While the high quality 100% gf pastries still feel like a well-kept secret, they are now available in an increasing number of locations, thanks to our wholesale program, CCP Gluten Free Baking. Currently, in addition to our gluten-free cafe at 5915 SW Corbett Avenue, you can enjoy our gf coffeecakes and granola at The Fresh Pot Hawthorne (3729 SE Hawthorne) and a selection of gf pastries at Coffee Plant Downtown (724 SW Washington Street). And now, Divine Cafe (located in NCNM campus in Southwest Portland) as well as Food Front Hillsdale are selling our gluten-free goodies. Hooray!
We also offer a variety of cold salads, soups and other lunch items and are still making quiches with the Bravaria Mills crusts. We have a number of pastries that are dairy free as well (cookies and bars) and can do custom cakes and pies that exclude other allergens. Our retail area is always stocked with scone/muffin/cookie mixes ready to buy and make at home. So look for that when visiting us. Hope to see you soon!
