Fantastic Gluten Free Bakery In Nj!

Hello everyone!

At the recommendation of a friend, I went to an ALL gluten-free bakery in Fords, NJ. The bakery is owned by a family whose 23 daughter has Celiac disease and is the baker in the facility. I tried it out today and I was so impressed with the food and the family's understanding and knowledge that I had to share it with everyone. I am in no way affiliated with this bakery, just a HIGHLY satisfied customer who wants to spread the word and help this family with their plight to make fantastic foods that we all can ENJOY eating. Their bread is so soft and you would never know its gluten free. Although its not on their website, they are also making pierogies, ravioli, and are going to be starting to make sub sandwiches that are ALL gluten free. They allowed me to sample some of their items and I couldn't be more impressed. I walked out of there with gluten free pizza (not frozen), white bread, vanilla cupcakes, crumb cake, a chocolate chip cookie, and fudge brownies. My fiance who does not have Celiac even bought his own food because he loved it so much! I've included the link below if you want more information.

Thank you so much for posting this! I read this the day before I went to new jersey. On our way home today, we stopped there because it was literally on the way.

I got all kinds of goodies that were amazing! YUM! Before I bought the bread, they let me sample it. When I bit into it, I just started crying right there in the store. I couldn't help it because...I have forgotten what normal bread tastes like, and when I tried that bread...it tasted EXACTLY like the homemade fresh Italian bread I used to eat all the time. They were tears of joy because that is THE BEST gluten free bread I EVER had. The bakery is two hours away from where I live, but it's so amazing that I'm thinking of driving down there to get more bread. Anyone anywhere near this place...you HAVE TO stop by!

Thanks again for posting this!:D

An ALL Gluten free shop! How long have they been open? In all honesty, and not to be so negative, but I say enjoy it while you can. Can't see a buisness that caters soley to such a small niche group surviving for very long. But, let's hope so!

Hmmm, I retract my previous post. Did a quick internet search on this place and found several articles. Seems like the real deal! People love it. That's great! Enjoy!!

While I was there they were packing up dozens of cupcakes for people who were coming to pick them up. They were running out of food cause so many people were ordering! They said they have been really busy and had super good business. Good for them! I think gluten free stores are going to be doing better because so many people are doing this as a "fad " diet. That's one way those idiots will work to our advantage. Lol

You are VERY welcome!!!!! You have no idea how happy this made me when I read your post. I'm glad someone else was able to enjoy fantastic food! I haven't been gluten free for a very long time, but even in this short time I was missing my GOOD tasting bread and goodies. They ARE amazing and they are also an amazing family who take the time to talk to you and find out your story and share theirs. I was actually there today (to pick up 3 crumb cakes - my favorite - if you haven't tried it you MUST) and they let us sample double chocolate chip cookies that were to DIE for!!!! They're even making me my bridal shower cake for next year and I can't wait for everyone to try it and say how good it is - then I'll tell them that its gluten free and better than their gluteny cakes!!! Victoria is right, you have to stop by this place - you will not regret it! I also picked up fresh cheese raviolis that were just made. DELICIOUS!!!!

They have been open for a while and are one of only 3 strictly gluten free bakeries in NJ. Because they are doing so well they are thinking of expanding to a different location that's set up cafe style. I cant wait!!!!

      abnormal weight loss

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @glucel, Unintended weight loss is symptomatic of Thiamine deficiency.  Our bodies use more Thiamine when we are ill and stressed.  Switching to a gluten free diet can also result in a lower intake of Thiamine.   Interesting Reading: Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery depletes plasma thiamine levels https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2874825/ Gluten-free diet intervention reduces thiamine intake in two weeks... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34583628/ This study found normal people, without Celiac Disease and malabsorption concerns, had a drop in Thiamine after starting a gluten free diet.  They went back to eating a gluten containing diet.  We don't get that option.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like gluten containing counterparts.  Supplementing helps boost your absorption of essential vitamins and minerals.

      Maybe celiac, maybe just ncgs?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @Neat1, Yes, neck and shoulder pain can be symptoms of Gerd, which is fairly common in Celiac Disease. Ask for a DNA test, too.  Celiac Disease is genetic.  If you've got celiac disease genes, further testing is warranted.  Some people have Celiac genes, but don't have active Celiac Disease.  If you've got symptoms, your genes are probably activated.   Diabetes, anemia and Thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives on antibody tests.  Some people with Celiac Disease are seronegative.   Thiamine deficiency can cause constipation and gastrointestinal symptoms.  Magnesium supplementation can help with that, too.  Nutritional deficiencies like these are common in untreated Celiac Disease. Keep us posted on your progress!

      Not really.  Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not accurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels and have vitamin deficiency symptoms before blood levels change.  The brain sends messages to the body to release into the bloodstream any extra vitamins stored within cells of tissues and organs so that important organs like the brain and heart can keep getting a supply.  Even what you've eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours can affect blood tests.  Taking vitamin supplements eight to twelve weeks before testing, will give falsely elevated results.   Because tests for Thiamine can be so inaccurate, as well as time consuming and expensive, the World Health Organization recommends taking Thiamine and looking for health improvements.  Thiamine is nontoxic, even in high doses.  Thiamine is water soluble and any excess is easily excreted in urine.  WHO recommends giving 500 mg/day of Thiamine Hydrochloride for several days and looking for health improvements.  Some people with Thiamine deficiency need higher doses (1000 - 2000 mg/day).   Benfotiamine, a lipid soluble form of Thiamine, can get inside cells without using the thiamine transporters on the cell surface,  which shut down during thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine Hydrochloride has to get in by transporters, or by passive diffusion, which requires higher doses.  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  300 - 1200 mg/day of  Benfotiamine are required. Allithiamine (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide TTFD) can cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier cell, so Allithiamine is really helpful with neurological symptoms, brain fog, balance issues, problems swallowing, gastroparesis.  50 - 1000 mg/day of Allithiamine.  Find the best dose for you.   I understand the skepticism about Thiamine.  If I hadn't lived through it myself....read my blog...I was skeptical myself, but I could feel myself dying and was grasping at straws.  Within a few minutes of taking my first dose of Thiamine, I felt better and was astounded at how simple the solution was.   Is nutrition even taught in schools today?  I learned basic nutrition in Home Economics, but that's been cut.  Dieting programs distract from nutrition and mostly count calories.   P.S. Riboflavin Vitamin B2 deficiency has been linked to migraines.

      As far as your neck and shoulder pain goes, yes, this could be a symptom of celiac disease as one of the more than 200 symptoms associated with celiac disease is joint pain.

      10g of gluten or the amount in about 4-6 slices of bread daily for several weeks should be a sufficient "gluten challenge". Your primary care provider should be able to order those tests.
