Everything is awesome! We drove an hour from Anna Maria Island and it was worth every minute of the drive! My daughter got 6 assorted items from a donut to cookies to muffins. It's all amazing! They told me to freeze the items because she couldn't eat them that fast while on vacation. We've thawed what she wanted the night before and it's all sooo good!

So glad to find this great little gluten-free, vegan bakery. The Raspberry cupcakes and the brownie/cookie were so delicious! As someone with food allergies it's such a delight to find an option for safe bakery items. Highly recommend!!! Celiac safe.

Amazing all GF and Vegan bistro/bakery! Their bread and buns are delicious. I had a breakfast sammie which was very tasty. My husband had the breakfast quesadilla. Kids had garlic rolls and grilled cheese. Both of our kids have Celiac so it was such a treat to have donuts and donut holes. Wish we had this in CT!

Amazing GF donuts!! Always stop when I am in town.
Dedicated GF
This is a dedicated GF facility so it is safe for celiacs and people with severe allergies.
They have had bakeries for several years and have just open a restaurant.
Everything I have tried is delicious, but the prices are insane.
$5.99 for one Donut, or brownie.
$14.99 for a loaf of bread.
A 6” cake is $82 A 8” cake $120.
Way out of my price range when I can buy excellent fresh bread at Whole Foods for $7.99.
Here is a cake they offer:
Sprinkle Vanilla Cake, Vanilla Buttercream, Rainbow Jimmie
6” $75 | 8” $108
"Dedicated Gluten-Free, Vegan & Allergy Friendly

Went looking for a GF snack and were not disappointed. We each had a raspberry lemon cupcake and split a chocolate ganache. Delicious!
Dedicated GF
It was ok. We got some donuts and a Brookie. The desserts looked better than they tasted. Kind of disappointed.
Dedicated GF
The pastries were just ok tasting and they made me very bloated and ill. When talking to a local at another Gluten Free Bakery (without even mentioning the name of this place, just said I got sick at a nearby bakery that said it was dedicated gluten free) she brought it up by name and told me they sometimes have cross-contamination issues. I definitely wouldn't recommend them to anyone!

Cinnamon rolls. Do I need to say more? 🤣
Dedicated GF
The lady was friendly, it’s just a place to buy and take out. Products were pretty, we got half a dozen ($32). The chocolate with chocolate frosting was by far the best. The white/yellow cake was dry. All were very sweet! The donut seem to be baked and are actually not like donuts at all more like cupcakes with holes in the middle.

After following this bakery and it’s founders on social media for years, I finally realized how close it is to the condo we rent in Indian Rocks Beach every year and stopped in. Wow!!! So glad I did!!! Bought several kinds of donuts and cupcakes and some frozen items as well. All delicious and the woman helping us was very nice! What a blessing as a person with celiac, to be able to walk in and have SO MANY choices!!! Will be back for sure!!
Dedicated GF
So delicious! And all gluten free! We got six different kinds of donuts and all were so yummy!

To say they tickled my pickle is to say the least. Great food, great selection and they’re 100% celiac safe!!! No cross contamination 🥳

We were visiting Clearwater last week & found this place using the FMGF app. Got cupcakes, which were delicious. Got a pack of 6 cinnamon rolls to heat & eat the next morning. Everyone loved them, even the non-gluten free people. One of our group wanted something sugar-free, so we got her a package of mini cupcakes, which she said were wonderful. There are apparently more locations & I cannot speak for them, but everything from the Tech Street location was fabulous, plus the woman helping us was very pleasant & helpful. I highly recommend!

It’s a little bit hidden but the baked goods are super yummy! The staff was very nice and we even got a free baked good!
Dedicated GF
Bakery only (no savory). Everything was amazing. I bought the take and bake cinnamon rolls plus a cinnamon toast crunch donut. Best donut I've ever had. You can't go wrong with anything here!

Everything was delicious and fresh. The staff was friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back. So many options! The only thing I did not like was the sugar free keto brownies.

My little GF DF kiddo just loves this place! It was a hard switch to keep him on this diet but so glad we found you! They taste so good! Healthy can be delicious!

Amazing sweets. Donuts were incredible. Our little celiac was so happy!
Dedicated GF
Always love finding a gluten free bakery. And this was a Delicious (!) one. The cupcakes were fabulous. I couldn’t believe they were vegan and would have sworn there was butter in them if I didn’t know otherwise. My celiac felt comfortable eating everything and has had no problems afterwards.
Dedicated GF
The cupcakes are divine and the brownies are so good!!! Satisfied my sweet tooth I had for a month of being diagnosed. Will be back!
Dedicated GF
We ordered a few baked goods to sample and everything was spectacular. The whole family enjoyed the items, even those not gluten free. I would definitely recommend this bakery!

Amazing desserts! Everything there is gluten and dairy free!!

This is the best Bakery ever!! I am addicted. Every thing I have gotten from them has been incredible. I was even gifted the candied yam cupcake a while back, didn’t think I’d like it. It was by far my favorite treat I’ve had from them. They will not disappoint. Worth the trip no matter how far!!!

The owner is Celiac too. I’m on the extreme side and I’ve been eating her baked goods for a couple years now safely. Excellent tasting everything!!!. The best bread I’ve had. The cinnamon rolls ridiculously good. They also have keto items as well. 100% Celiac friendly.

My daughter is celiac and extremely sensitive. This is 100% gluten free and my daughter had no problems. Thank you to the management for keeping people like my daughter safe.

If you have Celiac this place is a must! The cinnamon rolls are absolutely amazing—the owner said they took two years to perfect the recipe and it was time well spent! We ended up going back before we left town to grab a few frozen treats to take home!

Dedicated Gluten Free Bakery, now in South TAMPA! It is located across from Plant High School. So happy to have them nearby. In addition to doughnuts, they have cupcakes, and also a freezer with a great ‘take and bake’ selection. We have tried many of their products, love them!
Dedicated GF
SO RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE. I ordered a donut and it tasted like mush... Undercooked maybe? Texture just was not right at all. I said I had never been there before, and she showed me like 3 options lol... Pretty limited. The 2 stars are all for the cinnamon rolls I took home and baked. They were DELICIOUS, but I baked them so I was able to cook them all the way through.
Take great precautions for COVID
Amazing GF bakery! SO many choices and they ship! Ordered a special order GF cake for my son’s 16th birthday and it was perfect! They can do anything!

This place was amazing! It’s been a very long time since I’ve been able to have a great chocolate cake and their chocolate ganache cupcake was wonderful! Very safe. I have celiac‘s and I had absolutely no reaction. Can’t wait to go back soon!!!
Absolutely magnificent + allergen friendly. Their doughnuts are out of this world!!
Halelife is absolutely amazing. Taylor and Laura are huge advocates for the celiac community & the food allergy community in general. All their products are high quality and drool worthy! It is the best feeling being able to walk into an establishment and know with confidence that the staff is educated on celiac disease and that you’re going to be able to truly enjoy whatever you purchase with no worry of being “glutened”. They even make dog treats that my dog very much enjoys. I highly recommend that if you’re in the greater Tampa Bay Area, you plan time to visit Halelife Bakery!
Amazing desserts! Some of the best cupcakes I've ever had.
Fantastic dedicated bakery. Little hard to find though, but worth it.
