Great Bakery

I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays, and has a wonderful New Year! We have just returned from our holiday trip out west. I was fortunate to have two holiday trips in 2009 – one south for Thanksgiving, one west for Christmas – and I’m still unpacking and processing. 2010 is off to a good start; I’m very much looking forward to this year and all it will bring, including new discoveries.

One recent discovery is the Twisted Bakery, a gluten-free operation located in Dickinson, N.D. A family friend first made us aware of it and sent us some items. Are we glad she did!



I’ve sampled a couple of the bakery’s products now and wholeheartedly recommend it. The Gluten Free White Bread & Bun Mix literally is the best of any I have tried to date. The mix is easy to use, and the resulting bread not only has a good flavor and texture, it doesn’t need to be toasted. At all. I finally have enjoyed a good sandwich again.

Also, for those who are gluten-free and have missed family favorites like dumplings, wait no longer: The bakery offers a Gluten Free Noodle/Dumpling Mix. We used the mix to make dumplings for soup – they were excellent. When eating the soup, it was as if I had returned to my childhood.

There are a number of its other products I’m planning to try as well. The Twisted Bakery does ship, and also is stocked in some retailers. Be sure to check out its website for additional information.
