Celiac safety assessment and key features
Lucky's Bakehouse Cafe does a lovely job offering gluten-free cakes, cupcakes, and granola—honestly, their GF vegan cupcakes have turned a few heads in the Boulder community. But here's the catch: this is not a dedicated gluten-free bakery, and wheat-based goods are baked onsite every day, making cross-contamination a real concern for those with celiac disease. While gluten-free items are clearly marked and staff seem allergy-aware, there's no evidence of separate prep areas or strict protocols that would make me feel truly safe. If you're highly sensitive or strictly celiac, you'll want to be extra cautious or stick to items like granola that have been specifically called out as safer—because for most of us, peace of mind is half the treat.
