Food for Good Thought

Finally baked the loaf of bread from the frozen dough I bought there. AMAZING. Chewy and delicious! Highly recommended.

The owner is incredibly nice and the staff are all very helpful. The selection is a little limited on first glance, but they will custom prepare you a variety of things. The prices are all extraordinarily reasonable given that this is a specialty gluten-​free shop. Delicious, too. I’m eager to return.

First off, let me assure you that this isn’t the work of anti-​gluten activists. I pride myself on the ability to eat whatever I choose. That being said, I am kicking myself for not wandering into this place earlier.
Driving down High st., the bakery looks like a nondescript cornflower blue house. Inside, however, one is greeted with aromatic and heavenly scents of cinnamon and nutmeg, walking around in the storefront gives one the impression that someone spent their whole life’s savings to show the world how delicious their recipes are. Fortunately, it was not in vain.
The first thing I had was the peanut butter cookie, which contains only peanut butter, sugar, and eggs. From those three simple ingredients came the chewiest, sweetest, and savoriest peanut butter cookie I have ever had, with a solid crumb structure and even golden-​brown color. The brownies were also rich and gooey, with a rich chocolate flavor that made me go back for a second and third one.
They also carry scones and muffins as well, but since they were in cranberry and orange flavors, I wasn’t to eager to try them out – sweets are sweets, not vessels for secret fruit delivery. And in addition to pastries, Food for Good Thought also sells soaps and candles which I didn’t have the chance to try yet; I’ll edit this when I get around to it.
This bakery has the best gluten-​free cookies and brownies I’ve ever had, hands down. Eating here does not feel like a compromise and furthermore makes me question everything that I know about what makes a good cookie… good. If you like cookies, brownies, require a gluten-​free diet, or enjoy being a cookie hipster, then drag yourself out there and start telling your friends you were eating gluten-​free cookies before it was cool.

SO glad I finally made it here!
I have seen their goodies sold at markets and at Celebrate local, but held off to see what it is all about and I prefer to buy directly.
The hours are a bit wacky, thursday till sunday 12−4pm
Now I know why, the train and employ individuals with autism and I’m assuming school aged.
They support a local cause and the money is donated, which just gives you a good feeling!
It is in a regular house where you go in the driveway and park in the back, kind of odd but they have a sign and it said open so we went!
I have tried several gluten free bakerys and liked them more or less…
This is definetly my new winner!
Not being a fan of pattycake and even the others all taste a bit… off, Food for Good Thought has the MOST AMAZING treats I have had!
I admit to being a bit skeptical at first and caould kick myself in the butt for only getting the cranberry oatmeal cookie and the pecan pie.
Oh well, I have a feeling I will be back soon to make up for it!
The oatmeal cookie I figured to be a safe bet and not really needing much else but oats and BOY was it yummy!
Best oatmeal cookie ever and the cranberry a juicy addition!
The pecan pie also YUMMMMMY!
The crust reminded me of a linzer torte crust from back in Germany which is made out of ground hazelnuts and no flour, this was very similar, very different from your run of the mill pie crust which I am not a fan of anyways.
The pecan, nice and crunchy, sugary, delicious!
Support a great cause and stop by here on the weekend, you will not be disspointed!
The prices are also way better than at pattycake!
