Checked out Two Cafe and Boutique today and came away with an Americano and a fresh made Organic Egg Scramble with gf toast!

Check out their site for the full menu. You’ll see consideration made for allergens but be advised that this is not a dedicated gluten free establishment. That being said, they were very knowledgeable and considerate to my questions.

They also have available prepackaged baked goods from a dedicated gf kitchen in Chagrin Falls, OH.

About Two Cafe & Boutique

The Two Foundation was started in 2013 to bridge the gap that exists between high school or a sheltered workshop and community employment for individuals with exceptionalities. 

The Two Foundation brings awareness to the community about how to celebrate diversity, and how to focus on an individual’s strengths. We believe in full integration of the local workforce.

The starting point is our training center: The Two Café and Boutique. The Two Café and Boutique is more than a local farm – to – fork café and coffee shop, we exist to provide real work experience and employment for individuals with exceptionalities in a fully integrated setting.

The cafe is not only a place you can count on for healthy, and local food. It is a place where you can truly make a difference in the world!

Located in historic downtown Willoughby the market carries a variety of locally sourced and produced gluten-free snacks and food products. Many of the items have been available via NEOhio’s rockin’ farm market vendors, some are available at local grocers but in this shop they are all easily identified and available.

The shop will also be creating events and lectures for informing the public on critical health and wellness issues including nutrition workshops.

Gluten Free Menu

From the Cafe Piccolo webpage: “Cafe Piccolo is located in Avon, OH and is the sister restaurant to Piccolo Italian Restaurant in Mayfield Heights, owned and operated by Chef Christopher Licht.”

A share from Judy:

Knowledgeable staff and kitchen. Specific gluten free entrees, gluten free pizza and bread with dinner, gluten free desserts. I had the gluten free pasta with mushroom cream sauce, pancetta, and prosciutto. It was very good.

NOTE: The Avon location is reported closed.

Nature’s Oasis bills itself as a “Convenience Market & Cafe”.

On a recent visit to the Shaker location I enjoyed a stroll around the small collection of fresh produce and a variety of groceries, many of them gluten free.

Then I ordered from the cafe menu. So many choices. Bagel sandwiches, waffles, GF muffins and cookies. And coffee.

I tried the GF bagel with bacon, egg whites, and cheese and sat in the light filled space where others were eating, meeting and working.

Nothing Bundt Cakes

South Euclid, Avon, Canton

First the bad news: Nothing Bundt Cakes makes beautiful (mostly) gluten filled cakes.

The (maybe) good news is that “gluten-free flavor is available at select bakeries”.

This bakery makes only bundt cakes in a variety of sizes. There were a number of flavors on display, one of which was gluten free chocolate chip.

The counter clerk shared a binder with cake ingredients and assured me that separate pans and utensils are used in preparation.

The “Bundtlet” was a large muffin size, moist and dotted with mini chocolate chips. It was topped with their signature cream cheese frosting. A truly decadent treat.

Two sizes are available gluten free. The “Bundlet” was $5 (50 cents more than the gluten filled options) and 8 inch for $25 ($3 more). The clerk said that cakes are available with 20 minutes notice.

I visited the South Euclid store located on the North side of Cedar Center – 13949 Cedar Rd, South Euclid, OH 44118.

Other nearby stores are in Avon (35925 Detroit Rd, Avon, OH 44011) and Canton (4468 Belden Village St NW, Canton, OH 44718). They may have the gluten free cakes.
