Amazing Gluten (& corn free!!) Bakery! Safe for celiac disease, barring a few items made with gf oats, they are happy to go over what is safe for your allergy. The best baked goods I've had since needing to have safe for celiac gluten free and corn free. Donuts are a standout treat.

I ordered a cake from Violette for my boyfriend's birthday and it was great! We had a bunch of gluten-intolerant guests at the party so it was great to be able to order a cake that everyone could eat. For a GF cake it was great! It was also decorated so beautifully, and they were very helpful when I needed to change my pickup date. They also sell delicious cookies and other GF pastries. Highly recommend! Side note--I actually am a cyclist who lives in Cambridge 😂 I don't know what is going on with the other reviews (whether there is a cabal of angry cyclists or whether the owner has a vendetta against cyclists... who knows). I am a fan of more bike lanes in Cambridge but I don't think that has anything to do with the quality of the bakery. I only know that the GF stuff here is great so that's why I am leaving a positive review!

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

We are trialing them, and are very close, but not there yet! Hopefully soon. We will post when we have them. Thanks for asking.

Do they offer keto products?

Keto chocolate macadamia cookies and keto cheese cake. Both sweetened with a monkfruit blend.

Hi, I'm looking for lemon squares and hoping you can make them for me. Also, they are for a friend who shouldn't have sugar -- so can you make them with an alternative like splenda or something suitable? I'm looking for a baker's dozen. Thank you

Hi we have lemon squares on our menu but they are made w organic sugar. We can’t make them with alternative sugar, sorry. It takes sometimes months to trial new recipes. Sugar is a liquid in baking. Alternative sugars are not. Ours are delicious so if she can have sugar you can come to window and purchase one to see if she likes it. They are on the tart side. Hope this helps!

My husband is totally dairy free cakes and I am trying to get a birthday cake for him delivered Is this possible

Thanks Martha for answering. We are not yet geared up for delivery. We are waiting to see how many people are quarantined and they will have first priority since they can't leave their homes even for curbside pick up. Others can get drive-up curb side pick up starting on Weds, if they've ordered and paid at least 24 hrs in advance. I can tell you how people used to get delivery from us, and you'd have to decide for yourself whether this is a good idea. For the past couple years our customers have called the regular Uber or Lyft and designated our address as pick up point. We bring order out to car when they call you and you call us that they are here. Then on the other end you must also meet them at the car. We've had a number of customers do this even from overseas, as it is the most economical way to get delivery. Only once in 3-4 years has a driver refused to take the order. Home this info helps. Yes we have gluten free , dairy free cake options! Stay safe!

Are any of your GF items also Keto friendly? No sugar? do you use almond or coconut flour?

Violette Gluten Free Bakery | Sep 13, 2019

Hi Susan, i'm not a Keto expert, but here is what we have in line with what you are asking: 1. no sugar added chocolate hazelnut tart. Has only sugar from the 70% chocolate used in the filling. 2. No sugar added Oatmeal date cookies (sweetness comes from dates), 3. orange almond cake, contains sugar and almond flour. 4. flourless peanut butter cookies (contains sugar). 5. French macarons (contains almond flour and sugar) 6. flourless chocolate cake and cupcakes (contains no flour, contains sugar). Hope this helps!

do you deliver to local schools, I have gluten free grandaughter there and would like to send her some good bread??

Violette Gluten Free Bakery | Sep 13, 2019

Hi, We do not deliver. Most of our customers call one of the delivery services like postmates or Rabbit. Or they call an uber driver (not uber eats) to pick up and deliver. Hope this helps.

Any sugar free options for same day pickup?

Bp Pb | Sep 13, 2018
Violette Gluten Free Bakery | Sep 13, 2019

yes, we have a no sugar added chocolate hazelnut tartlet. It is made with 70% organic dark chocolate, so there is some sugar in the chocolate but we don't add any additional sugar when making the tart. We also sometimes have oatmeal date cookies with no added sugar.

Contact them directly. This service asks customers, not owners. They are wonderful and the best bakery I've seen of any type.
