The Baked Bear

I have been wanting to try this place for a while. The gluten free cookies appeared to be on their own rack behind the counter. The presentation of the cookie sandwich was awesome, but the taste left much to be desired. The cookies tasted like they had been sitting out all day, which it looks like they had. I think if they would heat them up that might help a lot. GF ice cream choices are clearly marked which is nice. Honestly, I ended up throwing my cookie sandwich away. Appreciate the effort, but would rather leave room for a better dessert.

I asked if the gluten free cookies/brownies were made with oat flour (as I am sensitive to even gf oats) and they gave me the ingredients sheet. They are Sweet Loren’s cookies and brownies fyi and yes both have oat flour. We did not end up eating here for this reason.

It was delicious. I had 2 different gluten free cookies with dairy free ice cream in the middle. They took off gloves and replaced with new. Very satisfied

I was so sad after reading the reviews and then going. Girl behind counter seemed so disinterested. I told her I was a Celiac. She didn’t change her gloves and she cross contaminated. She picked up cookies for customer before me then went and touched my gluten free ones. Very upsetting as I couldn’t eat them. Still bought them and gave to friend as I didn’t want another celiac to suffer from her neglect.

After telling the person behind the counter about a gluten allergy, she didn’t change her gloves and cross contaminated the food and the area. Only 2 flavors of ice scream were gluten free and neither tasted good.
