Papa Ganache is vegan but they have an extensive gluten free spread. Very good.

For a longer drive, wildflour in Lawrenceville is very good and worth the trip.

I just heard that Wildflour closed down. I liked them, but their website no longer comes up.

I am honestly shocked. They were so good. Always packed. That’s upsetting but I hope they’re ok.

Papa Ganache, Wildflour and Cafe LaDeDa are all great! Probably each like a 30-40 min drive from the Brunswicks though. Broad Street Dough Co in Freehold has GF donuts.

I’ll have to make a visit to Cafe LaDeDa as part of a beach day. 🤔

That's what I did! They also have breakfast foods (and lunch iirc) and more options than Wildflour or Papa Ganache. Highly recommend following them on IG for specials!

I haven’t had the others but Broad Street Dough Co is really good. I’m near their Ocean/Oakhurst location on Rt 35 & have been there many times. They also have vegan donuts and all of their products are certified kosher.

Everybody Eats in Gowanus, Brooklyn is great. You can order online from him, too. It's a little pricey but justifiable.

Ashley’s Organic Desserts is amazing! She’s really lovely to work with, too, and can do custom orders. She offers pick up from her home in Robbinsville, right off 195, but I believe she’s in the Howell area, too. We’re near Red Bank and it was 100% worth the drive. We had emailed and called around to a number of different bakeries about a custom order but she was the only bakery who could make something safe for my son allergy wise.

We got a gluten free, dairy free, egg free, soy free & pea protein free cake from her 2 months ago for my son’s birthday and it was absolutely delicious. No one in our family could believe that it was actually free of all of those allergens as it tasted that good. We all went back for seconds & thirds.

Depending on what you’re looking for, another really delicious option is Cookman Creamery in Asbury Park. They make gluten free, vegan ice cream cakes and pies. The one I got had gluten free chocolate crunchies in the center like how Carvel makes their ice cream cakes. Their vegan ice creams are made with different bases like coconut cream, oat milk, almond milk, cashew milk, soy milk or tahini for those with allergies or personal preferences.

I’ll have to check them out. I’m more in the boat that I miss pastries and treats after having to stop eating gluten a year ago, but it is great to know she does custom cake orders.

But I miss croissants so much.

Ashley’s Organic Desserts does a lot more than cakes including a variety of different types of pastries. Good luck on finding some good croissants! I have the same allergies as my son plus a few more. Good baked goods are hard to come by.
