Gigi's Cupcakes

I ate one of their gluten free cupcakes. I was told that they were made by a third party in a bakery that made gluten free items in a separate area but that they were not dedicated gluten free. She basically told me to enjoy at my own risk since I am celiac. I took a small bite, not smart, I know; but sometimes the craving overtakes me, and I did not get sick! It was sooooo delicious. Best cupcake I’ve had in a long time.

Gigi’s makes fresh cupcakes daily, but there are a limited number of gluten friendly cupcakes— so they’re first come-first serve (unless you place an order in advance of course). They have two standard flavors year-round that are gluten friendly (“triple chocolate torte” & “wedding cake” which is a vanilla with buttercream frosting). They typically have a third flavor that is alternated based on the day/season. For example I’ve had a pumpkin caramel flavor during the fall, but presently (winter) they have a Banana Caramel Crunch option that’s gluten friendly. I found this location of the national chain to be just as good as other locations that I’ve had positive experiences with previously.

I asked for the gluten free torte and was given what looked like a cupcake with chocolate frosting.

Was told by the young cashier that they are very careful to make sure it is gluten free. I took it home to eat... it didn't taste home made. It had that chemical preservative after taste. A couple hours later and I was sick, sick, sick. 😖
