Gluten free in Tacoma WA area

While visiting relatives in Tacoma recently we found some great sources for gluten-free goodies:

Corina Bakery & Bistro
510 6th Av
Tacoma WA
253 627-5070
www.corinabakery.com

Without a doubt the best gluten free dessert I've ever had: a tall, raspberry filled cake with butter cream frosting. So rich it took me two nights to finish one piece!

GF Joe's Market
5737 Littlerock Rd. SW Ste. 103
Tumwater WA
360 628-8010


A little store chock full with gluten-free products, some of which I've never seen before. They will soon begin online ordering. Owner Joe has Celiac so he knows his stuff.

Garlic Jim's Famous Gourmet Pizza
3602 6th Av. Ste 103
Tacoma WA
253 286-5467


Their GF Nutty Chipolte pizza was to die for! "Zesty chipotle pesto is topped with spicy Italian sausage, pepperoni, red onions, tomatoes and cashews." Too, too good! Made me feel normal.

And of course, a home-cooked, GF dinners made by my wonderful daughter-in-law were fabulous, too.
