The smell in there is very… a lot. I used the restroom waiting for help. The restroom was not at all clean. Between the overpowering mixture of smells and the filthy restroom (that employees use) I did not order food.

While everything is gluten free and they are very knowledgeable about other allergens, I find their baked goods to be only ok, and very pricey. I think they are not worth it. I have only purchased baked goods though, and none of their meals.

From the owner


As our founder and CEO I am a registered dietitian who believes that food should taste wonderful and still be loaded with healthy ingredients. We search for the finest ingredients on Earth then we create from scratch. I started with creating my exclusive flour blends, then we add organic coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil or even walnut oil to add richness and flavor to our recipes. We sweeten with honey, organic coconut sugar and fruit juices to keep nutrients high and sweetness just right. Need sugar-free? We’ve got you covered! We use several of the popular sugar-free blends on the market including stevia, monk fruit as well as xylitol and erythritol.

Our vegan cupcakes are heavenly…my favorite is the Lemon Chiffon.

Want something savory? Come with an appetite! We are home of the original Cali-Crust Pizza that we dress to impress with home-made pesto, Sofrito and 3 different kinds of cheese. Wowza.

We even offer cooking and nutrition classes, so be sure to check us out.

I can’t wait to personally meet you so come by soon.

Blessings! Suzanne Ryman.

I ordered a birthday cake, chocolate with vanilla buttercream frosting, and it was delicious! The cake had just the right amount of frosting and it was not overly sweet. The cake was moist and yummy! The customer service was fabulous! The workers all greeted me when I picked up the cake and were very courteous. I will definitely be back.

Suzanne the owner is a registered dietician. She was super helpful and friendly. It’s not set up like a cafe it’s more like to-go items. I was traveling and staying in SA so it was perfect because I had meals I could put in the hotel fridge and heat up. The chicken enchiladas was amazing! So was the turkey burger with sweet potato fries.

I never thought I would find another gluten free bakery in town but I did! Friendly and not only knowledgeable of gluten but they are also dietitians so that makes it even more amazing of a place. I walked out with vegan/gluten free chocolate chip cookies, cupcake and cinnamon rolls yes I know cinnamon rolls! I'm excited to go back and try the rest food.

Be warned, they do not label items correctly. Everything should have a tree nut warning, and probably many other cross contamination warnings. Owner is aware but not concerned about labeling.

Cauliflower pizza is delicious, so is the carrot cake cupcake! If you don't see the store & your GPS thinks you have arrived, go right. It is directly behind the dental place. They do have 3 tables & 9 chairs. I also got meals to go that look delicious & nutritious as well as safe. They will ship.

Just stopped for a delicious lunch with my family. This place has so much potential. It's a dedicated gluten free business but at the moment they don't cater for sitting in. However they accommodated us as we were needing a sit down meal. The cauliflower pizza, turkey burger and spinach lasagna were all lip smacking tasty and the vanilla and chocolate cup cakes finished our lunch of with total deliciousness. The service and food were 5 star and if they had a proper sit in service I'd have given full 5 star review.

Tastes OK. They don't include the all the ingredients on their ingredient list - had to ask about what was in the sprinkles/cookie crumbles/etc, so don't go in thinking its completely safe of a particular allergen if you are sensitive.

I didn't get told what was in the sprinkles - asked, waited awhile, never got an answer so I tried other stuff which was OK.

Could be some potential, but they aren't doing the best job on allergen tracking

what a great place! Really friendly staff, very many tasty options as well. The main thing that I found so appealing about this place, is the fact that a dietician runs it and that she really puts a lot of emphasis on well balanced nutrition with a lot of protein and no empty calories. So much gluten free food can be junk, this place emphasizes nutritional value in everything they make from cupcakes to muffins to pizzas and dinner dishes you really can't go wrong. when we showed up the staff gave us a full tour and let a sample all sorts of things, they were really friendly and forth coming we really appreciate it. If you are gluten free check it out!
