Honey Haven Baking Co. — Restaurant in Marquette

I stumbled in to this little shop because their cute sun catcher in the window caught my eye. I was hoping to buy one not really knowing if they sold them or not. They don’t sell them, but as I looked around the place was decorated super cute and the girl at the counter was very pleasant. So I didn’t want to leave without buying something! I quickly browsed over what they had and decided on a chocolate chip cookie sandwich. To my surprise when I got home with it and took a bite it was so delicious! I had noticed the sign outside that said “gluten free dairy free..” and what not but after biting in to this I figure they must offer regular baked goods too! The flavor and texture isn’t like anything I’ve had that has been for anyone with allergies. I had my daughter taste it and she was shocked when I told her after the fact that it was gluten free.

The crumb was lacking, it almost reminded me more of coffee cake than sourdough. While it did have a hint of the sour dough smell it didn't have the taste, while the taste wasn't decent all the other parts that make up what I would expect from a sour dough loaf of bread...

I stopped here on a whim on my way home from a vacation to the UP, and I am so glad I did!! I bought the sourdough bread, four muffins, a cupcake, garlic breadsticks and a sandwich, and everything was OUTSTANDING. I have a lot of allergies, and everything here was completely safe for me to eat! The staff was so helpful and kind, and my fiance (who’s a big gluten eater) swore that they couldn’t even tell the cupcakes or muffins were gluten/dairy free. I can’t wait to...
