Babycakes

It seems like in NYC cupcake cafes are emerging everywhere (Magnolia's, Billy's, Crumbs, etc.), unfortunately they are off limits to people with Celiac Disease and other food allergies. However, I was reading this week in Time Out New York magazine that there is a new cupcake cafe called, Babycakes. All of their cupcakes are gluten free, egg free, dairy free, and free of refined sugars. They are made with very healthy ingredients too. The bakery is open fairly late (until about 10pm) and is located on 248 Broome Street (between Ludlow and Orchard Sts.). I haven't tried it yet, but I most likely will soon. You can see pictures of the cupcakes at Open Original Shared Link . They look very good! Has anyone tried this place yet? If so, what did you think?

These look so delicious. I wish I was back in NYC. Also, I don't know if they're any good, but Happy Happy Happy also sells gluten-free cupcakes....

OH MY GOD!!!!!! :D

Im so happy I joined this site!!! You learn new things all the time. I was soooo happy to read about a gluten-free Cupcake bakery!!!!!!!!! I havent had a true cupcake in 7 years!!! How did they taste???

I live in NYC. I love Broome St/Bleeker, etc... Will def. go check it out asap. BTW, theres a place close by called Risotteria and they have lots of gluten-free food (including a killer brownie!!!!). Try it out if possible.

I found about this through a web site called CeliacChicks.

This is soooo awesome to exchange gluten-free places in NYC........

Ive heard of a few others, never tried them though.

Lately Ive been eating the gluten-free food at PF Changs. UNBELIEVABLE gluten-free food---what a feeling eating gluten-free Chinese food that doesnt taste gluten-free at all!!!!!!! :o ).

Im so excited :lol:

To mandigirl-

Hey, I've been to Risotteria--the best gluten-free restaurant in NYC... Risotteria was trained by the GFRAP (Gluten-free restaurant awareness program). The GFRAP has many other restaurants certified as being trained to cook gluten-free:

Someone else mentioned Happy Happy Happy, a bakery not on this list, but one that serves gluten-free food, nonetheless: Open Original Shared Link

The cupcakes at Happy Happy Happy are awesome, but I'll definately try this one to. Funny you should post this though, I was just thinking today about how much I miss Crumbs.

      This older article makes me wonder about the GFCO and its protocols:

      I’ve been using almond flour from nuts.com for over 10 years. I have dermatitis herpetiformis all over. The rash started about two months ago. I finally eliminated the almond flour, labeled certified gluten free, two weeks ago, and I think the dermatitis herpetiformis is finally healing. I am so bummed.

      If you need that designation you'll likely need to switch to a different brand. It's unfortunate that they don't add it to their label and test for gluten.

      Thank you for the reply  , I have tried the Baush & Lomb brand and did have a gluten reaction.  O spoke to the mfg and they state the same as many other mfgs.   - NO Gluten intentionally added to product , but they have no control ( they choose not to) over their suppliers of various ingredients  I am really trying to only take vitamins  that clearly state gluten free

      DiGiorno reformulated and have not been using wheat starch for a couple of years now, so this should not be an issue: https://www.goodnes.com/digiorno/products/digiorno-gluten-free-frozen-pepperoni-pizza/ It does contain other ingredients that may be causing you IBS-like issues, for example guar gum.  Many gluten-free foods and baking mixes contain xanthan gum or other gums like guar gum. Although they are both gluten-free, they may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:
