Avellino Gluten Free Bakery

Really? Last year I went into this place looking for GF birthday cakes for my grandchildren. There were bread cookies, baked at a different location according to the labels, sparsely kept on shelves in the store.I asked if they made cakes. The shopkeeper said yes but that the baker wasn't in that day it would take a few days to make the cake so I said I'm willing to wait and offered a deposit. He declined the deposit and was told I should come back in a few days to place the order. A few days later. The same shopkeeper again declined my order. The reason was that the baker didn't return to the store as planned and I had to wait again. Since this was important to me I came back a 3rd time a couple of weeks later and this time the shopkeeper seemed annoyed and I was told it was a supply issue. Needless to say I never went back. And I think that was the point.

I've been thinking about going here for a long time and finally made it! I was rewarded with delicious muffins and bread and a lovely owner. Definitely check them out.

Visited for the first time yesterday. Spoke with the proprietor and he was telling me the bakery has been there for 18 years but after he took ownership of it, he made it a gluten free bakery 4 years ago. A little pricey, but hey!, everything these days (11/30/22) are pricey. But to be able to eat a real sandwich on bread, instead of Lettuce Wraps, which fall apart too easily, is a delectable treat that unless you can't eat wheat products, you have no idea what I'm talking about. LOL That I'd willingly pay 10 bucks a loaf for bread ? I can enjoy again! I bought a whole grain loaf and a sourdough loaf, scrumptious hot out of the toaster with lots of butter slathered over the top! If gluten free treats are what you're craving they have plenty selections to choose from. Cookies, bars, colorful pastries... I should have snagged a photo or two, but if you're curious, I'd recommend dropping by. Conveniently located on the NE corner of Alabama and Cornwall in Bellingham, WA. You won't be disappointed! ?

First time up in Bellingham was thrilled to find such a great gluten-free bakery! The carrot cake pumpkin muffins were EXCELLENT! We also super enjoyed the huge maple blondie (pic of what was left by the time we remembered to take a photo), rainbow sprinkle donut lemon bar. Our least favorite was the apple danish, but I don’t think you can really go wrong here!
