Wholesome Bakery’s owner Mandy Harper has been keeping a slew of gluten-free and vegan baked goods coming since 2018. The pies and cakes here are well worth the lines that often form outside. Harper is a descendant of the Cheyenne and Arapaho peoples, so if there’s any part of you pining to support Indigenous businesses Wholesome Bakery could fit the bill. New items on the line-up include both a Basque and Neapolitan cheesecake and the apple frangipane tart.

Tobias Patella’s cafe is bringing animal-less heat to the Bayview. Everything here is gluten-free and vegan including rainbow doughnuts, pumpkin bread, and cheesecakes galore. This shop also serves savory items including chicken and waffles, eggs and bacon, and hardy sandwiches.

The custom cakes at Ziba Treats can be made with just about any allergen in mind, which absolutely includes gluten-free and vegan. Hosna Tavakoli’s cakes are ideal for Persian New Year, sure, but also for the holidays, a proper dinner party, and even an engagement. Since she’s yet to open a customer-facing permanent location, place an order online. Not all her cakes are made gluten-free, so be mindful of the possibility of cross-contamination.

This Ferry Building business is entirely gluten-free, but not all the items are vegan. A few that fit the bill of being both include the Viennese tea cookies, banana muffins, penguinos, baguettes, and more depending on the season. The business’ website has a feature to filter out various allergens, which is super handy.

Jane the Baker has a plethora of wonderful spots, but there’s something special about the Tenderloin location. Another spot where most everything is not gluten-free and vegan, but keep an eye out for the gluten-free snickerdoodles, chocolate chip cookies, and banana bread — all for $4.25 or less. 

Jessica Burnley worked through Slanted Door, RN74, and Out the Door before designing (maybe) the Bay’s only vegan croissant currently for sale. Now, Burnley’s items are not all gluten-free; but a pot de creme trifle she made for Valentine’s Day this year happened to be. If you DM her on Instagram — the same account you’ll need to follow to see where she’ll pop up next — she can whip up something gluten-free for an event or order. Plus, the odds are she’ll be selling her goodies at Deathless Coffee on Market Street in no time.
