Sweet Christine's Bakery - Kennett Square, Pa

I just returned from a three-day visit to the Brandywine Valley region of southeastern Pennsylvania (near the Delaware border). Sweet Christine's Bakery is on West State Street, the westbound (one-way) main street through Kennett Square, and everything in it is gluten-free! They are primarily a wholesale business, but the bakery is open to walk-in customers Wednesday-Saturday, 10:00-6:00. In addition to cookies, brownies, and cupcakes, they sell pizzas (in two sizes), bagels, and on Fridays and Saturdays--chicken salad and bean salad. There are a few tables for people who want to have lunch right there.

Their website is here: Open Original Shared Link

I highly recommend this bakery!

I'm considering a Labor Day trip to the Brandywine River area. Anyone have any other suggestions for restaurants?

Thanks,

Can't personally vouch for it, but Floga Bistro in Kennett Square, PA has gluten free pizza and pasta.

To help future searches, this applies to the Brandywine Valley area and Wilmington, DE.

Timing was off for a meal at Sweet Christine's but we did have muffins there and they were very good. I also got a pretzel stick to go and had that as a later snack and it was also good.

Pizza By Elizabeth just north of Wilmington was very convenient to the museums we were visiting so we had lunch there two days. The gluten-free crust seemed to be corn based. While I wasn't highly impressed with the crust alone, overall it was great pizza, generous toppings, etc.

For evening meals we stuck with the chains with gluten-free menus (PF Changs and Outback).

For the travel, if you like to tour homes and gardens of the wealthy, there are several owned by members of the Du Pont family in this area north of Wilmington. If you like art similar to N.C. or Andrew Wythe, the Brandywine Art Museum and Delaware Art Musem are good stops.

      How many grams is there in one slice of wheat bread?

      By Jack Common · Posted

      I don't have symptoms now. But this DGP IgG is high than normal. I read your article. Very nice by the way. Based on it I don't need to do DGP IgG because I don't have IgA deficiency. I did it first time because those days I didn't know the right procedure for blood tests so I did all. What might you do if you was me? Just keep eating gluten and do tests again after some time? Biopsy is not available in my town. I also read somewhere if a person has NCGS he doesn't have any blood tests high. Very confusing situation.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By Jack Common · Posted

      What can I do next? Just continue getting gluten from food and do the tests again after some time like 6 months while observing symptoms if any? I read somewhere if a person has NCGS he shouldn't have any blood tests high. So I'm worry.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Nicbent35 · Posted

      Wow she was just playing with play dough yesterday and I actually thought i wonder if I have to worry about play dough! But no meltdowns yesterday. Is your daughter celiac or just gluten sensitive/intolerant? Your son still had to go on Ritalin after going gluten free?

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      I had the endoscopy with biopsy done. I have gastritis and duodenitis at this point. The biopsy should provide the cause of the inflammation findings. How common are these findings when Celiac is the ultimate culprit?

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      Welcome to the forum @cookiesyum, I lasted on staton for about a month before getting so weak I had to stop.   Switched to Nicotinic Acid and I posted the results in a previous post.  Instead of getting sicker and weaker on the statin I feel I am improving day by day.  Nicotinic Acid was first used for cholesterol in 1955.
