These little guys are not Paleo but they ARE egg, gluten, nut, and dairy free which makes them a nice cheat cupcake especially if you are highly allergic. I tried out the red velvet ones a few weeks ago and surprisingly they were not too bad. It certainly was not a cupcake from Sprinkles BUT a nice alternative if you want to your feed your craving without killing your digestive track. What makes them even better is they are home baked out of MILPITAS! The executive pastry chef Amanda Macdessi founded this allergy friendly patisserie after her husband was diagnosed with Celiac disease (a very sever gluten allergy affecting about 1% of the total population). She began baking gluten free goodies for him and now is sharing her treats with others. Her home based bakery is called “Let them eat” and takes orders for a variety of cakes. It’s another great way to support a local business and promote health conscious foods. Enjoy!
