As promised here is the post about one of the most amazing bakeries I have ever been in. 11 years ago I had to go gluten free and thankfully in the past 11 years it has gotten easier to find gluten free food.
To find places when I am traveling I start with Googlemaps and put in my hotel or an address I will be at and then do 'search nearby' with gluten free. So when heading to San Francisco/Oakland to meet TwiKiwi50 I did this and found Mariposa Bakery in both San Francisco AND Oakland. The best part was the Oakland store was literally on the way to TwiKiwi50! Woot!
They are a 100% gluten free bakery with eat in, take out and online ordering available. I will admit that I cried in the middle of the bakery as I stood there and realized there was nothing there I couldn't eat. Simply put it was a great feeling knowing that Mariposa Bakery understands what gluten free is and what it means to people who have to be gluten free. I spent about 45 minutes trying to decide what to buy but in the end I got a pizza for Jaymes805 and I to eat on the night after Napa, some French Baguettes for Jaymes805, a brownie, a bagel, and some items to bring home for my hubby.
Here are my pictures from my stop at Mariposa Bakery:
The pizza was delicious and the baguettes tasted just like the "real" thing. The bagel and brownie were scrumptious and since then I have tried many other items through mail order and everything was great. I highly recommend anything from their bakery.
I wish they would open a bakery on the east coast as their food was/is
AMAZING!! Looking at these pictures makes me miss them so much. I think
it might be time for an order.
Thank you Mariposa Bakery!
