Stopped into this hidden treasure in Normal Heights to buy a birthday gift and boy did I fall in LOVE with EVERYTHING. The shop has a cute aray of colors and Lee whom I assume is the owner was so AMAZING!! She explained the desserts, the ingredients, and offered us a sample. Her personality and spirit were definitely what you expect, especially since when you look at the art work on the walls and the vibe of the store. She was PERFECT!! She engaged with my 8yr old who acts 60yrs old talking about unicorns. Lee was nice enough to place the items I purchased which were the Cacao Now, Mustang Bar, Key Lime Mini Hug Cake, Triple Berry Mini Hug Cake, in a custom bag and She tied a bow on the top. Since it was a birthday gift it was PERFECT. Upon leaving the store Lee gave us the punch card for when we return. My sister in law who's vegetarian ABSOULUTLEY LOVED her desserts and said she will be checking it out in the future. Thanks Lee for your recommendations and for being an overall SWEETHEART..People miss the concept of being human and nice. If your looking for AMAZING vegan, gluten free, desserts THIS IS THE PLACE. Swing by and get you something good. I promise you won't be...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have celiac disease, so I was excited when my family brought me to Paleo Treats while I was visiting the area. I noticed that their vinyl sign hanging over the counter had the FDA gluten-free certification. It's a habit of mine to inquire about the GF nature of anything I put in my mouth because of some justifiable paranoia. The person at the counter informed me that yes, everything is safe, they have people come in all the time who are gluten free, etc. However, they are no longer certified because of the cost of the certification. For me, that's not necessarily a deal-breaker, but it makes me a little wary. I purchased a couple things, then left.
I ate the ice cream from the freezer just after leaving, and it was good. I didn't pay close attention to the label, but I felt fine afterwards, meaning there wasn't any gluten in it.
When I examined the prepackaged food I purchased a little more closely, I noticed that it had been prepared in a facility that also processes wheat. Typically, that's a red flag. Maybe it was safe, maybe it wasn't. Unfortunately for people like me, it's not worth the risk to take that gamble so I threw it away and likely won't be...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI had a wedding coming up and was looking for a cake and some bread loaves that would fit one of my guestās allergies. I found this place and one of the first things I loved was they listed all the ingredients of each of their products on a stand outside the store. I came across the Triple Berry Cake and the Baller Bread which fit the parameters. Lee was especially helpful and kind, working with me to set up the order ahead of time. I unfortunately donāt have pictures but I will say the images on the website and in store match exactly what you get. But most of all, thank you guys so much for providing delicious allergy free options. My guest was ecstatic when I surprised them with the cake and bread and it was all devoured quickly! Even in this day and age it can be tricky to find exciting options for people with extensive allergies and your team truly delivered. One of my guests even went as far as to say they enjoyed your cake more than my wedding cake! The...
