Review


I love that this place is dedicated gluten-free. I like their superseeded bread with the poppyseeds, and the oatmeal bread. They put a little brown sugar/sugar in their breads which helps give them a nice brown color and taste, but doesn’t necessarily work for people who need to avoid sugar. The donut holes are also really good and the chocolate chip pumpkin muffins are good although I think a little too sweet for me. I like coming to the store for a treat and the staff can always tell me which things are dairy free.

My only complaint is that I prefer more whole-grain/nutrient dense/healthy stuff and they don't have any breads/baked goods made with mostly whole grain. Because of this, I prefer VT Gluten Free's honey oat bread and enjoy life's sprouted flax bread. I hope in the future they branch out into the whole grain/healthy genre!

Update: they had GF Spatzle from another VT company in their freezer when I went recently. I had never bag’s Spatzle before but made it up at home according to the directions which was very easy and it was good! They also lately have been making some cheesy options like jalapeño poppers which are tasty. FYI they also make special orders like lemon merengue pie or hot cross buns.
