Off The Wheaten Path — Restaurant in Homer Township

I used to buy from her when she had her bakery out of her house. I’ve tried to come to her store front during her open hours and I’ve tried calling ahead dozens of times. Phone is never answered and she states in voicemail not to leave a message because she doesn’t check them. She’s never been open during open hours, sometimes I arrive as early as 11 am or noon. It’s extremely frustrating as I’ve driven almost an hour each way, each time and I’m not even able to see what she has to offer here. Extremely disappointed as I thought she was here for us who are so far away from other gluten free bakery options.

Edit addition: Thank you for responding, I really appreciate that. I’m not on Facebook, my family found you on Facebook a year or two ago which is why I was able to try a couple things a long time ago. What we tried was delicious but it’s been so long I’m not even sure what we bought.

It is very frustrating that I keep wasting gas and hours of my time driving, trying to arrive during the store hours only to see the closed sign on the door. I even saw another couple at the store at noon today, we were all hoping to stop in. This isn’t the first time I’ve seen other people confused why the store is closed during hours listed on Google and on the door. I’ve tried arriving as early as 11 am and the store wasn’t open at that time either. I’ve tried coming on weekends and had today off work so I thought a weekday might give me more likelihood to arrive before closing. This has pushed me to drive even farther to other bakeries that are open during their listed hours as it’s almost certain that this bakery will be closed no matter which day or time I try to stop in.

I did try to place an order ahead once on the website as well but never got a response to it. When I tried to stop in to pick up the order the bakery had already closed. I believe that day was listed as open until 3 pm and I arrived at 1 or 2 pm. It was soon after the store front opened. It’s just too difficult for me to try any longer after all of the failed attempts to come during listed hours and to pre-order through the website when the bakery closes before I can pick up an order.

I do wish you the best, it just doesn’t seem to work out for me to try to buy any...

I had ordered a vegan vanilla cake 6” small. The cake itself was a bit tough and hard to cut through, and maybe I shouldn’t have hoped for much given that I asked for a vegan cake and I know it is difficult to bake. Even the knife wasn’t able to cut through it though.

The buttercream frosting was quite nice and the fruits on top were good. I asked for something purple, but besides the blackberries nothing was quite purple on the cake. The aftertaste on the cake wasn’t good either… was cream of tartar used?

Service was nice and all the staff were absolutely sweet to talk to.

Overall, steer clear from the vegan cakes and you should be good with...

This is THE place to go for gluten free, vegan, or dairy free baked goods!!! They are all so delicious and it’s so hard to decide what to buy!! I tried the lemon tart which was phenomenal as was the huge lemon cookie! The cinnamon roll was also delicious! In the past I’ve also sampled the pumpkin roll and that was the best pumpkin roll I’ve ever had! Next on my list to try is the fruit pizza! This is such a cute little place with both indoor and outdoor seating and also offers coffee and tea! Get there early because it’s a very popular place and there was a line out the door on Saturday!! Staff and owner are great and make everyone...
