Janna’s Gluten Free Cottage Bakery

For Minnesotans managing Celiac Disease, a wheat allergy, or general gluten sensitivity, the joy of visiting a bakery often comes with anxiety over cross-contamination and the disappointment of bland alternatives. Janna’s Gluten Free Cottage Bakery in New Brighton, MN, was created to eliminate that worry and bring back the delight of delicious baked goods. This is not just a bakery that offers a few gluten-free items; it is a dedicated, celiac-safe kitchen, founded by a mother who understands the necessity of a truly gluten-free diet firsthand.

Janna’s mission goes beyond merely omitting gluten; she focuses on creating nutrient-dense items using mostly organic, non-GMO, non-refined, and high-quality ingredients. The resulting products—from stunning cakes and moist muffins to savory breads—are so good that many customers note you “You'd never believe these treats are gluten free.” This dedication to safety and flavor has made Janna's a trusted and cherished resource for the Twin Cities community, whether through custom orders from the New Brighton cottage or at popular spots like the Mill City Farmers Market. The rave reviews, like the one from the customer with celiac disease who declared, “This was the most amazing Gluten Free cake I have ever had!,” perfectly capture the bakery’s success in delivering both safety and quality.

Janna’s Gluten Free Cottage Bakery operates from its home base in New Brighton, designed for easy pre-order fulfillment rather than traditional walk-in retail.
