Defloured: A Gluten-Free Bakery
Defloured is a gluten-free bakery on Balmoral Avenue in Andersonville; per its own FAQ, everything it bakes is gluten-free. The bakery publishes a complete product allergen list and uses its FAQ to document dairy-free products and egg-free and soy-free items, which gives it documented coverage well beyond gluten. The same FAQ is direct about nuts: the bakery is not nut-free, peanuts and tree nuts are present and used in the facility, and precautions are taken to limit cross-contamination. Its product pages also ask guests to communicate all allergies to staff.
