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!!!!

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self.

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium. Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend...

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.

      The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      I am so sorry you are going through this; it sounds incredibly overwhelming and disheartening to be dismissed by the very medical professionals you're turning to for help. It is completely understandable that you feel lost and exhausted, not just from the relentless physical symptoms like the leg pain, stomach issues, and profound fatigue, but from the psychological toll of being told it's "just IBS" or that you need a therapist when you know your body is signaling that something is wrong. While it's true that a normal tTG test can indicate that celiac disease itself is being managed from a dietary perspective, it is a major oversight for your doctors to ignore your other diagnoses like SIBO, a hernia, and Barrett's esophagus, all of which can contribute significantly to the symptoms you describe. You are absolutely right to be seeking a new Primary Care Physician who will listen to your full history, take your Barrett's diagnosis seriously, and help you coordinate a care plan that looks at the whole picture, because your experience is not just in your head—it's in your entire body, and you deserve a medical team that acknowledges that. I had hernia surgery (laparoscopic), and it's not a big deal, so hopefully you can have your new doctor give you some guidance on that.

Neuro-Cognitive Effects of Acute Tyrosine Administration on Reactive and Proactive Response Inhibition in Healthy Older Adults https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6084775/ "In conclusion, we show age-related effects of tyrosine administration especially on proactive, not reactive, response inhibition, accompanied by signal changes in dopamine-rich fronto-striatal brain regions. Specifically, we observed that tyrosine’s effect on brain and cognition became detrimental with increasing age, questioning the cognitive enhancing potential of tyrosine in healthy aging."
