Review of Edelweiss

Review


Edelweiss is worth a splurge! Incredibly artistic, imaginative European-style pastries, with over half their offerings gluten-free. So many flavors to choose from. Gorgeous presentation - almost like sculpture - and absolutely delicious! It’s located in a lovely old house with beautiful porch seating, as well as cafe tables indoors. Perfect spot for an elegant and relaxing coffee hour. No offerings other than pastries, coffee, and cold drinks. Not sure about behind the scenes kitchen safety, but GF pastries are in a separate case from flakey/crumbly items like croissants and Danish, and are each on a tiny individual tray for storage and serving, protecting against cross-contamination. My sensitive celiac spouse had two separate visits without post-visit incident and felt confident about safety.
