My family and I were very happy with our order. Everything was very fresh and absolutely delicious.

1st time customer and the sourdough bread is amazing!

The sour dough bread and pastries are AMAZING! I had the opportunity to have warm fresh baked bread that is every bit as good as bread with gluten! I could not tell it was a gluten free item! This is the best bread and best pastries I have found in over 6 years! I will now be a regular customer even though I live in Ellerslie…so worth the drive( even with the price of gas )!!!!

I just got home f on picking up my first order and everything looked amazing, even the presentation! I had ordered one each of several items to get a good try of the bakery. On the way home, I couldn't resist and first tried a savory item (I think it was a tart with tomato and cheese and pesto maybe). The pastry had proper layers but was soft and lovely flavoured! I had to go back for more so I ate a cookie with white chocolate and macadamia nuts. I am a soft and chewy cookie fan but this was kinda half way between soft and a hard cookie so I was surprised when I thoroughly enjoyed it! I am really looking forward to the rest of my purchases!

The bagette was still warm when I picked it up which is so rare ~ you almost never can get fresh gluten free products. Was mouth watering tasty! Would highly recommend.

I ordered the danishes for the first time and they were so tasty! You'd never know they were gluten free. So flaky and great flavours.

I had her pastries and they almost made me cry that’s how god they were! So flaky! All the baking I purchased was delicious!

Lauren was able to accommodate my allergies. The sweet and savoury danishes with goat cheese were absolutely delicious and light and flakey. The dairy free blueberry scones were so good and I’m looking forward to also trying the ciabatta buns! Can’t recommend enough.

Ordered sourdough for my retreat wellness space guests and this bread is absolutely savory!!

Best gluten free baked goods I have ever had. Would buy again!

It’s such a blessing to come across this small business that not only has dairy and gluten free options - they use clean ingredients!

My god this bread is amazing. Best I have ever had.👍

Haven't tried everything yet, but the scones are a definite winner!

Picked up ciabatta buns and baguette this morning and they were still warm. The aroma was unbelievable and I couldn't wait to 'attack' them. It was hard to stop eating the baguette once I cut into it - they texture is pure heaven: fluffy with lots of airy holes throughout. Dipped in EVOO and balsamic vinegar is the best treat anyone could ask for. My next order will definitely be double because this one only lasted 6 hours. This bread is amazing and better taste/texture than regular glutinous bread. Absolutely the BEST. Thank you.

I picked up my order this morning and sliced it for the freezer/had a piece as soon as I got home. The original sourdough is delicious! The loaf is a great size compared to others I’ve bought in the past and there is a very nice crust. Can’t wait to try the pain au chocolat next!

Amazing, fresh and delicious gluten free products! I bought the sourdough and croissants… can’t get enough of them!

It had been so many years since I had a croissant! It was incredible! The scones and artisan loaf were amazing! I highly recommend The Flakery!

Everything was delicious, fresh, moist! The packaging is perfect! 💝

Best croissant I've had since Australia!!

Beautiful and delicious gluten free sourdough! The packaging and service were just as wonderful. I also ordered the chocolate chip cookies. So good! I will definitely be a repeat customer and share with my Celiac friends. Thank you Lauren 😊

We purchased the sourdough bread, croissants, cookies and ciabatta buns. My daughter loved them all! The sourdough was still warm. I was so happy my daughter could eat delicious, gluten free food and be excited about it! Thank you so much!! 10/10

First time ordering some baked goods for my celiac daughter. She was so happy with how everything was so fresh, fluffy and like she remembered croissants and chocolate croissants tasting before her diagnosis. Will definitely order again.

I have celiac and have been eating gluten free for 15 years. The only comparable croissant I’ve had in that time was in Montreal (Ave du Parc) and the only comparable bread was in Barcelona. Do yourself a favour and make an order.

Placed my first order and already cant wait to order again, best GF croissants and sourdough bread i have ever tried, amazing taste and texture was very impressed. So glad i came across this great GF shop.

Tried the pain au chocolat and a blueberry scone and they were absolutely delicious. I haven’t had a chocolate croissant in forever and it was delightfully flaky. So excited to order again. Lauren provided great service and was very kind to let me know what she had available for pickup same day! ❤️ Highly recommend

I got a sample of almost all her baked goods, absolutely delicious. The best gf scones of tried in 20 years. Highly recommend.

Tried the regular and chocolate croissants. They are so good. Can’t even tell they are GF. So tasty! My daughter hasn’t had a croissant in 10yrs since she was diagnosed as celiac .

I learned about this home based bakery on the edmonton celiac group I follow on Facebook and I was not disappointed! The bread is beautiful and artesian in quality. It has incredible texture, taste and the quality of the ingredients are unbelievable! My new favourite place to go.

I missed eating croissants since being diagnosed with celiac but I finally satisfied my craving! The croissants are light and flakey and absolutely delicious! I also got the sourdough artisan bread that is the perfect consistency, unlike other gf breads I’ve tasted. I definitely recommend these items and will be returning for more!

I am so thankful to have learnt about The Flakery!!! The croissants and Petits Pains are amazing, fluffy and so flavourful. 100% ordering again and again!

Who needs gluten! My daughter who works at a bakery sampled all my tastes treats and was excited as I was about how great it all tasted. My baker daughter tried the sour dough and said "they nailed it, how did they do it" I cannot express how impressed I am with these gluten free baked goods

Today, I had the biggest surprise of my life when I picked up my baguette and ciabatta buns from this bakery...they were like a soft cloud! I couldn't tell the difference between this bread and glutinous bread - there was no difference. It was crusty on the outside and soft with big holes inside just like a regular ciabatta. This gem of a bakery is worth every penny+. I'm so impressed and happy to be able to eat such high quality delicious gf bread that I can't wait to try the other baked goodies. Thank you for giving us such wonderful gf bread.

best sourdough bread i’ve ever had, it tasted so delicious and didn’t even last a day cause we ate it so fast! The pain da chocolat were absolutely phenomenal and it was so nice to be able to have one after many years. Couldn’t even tell the products were gluten free! will be making another order soon!

I ordered sourdough loaf croissants and chocolate croissants. Bread was crusty a nd moist and delicious. Croissants were crispy and a real treat. Especially the chocolate ones. Yumm.

I ordered the blueberry scones and a dozen buns. Soo good and loved the texture!

My husband is gluten free and we have tried several breads over the years and they all dry out, crumble, fall apart, or taste like cardboard. This sourdough is amazing and Lauren was so helpful. I cannot wait to try making my own loaf with my new starter from Flakery.

Thank you for making the most delightful croissants! They are definitely on thing that I miss since going gluten-free. Will order again!

I just tried the GF croissants from Flakery GF Bakery and I will definitely be ordering again! It’s been over 15 years since I’ve tried a croissant and it was exactly how I remembered. Buttery, flaky and yummy! I can’t wait to try the sourdough bread!

The scones are delicious! The sourdough is dense but not dry. Very good gf options!

This is the best GF sourdough bread I have eaten in years! I love the artisan design on the bread and how soft and moist it is! I will definitely be ordering again! Thanks!

I ordered 2 baguettes and the artisan sourdough bread. Yum! I tried each right away while fresh and then toasted the baguette the next day to eat with burrata, (cooled) tomatoes slowly cooked in olive oil with basil. It was like eating a real baguette! I will be ordering more for sure!

What an absolute treat - I found Lauren of Flakery Bakery Gluten Free Bakery just as she is settling in to her new location in St Albert. I thought my days of the occasional croissant treat were over - and now there is this! I licked every random flaky crumb up off the plate.😉

I purchased 8 pain O chocolate they were amazing. Light any flakey. Would never know they were Gluten Free!

The bread was very moist and did not fall apart.

My son liked the gluten free sourdough bread but absolutely loved the gluten free cinnamon raisin bread. Definitely will order again

I live with two celiac family members and noticed Lauren’s ad on Facebook. We decided to give it a try. Her bread is excellent. The size of the loafs are very generous and they look artisanal. We live in the university area and Lauren arranged for us to pick them up in Grandin (downtown area) which was so convenient. We would definitely order this bread again and look forward to trying some of her other products!

Ordered a sourdough loaf and croissants, both were great. Haven’t had a croissant in years and it was the flakey experience I’d hoped for. I do wish smaller quantities were available (half loaf, 1 or 2 croissants) as I’m just one person, but I understand the challenges with that. Will definitely order again!

Lauren's croissant are a marvel. Blissfully buttery, crispy and delicious! And her Artisan sourdough loaf is great on it's own and particularly scrumptious toasted. Run, don't walk to make your order now! You can't go wrong with Lauren's line up of gluten free baking.

I am excited about this bread, the flavor is so good! Baked just right. 10/10.

It’s nice to have someone close to home that could satisfy my sweet tooth!

I love this bread, I usually get one sourdough and one regular bread, the whole grain one. I tried the croissants one and they were fantastic too. Highly recommend

These are the best GF croissants I've had the pleasure of enjoying. I never in my wildest dreams thought I could eat croissants again - these are excellent! They were light and flakey. Will definitely buy them again. Thank you.

So excited to find this! Wonderful sellar, great communication. Good price, a touch dry even though I ate it right away, then frozen the rest.

Very pleased! I fed the starter twice before using (I needed time to gather the correct ingredients), and it made a beautiful loaf. "This tastes just like bread!" -my GF daughter

The loaf I bought was a work of art. It was almost too pretty to eat. When I picked up my order it was still warm from baking. I couldn’t wait until I got home to try some. It did not disappoint! It was flavourful and delicious. For the first time since developing my gluten allergy two years ago I felt like I was eating real bread. It’s soft and perfect. Not to sweet and perfectly seasoned. I’ve searched high and low for a croissant for two years and had been met with disappointment until now. It’s flaky and crunchy on the outside and perfect on the inside. You can see the layering and the taste was amazing. I had my husband try it who is able to eat gluten and said it tasted to good to be true and I agree. 10 out of 10 recommend. Will order again.

Lauren’s gluten free sourdough is not only delicious, but looks stunning with the floral designs she imprints!

I haven't been able to have wheat in so long but gluten-free options are usually so expensive and so disappointing that it hasn't been worth it to even keep any in the house. Not anymore!! I usually get a loaf of sourdough a week from Lauren, and it has been a revelation to have sandwiches that actually taste good again. The designs on the bread are gorgeous, you can feel the love & care in each one, and the taste and texture are phenomenal. You don't even need to toast the bread before eating it!! Unheard of! I also never thought that croissants could be made gluten-free, but these ones are really fantastic. One of them microwaved and sliced in half made for the best little avocado sandwiches! The pain au chocolat are also just lovely!

Such a beautiful, fresh loaf—crispy crust, lovely shape, and ready the very next day! I hadn’t had real bread in so long, and this was such a treat. Grateful for the care and service that went into it—thank you!

Absolutely wonderful. Lovely lady and the best gluten free breads I have ever eaten.

I had the pain au chocolat and they were amazing! Flaky, sweet, and so addictive!
