I have been a frequent customer of heavenly hands. I’ve tried their Oreo mousse (which I love and hope they bring back soon!), rice crispy treats, cookies, lemon bars, cakes, and now finally pop tarts!

Definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a delicious sweet treat in the New Orleans area, gluten...
Read moreMy favorite gluten free bakery! I have been to gluten free bakeries in New York, Italy, London etc, nothing compares to Heavenly Hands Bakery in Metairie. This bakery is 100% safe for celiacs. My friends (non gf) actually enjoy the gluten free goodies I bring home from here (which says a lot, most non gluten free people think it's all disgusting). Also, everyone there is so kind and friendly....
