The Bennington Bakery's Products

We bake our fresh hand-made goods from exclusively gluten-free ingredients and whenever possible from sources that are natural, local and organic. Here is a small sampling of what we have to offer. A variety of our products can be found at local retailers including: Spice 'n Nice and The Market Wagon in Bennington, VT; New Morning Natural Foods and The Spiral Press of Manchester Center, VT; The Shaftsbury Country Store in Shaftsbury, VT; and the Wild Oats Co-Op in Williamstown, MA. We encourage your special requests and will gladly accomadate all of your catering needs. To place an order, please contact us. [Note: ingredients below that are specifically certified/certifiable gluten-free or that we have otherwise taken care to ensure are gluten-free are starred (*) - for instance oats, which in the past were considered to be unsafe are now available from reliable gluten-free sources like Bob's Red Mill. These oats are grown from pure seed on clean fields and packaged in a gluten-free facility. Sometimes making sure an ingredient is gluten-free is a simple choice between items on a shelf, but other times it requires considerable research - rest assured, we've made sure the product you're receiving is made exclusively from gluten-free ingredients.] We are always baking and experimenting in hopes of recreating all of our old favorites and creating new ones.
