    Gluten free vanilla cake with mixed berry filling
    Alexandra G.

    Gluten free desserts are so hard to find that are delicious, affordable, and actually safe to eat from cross contamination for someone with celiac disease. I'm so, so glad to have stumbled upon Bare Bakery. They made my birthday cake (Vanilla cake with mixed berry filling) and it was heavenly! The cake was moist, soft, and tasted great as leftovers when I'm so used to gluten free desserts crumbling or hardening up the next day. All of their other treats and delicacies look amazing too, and I can't wait to try more items off the menu soon!

    Today's brownie cake - with Kelly's frosting message:). It is an ordinary day - that is now extraordinary:)

    Bare Bakery has the most delicious baked goods!! I tried some of their brownies years ago. OMG - they were fantastic! They are gluten and dairy free. I was trying to cut down/eliminate refined sugar and many of their offerings are without these two ingredients also. Through the years, my husband, daughter, and now son-in-law have their favorite bare bakery goods. We have continued our love affair with the brownies, and added the raspberry vanilla ("wedding") cake (my husband's favorite), lemon and honey cake (my favorite), chocolate chip cookie cake (my daughter's favorite and the mini cakes - my son-in-law's favorite. These cookies and cakes have never disappointed. The are consistently delicious and up our happiness level when one of these delicious cakes are on our table (or counter:).

    Chocolate Pecan

    I'd been following the bakery on social media and needed a gf/v dessert for Thanksgiving. I ordered a chocolate pecan pie that was still warm when it was given to me! It was divine. Even the non-GF folks loved it! They have a very diverse menu and excited about trying some other pies, cakes and cookies. I understand they are at a few farmers markets. I picked mine up at the new location that's a little out of my way but worth the drive. Loved the drive up system for Covid purposes. It was easy to find and no wait. Also I had some confusion about my confirmation (user error) and owner was very responsive and helpful.

    September 2020 Cake Tasting Box. Flavors are Spice Cake, Italian Cream Cake, Chocolate Cake, Vanilla Cake.

    Sign up for their monthly newsletters, you will receive information on their interesting monthly tasting box! I ordered a cake tasting box back in September, and it was wonderful. We picked it up at the shop, and the box was wrapped in a cute bow, it looked so cute and fancy. Each box comes with four flavors, and you get two of each flavor, so a total of 8 mini cakes. The box was $35. It is a perfect little cake tasting box for a picnic, date night, a small friends/family tea party, or of course treats for just yourself. All of their cakes are dairy free and paleo, I wish it could be egg free too. The cake flavors we tried were: Spice Cake/Apple Jam/Vanilla Frosting (NF) Italian Cream Cake/Honey Vanilla Frosting Chocolate Cake/Espresso Frosting (NF) Vanilla Cake/Chai Spiced Vanilla Frosting (NF) Each cake was moist and flavorful, perfectly sized to satisfy your sweet tooth without overindulging yourself.

    We ordered 2 the chocolate was gluten free!

    Definitely recommend for gluten free cake! It's so hard to find a gluten free option, this one actually tasted amazing.

    Gluten free vegan cake
    Sophia G.

    I have a very "difficult" family. I'm plant based, my sisters gluten free, and another family is allergic to peas. Finding a bakery that fits ALL of our diets is hard. Really hard. Making special occasions even harder. Then I stumbled upon Bare Bakery. So far it's the only place I know of in Houston that can cater to everyone in my family. Most places can serve one of us but not the other. The owner is super nice and works with you when needed. The cake was amazing. My only concern was getting their contact information was really hard. I had to contact them maybe three different ways and in the end she ended up messaging me. I would suggest posting your number somewhere. It took too much work to find your contact information for something I felt was urgent. It would be very helpful especially with the hours the business runs. A number where customers can contact you would be fantastic. Even if posted on the receipt. Other than that everything worked out perfectly. Thank you for the amazing cake!

    Custom cake order (Italian cream with espresso frosting)

    Amazing desserts & friendly staff! I stopped eating dairy & gluten years ago, so it's nice to have the option of getting sweets from somewhere when the craving hits. We ordered a custom cake (Italian cream with espresso frosting) and not only was it beautiful, it also tasted phenomenal. We'll definitely be ordering more in the future!!

    Ask the Community - Bare Bakery

    Do you offer a vegan cake that does not use almond or coconut flour? Looking for vegan and treenut free option?

    Sorry, but all of our current products contain either almond or coconut.

    Hi! Are you able to accommodate a severe peanut and tree nut allergy?

    Since we use almond flour in almost all of our products, we do not have dedicated nut-free equipment and so there is a chance of cross contamination.

    So, if no "refined sugar", then what? Splenda?

    Honey and maple syrup, I believe

    Is this a special order only business or do you have a bakery store front or farmers market attendance?

    Bare bakery has been at the Memorial Villages & Urban Harvest markets but right now is taking a break due to supply chain issue & general safety. Per the current newsletter, items are still available at retail partners:… Read more

    Do you use palm oil in vegan baked goods?

    We do! A sustainably sourced palm shortening from Healthy Traditions.

    I have come here before and one of my favorite places for a brownie sundae! (Brownie Batter Blowout…read moreSundae). Service was overall good (weekends this place can get packed). Restaurant is a cute dessert place and fun for post dinner activities. I ordered a brownie sundae with vanilla ice cream and they mixed in hot fudge which made it extra rich and good. The brownies (World's Best Brownie) were soft and gooey. I ordered milk too (highly recommend) to balance the richness!

    I drove all the way to the store today only to find out all the Devil Wears Prada cookies were sold…read moreout. I asked the cashier if I could order the cookies for pickup at a later date and he thought for a few seconds and said no. He said If the cookies are not in stock they can not be ordered which makes absolutely no sense. Clearly the guy was just guessing instead of taking the time to ask but instead of arguing I just left. Of course I get home and the cookies CAN in fact be ordered from the website. I needed 20 of them which would have been well over $100 but just because the cashier was cavalier and wanted to guess instead of actually make the business money I ordered Tiff Treats Prada cookie instead. Their employees are not knowlegable and surely dont care about your time or money.

They also clearly label gluten-free items, and there's a nice assortment of snacks available to order as well. Parking was easy thanks to a large parking lot, and the space was clean and calm overall. Definitely a comfortable spot to hang out.. we'd happily come back.
