| We are newly gluten free. We had some baked goods from a bakery in Baltimore at Lilit Cafe and were not impressed. Has anyone had stuff from Freedom who could let me know if it is worth it to drive 60+ minutes. Thanks! |

Sticky Fingers does GF
are you doing it by choice or b/c of an allergy or celiac disease? |

| OP here. We think dc has a gluten sensitivity. Only way to find out is to try to eliminate gluten. Thanks -- I'll look into Sticky Fingers. |

| I have been to Freedom. The cookies and eclairs were very good, the sandwich bread was not as good as Udi's. I would absolutely go by if you in the vicinity, but I'm not sure what you need that is worth the long drive. |

FYI, for celiac disease, you need to be eating wheat, etc when you get the blood test so it is accurate. Not sure re: sensitivity.
Also, WF, Moms sells Rudi's GF bread, as well as packaged GF cookies. Glutino pretzels are great and most grocery stores carry them now. a lot of restaurants have GF menus--Olive Garden, PF Changs |

| Thanks, pp. Dc was tested for celiac while still on gluten. Dc doesn't have celiac but has a lot of symptoms of gluten intolerance. Nutritionist recommended going gluten free to see if symptoms abate and pediatrician was fine with dc eliminating gluten. |

| Op again. There is an article in this month's Washingtonian about a woman who has gluten sensitivity/intolerance and not celiac. |

| Thanks, 10:17 and everyone. I've bought a lot from WF. I was just wondering if that bakery (Freedom) was so great that it warranted a stop for a special treat for dc. From what I've heard, it doesn't sound like it. |

| I second Sticky Fingers. They're GF stuff is delicious. Praline also has GF cakes, pralines, and meringues. |
