flour girl gluten-free desserts.
October 4, 2011
Get ready local readers, there’s a delicious baker in town!
Flour Girl is a one-woman sweet shop who cranks out delicious gluten-free (and conventional, for the record) cakes, cupcakes and cookies. From the website:
“Using the highest quality, locally produced organic ingredients, the focus is on flavor…you won’t find any fake, fancy schmancy goo here! And in the interest of keeping it local and keeping the carbon footprint small, the girl only delivers in Healdsburg…by bike!”
On one of our daily quests for a delicious mid-day pick-me-up, we discovered a mason jar filled with a half-dozen gluten-free chocolate chip cookies at nearby Shelton’s Natural Foods, and just couldn’t resist. Good thing, because these cookies were pretty much perfect. Moist, chewy, a dense crumb, perfect chocolate chip-to-cookie ratio …everything we look for in a solid cookie.
Flour Girl offers other assorted gluten-free desserts, too, including lemon coconut cupcakes, chocolate cupcakes & Chinese 5-spice macarons with salted caramel filling. If you’re in the Healdsburg, Calif. area, don’t wait a minute longer. Run to Shelton’s for a luck-of-the-draw dessert (look on the deli case for assorted desserts or in the pastries bin at the end of the checkstands for single cookies) or contact The Girl for orders.
