Snotty? really?? I had quite the opposite experience. It was a Saturday afternoon and my allergic family and I were on our way home from the market. I yelped allergy free bakeries and restaurants and this one stood out to me and it was on the way home so we stopped by. There were a few customers waiting for their orders inside the clean shop. It was a relaxed vibe and the lady greeted me cheerfully as I studied the ingredients on the flags of their cupcakes and cookies. I had a list of avoids so I asked her what I could get for soy free, wheat free, egg free, and dairy free. it is dang near impossible for me to find anything in a store that are free of the top 8 allergy offenders. She told me they usually they have a variety of cupcakes that would be ok for me, but today they had a few things with soy lecithin at best. I picked up a chocolate chip vegan cookie for my three year old to see how she likes their taste. She scarfed half of it down… she loved it! she only ate half because it is a big cookie. I had a little crumb that did not have choco chips (it has soy lecithin) and it was good!! it was really hard to find a piece without chocolate… they are not stingy with it! the lady behind the counter was really nice and we got to talking about our kids with food allergies. She suggested i come back wednesday when they have the most vegan products. i had to call back later because my husband had a bite of the other half and said he tasted peanut butter. Chris answered the phone and reassured me his facility is peanut free. Whew. three year old has a severe peanut allergy! He was very nice and polite :) definitely going back wednesday! they also have savory items too… hope they have lunch for me as well as dessert when i get there wednesday!!

I did a google search for Gluten Free "near me". Liberated Baking popped up and it was only 1/2 mile away from where I was working that day. That was two months ago...they now know me by first name when I call and order or when I pop in the door! Their yeast dough breads and quick/sweet breads are hands down the best in the US! Ive been to many across the US, yes even the Food Network champion establishments but none of them come as close to the gluten bread textures and tastes as what they are doing here. Seriously, if you dont try one of their dinner rolls you have not begun to live again after removing gluten. Yes, it can be done, you can eat real bread again or least feel like you are eating the bread you ate before the diagnosis! Try their take home and bake Chicken Pot Pies! I am able to eat dairy so I order the regular...you should smell the aroma coming from the kitchen as they bake...OMG!! Ive gained 10 pounds since finding this little piece of food nirvana ! :)

I am a celiac who cannot eat soy, dairy or gluten. I used to not do well with rice flour either, but I have eaten here several times and had absolutely no problems (their flour blends all have some form of rice flour). They have vegan options and the only products that have soy is the dairy-free chocolate they use. The dairy-free butter they use is Earth Balance and it contains no soy. This is a fantastic place and the food is wonderful, I highly recommend it to anyone, whether you can have gluten or not. I have gone there with friends and family who do not have problems with gluten and they enjoyed it as well. They also make birthday cakes, and they arent terribly pricey. The employees are all very nice and accommodating. Overall a great place to eat.

This is one of my favorite places to go for a snack or for lunch. Their pastries are to die for and they always have a great variety. Their sandwiches are wonderful and they serve soup daily as well. Not only are they entirely gluten free, but theyre great about handling other allergies as well. Its a full service bakery with a great atmosphere, lots of seating available, and even wi-fi. They do custom orders as well. If this sounds like an advertisement, I guess it kind of is. I want everyone to go there and make this place succeed because Id be so sad if they didnt get enough business here and decided to change locations or something. This is the only gluten-free bakery in the east county area.

Five stars for great tasting GF baked goods, but they lose a star for each of these: poor service, high prices, and bad hours. I have been in there several times when the owner is there and she is surly and rude, but the one time I went in and she wasnt around, everyone was all smiles and cheer. The prices for individual servings of their cakes and other goodies are fine, but if you want them to bake a GF cake for an even, be prepared to take out a second mortgage. Finally, they are only open when I am at work, so I have only been able to go in when I have a day off or am on vacation - try being open when most of the community isnt also at work and you might see more business.

MOST. DELICIOUS. CUPCAKE. IVE. HAD. IN. YEARS!!!!! Plus - I had a yummy breakfast bagel! My husband demolished a custom sandwich and hes not used to eating gluten free. I immediately got a cake order form because my birthday is in 30 days and I want to be ready. I also bought cupcakes in every flavor they had available so I can start taste testing ahead of time. Sure, I know its an excuse, but with the food is this good, I have no problem admitting that!

I tried Liberated for the first time today. What a great place! They have so many options to choose from. I went in for bread but wasnt sure what kind would be good. The people behind the counter were wonderful. They gave me a sample of each bread type, which saved me a lot of money that could have been wasted on something I didnt enjoy. All of the breads were good. They even make their own graham crackers. I will definitely be back!!!

When I was told to not eat gluten, I was very sad because I love bread and sweets. But then Liberated Baking opened and I this place! The staff is excellent and I love them all! And the food...oh my gosh...OUT OF THIS WORLD! The sandwiches, pot pies, soup, breads, and all the fantastic treats are to die for! I cant recommend them enough. You must go there, even if you can eat gluten.

Best GF/DF dinner rolls and flat bread, I actually enjoy eating them plain. Everything Ive tried, I like. Great flavor and texture (if its weird, I wont eat it, never have that problem here). This is a newer lifestyle change for me, so it has been really nice to have such a great resource for my bread cravings. ;) and the folks there are very helpful and polite.

Delicious food and always with a variety. The owners/staff is always very nice and generous. Even given the expensive nature of gluten free products their prices are very decent. Anyone that eats specialty food should always expect to pay more anyway, that aside they are less expensive than other places Ive been.
