No dedicated equipment or space. Makes gf options first. Against my better judgment I tried one. The staff that day said people who choose to eat gf love them, but celiacs typically avoid the cupcakes. I should have listened. Several hours later I felt terribly ill. The cupcake was delicious- but not worth it. Try GF by the Sea, or JPs bakery instead!

We got two cupcakes, the cake taste like a cupcake should and had a filing which was like a dense whipped cream filing. The topping was all whipped cream frosting so not super sweet. I was hoping for a buttercream frosting but it was still satisfying.

There were around 8 gluten free cupcake options on the day we stopped in. Not that we don’t enjoy the usual vanilla and chocolate gluten free cupcakes traditionally sold at most bakeries, but it was wonderful having unique options. The cupcakes were delicious and the staff taking our order was very friendly. We will definitely go back!

These were the BEST cupcakes I’ve ever had. She has gf cupcakes on the weekends in multiple flavors. I have tried the vanilla, crepe brûlée, and the blueberry cobbler and they were all to die for. My non gluten free friend tried them and she said they taste just like regular ones. Don’t pass this up.
