant-based living. Kukki, a charming new vegan bakery, has officially opened its doors on East Pleasant Avenue, offering Bergen County a delicious twist on traditional treats.

Founded by sisters Miko and Amal Page, Kukki is more than just a bakery—it’s a labor of love rooted in wellness, creativity, and a shared passion for crafting desserts that are as wholesome as they are indulgent.

The sisters bring a unique mix of backgrounds to their venture. Miko, a former professional golfer with a business degree, fine-tuned the bakery’s recipes with a focus on simplicity and flavor. Amal, whose love for baking bloomed early on, infused the business with her own flair for health-conscious confections and community-minded energy.

At Kukki, everything is made in small batches, using 100% plant-based ingredients. But don’t expect anything “alternative” about the taste—these cookies are rich, satisfying, and designed to win over everyone from lifelong vegans to devoted dessert traditionalists.

“Our goal was always to create something inclusive,” says Amal. “We wanted Kukki to be a place where anyone could walk in, enjoy something sweet, and feel good about it.”

Located right in the heart of downtown Maywood, Kukki is already becoming a neighborhood favorite for locals and visitors alike. Whether you’re grabbing a cookie on the go or looking for a thoughtful gift, it’s worth a visit.
