I very rarely provide reviews, especially bad ones, but if I were a Celiac tourist looking for a bakery, I would want to be warned.

First, the good things: nice people and nice atmosphere. Now the bad: the food!

It all looked very good, so I ordered four cupcakes to go. I tried the “keto” one at the store and it was so awful I could only stomach a few bites. I couldn’t wait to get the taste out of my mouth on the walk back to the hotel. Once I did, I opened up the container and tried one bite of another cupcake: not good. Then I tried a bite of another: still not good.

Turns out the bakers at La Otilia believe “gluten free” means “sugar” free!

This must have been not just a gluten free bakery, but also vegan. There’s just no other explanation for how awful those cupcakes tasted.

Celiac friendly?

Yes
