Gluten Free Baked Goods In Alaska

While I was home for Spring Break, I noticed something: there were cranberry scones somewhere (don't recall where) that said "gluten free". I looked; noticed that it was a sorghum base, and moved on. Cool enough, but not worth the migraine from the sorghum. But worth noting, because Alaskans aren't known for having copious amounts of Alaskan-baked gluten free food on the shelf. I'd seen Alaskan-baked stuff at Middle Way in Anchorage before, and that was it.

Then I was in Europa Bakery in Anchorage and found out that they too carry these scones. But they also had chocolate chip cookies and cranberry almond cookies. The fact that the cookies used only almond meal was a point in their favor.

Bought both, even though they weren't casein free. (Besides, I'd been about three seconds from caving and buying a slice of Europa cake. Hives versus glutening...hives are going to win.)

If you're in AK? Almond Hearth, a Fairbanks-based company, is awesome. The cookies tasted amazing. According to almondhearth.com, they're available around Anchorage and Fairbanks right now, but that you can request that they start selling them in your town.

Do you still live in Alaska? I live in Anchorage and am allergic to gluten, dairy, and I suspect a few other things like sorghum.

I've seen baked goods at Middle Way but I've been hesitant to try them. Where else do you buy baked goods in Alaska?

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
