The Grainless Baker

I already was in love with the graham crackers from The Grainless Baker, but I had the pleasure of meeting the owners and trying a whole bunch of their products on Saturday when they were having a sampling at a store in New Caanan, CT.

I seriously don't think they make anything that is less than perfect!! Everything I tried was so good I couldn't stop myself from trying something else, and something else and something else!! I was full by the time I left. LOL!!

I had the blueberry muffins (so moist and delicious), carrot cake, mock rye bread (which I have to say pretty much made my year), cheese crackers (only thing I didn't love, but I'm not a big cheese person. Someone who is would love this) and snickerdoodles.

On top of creating some of the most AMAZING products, the owners are truly a wonderful couple. So sweet. Even though there were plenty of products I didn't try, based on everything I did try I can't imagine any of their products would disappoint. They could certainly fool any gluten eater.

Oh, and I used their graham crackers a couple weeks ago to make a cheese cake for Easter at my inlaws and everyone was raving about it, and some even said the crust was their favorite part!!! I got an email the next day from one of his cousins saying that her mom was still talking about the cheesecake. LOL!!

mmm.. I'm lucky to have them nearby, My Parents live about 10 minutes from the bakery itself, but about 20 minutes from the "store front" that is a real bakery. They are moving to a new Facility soon! I love there bread and brownies!

I reccomend their stuff 100%!

The Grainless Baker is who I choose to make my own gluten-free wedding cake. My family lives near their homebase in Lake Ariel so when I am home we go to the Bakery in Moosic. When I am here, I just go to the Dillsburg store and grab what else I want. The butterfly cookies are to die for as well. John loves the Macademias and he is not even gluten free.

It is not exactly a place, they are a family owned company located in NEPA. They sell their products in stores in the surrounding states. They continue to expand too. I am so glad.

www.grainlessbaker.com

Their site has a listing of stores where you can buy their products.

Hey all I know this is an old thread but I just wanted to drop a FYI to those who may not be up to speed on the Grainless Baker. They recently moved to a bigger bakery, they have fresh baked good daily. This is slightly tricky as they also sell non gluten-free items out of the shoppe also. So while you walk in and see all the yummy stuff thinking oooh... canolis.... damn there not gluten free. The gluten stuff isn't baked there, just somewhere where you can pick it up.

As i was there... the main baker came out to talk to a customer who was his friend, he had mentioned they were thinking of going on the national market! If anyone has had Grainless baker you know how good that would be!

mmm... i'm eating graham crackers right now!

Thanks for the update I haven't checked out the new place yet. If I was on Route 6 (Casey Highway) which way would I go...in through Waymart or a different route?

I wonder if they have an updated URL as well, do you know? The one listed above does not work (for me), and when I Googled them, it came up with the same thing. Although I have a sneaking suspicion they don't get as far as the Left Coast. I will just have to continue my quest for an alternative graham cracker recipe...!!

Their goods are sold in other stores. I've been able to buy The Grainless Baker breads, cookies, and cakes at Olive May in Princeton, NJ.

I would take that to route 84, get off the Lake Ariel exit and go towards hamiln. They are right off Route 590 on J&J Road. That is the highway...

Then there is the lowway... I know the back roads over salem mountain from carbondale so that is doable too, but I think that is more of a "sunday drive" than get there and get out.

Check out google maps.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I don't know if I am getting sufficient Omega Threes. I read about phosphotidyl choline may cause heart issues. I will have o do further research on heathy Omega 3 supplements or from foods. Is there a blood test that can tell you everything level in your system such as Thiamine, Benfotiamine levels etc? Thanks

      @catnapt, Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract. They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows. Even beans have lectins. You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract. You may want to allow your digestive tract...

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      If lectins were my problem, I would react to wheat germ (the highest source of wheat lectins) and beans. I don't. I only react to bread and pasta, which are the highest sources of gluten. Therefore, my issue is wheat-specific (Gluten/ATIs), not a general lectin issue.   I have eaten a supposedly high lectin diet (I say supposedly because lectin content in these foods is greatly reduced by proper cooking and I eat very few of those foods raw, and even then, rarely!!) for years. My health has improved greatly on my whole foods plant forward diet. I have asked all my drs and a registered dietician about my diet, asked if eating such a high amnt of fiber might interfere with the digestion of any other nutrients and the answer has always been NO.     while doing the gluten challenge I did not eat ANY wheat germ (since it doesn't have hardly any gluten, and I was too sick from the bread and pasta to want to eat much anyway) I will NOT put that poison in my body again. That was a horrific experience and if this is what most celiac patients have to deal with, I am very sorry for them I don't care if I have celiac or NCGS I won't intentionally cause myself that much pain and suffering it's not worth it.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!
