Helping Hands Bakery

[Joyce Paige]

Recently I was contacted by someone on Twitter that had a gluten-free bakery. While there is nothing unusual about that, they also had a mission that was slightly different and I think worth mentioning.

 

Bridget Lane is the mother of three sons with autism and she wanted to make a difference in their lives and the lives of others.  She wanted to create a place that would always provide jobs for her sons and others like them.  Her bakery hires and trains people with special needs.

 

I received several products from them and one of my favorites was their snickerdoodle bites. I didn’t think I liked snicker doodles until I tried theirs.

 

Another one we really liked was their monster bites. They have a little bit of everything in them.

 

I also tried their Boulder Bar, their Pumpkin Tea Cake and their Papa’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Bar. I think you’ll enjoy them all.

 

We gobbled them all up pretty quickly.

 

These would make great gifts for the gluten-free people on your list for the holidays too!

 

Her products are available online, at some Whole Foods Markets and other specialty stores.  I do wish they were all milk/casein-free too as many autistic children do better on a gluten-free / casein-free diet.

Thanks so much, Joyce! So happy that you enjoyed our gluten free goodies. Hope you have a wonderful holiday!
