that Crumbs (upper westside location only) now has GLUTEN FREE CUPCAKES!!

Has anyone tried them yet? Are they as decadently frosted at the originals? (I know it's bad, but I've been known to slice the frosting off many a Crumbs or Buttercup or Magnolia cupcake... no gluten in frosting...)

A friend of mine went there and reported seeing them. I was on the Upper East last night, and stopped in a Crumbs to see if they had them. The girl at the counter told me that they didn't have them-- that they are only at the Upper Westside location! If you go, report back ASAP!

OMG if you're lying I will cry like I've never cried before. Crumbs cupcakes were my absolute favorite and one of the last treats I had before becoming gluten free for life. In fact last week someone had them at work and I really kinda got upset about it. Oh please let this be true!!!

Going to the city to gorge myself on gluten-free foods tomorrow, and I'll give it a try and report back. Gosh, I hope I have a good report!

Alas - went by the Upper West Side Crumbs yesterday and they denied knowledge of gluten-free cupcakes.

i don't get this! i just emailed them to figure it out, and they said they are "working on it"... they said they had wheat-free ones at passover, and i swear the woman at the upper eastside location said the gluten free ones were only at the upper westside location..... sorry guys........

on the cupcake front, are the babycakes ones well frosted? i am mainly a frosting person, could live w/o the cake anyway.......

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
