I was so excited to find a gluten free bakery. I got the macaroons and the almond horn and a few whoopie pies. She gave me a sample of the macaroons. They’re delicious! But... within minutes of leaving, I had a reaction. I should’ve known better. I have celiac. It’s my fault for not checking out the place better.

My husband ordered me a gluten free cake for my birthday. I called back to ask what their procedures were. I was told they have a dedicated gluten free cake pan but they do not wipe down the counter. I was then told “if you are highly allergic i would not recommend this cake.” Not sure who would order a gluten free cake that has a risk of cross contamination so don’t see the point in offering/advertising one.

Amazing place, I’m sry I didn’t get the woman’s name...seemed like she was the owner but she was super sweet and accommodating. Allowed us to try a sample and explained which were celiac safe and which were just gluten free but possibly cross contaminated. Everything tasted amazing! Try the almond Mac
