Sweet Christine's Bakery - Kennett Square, Pa

I just returned from a three-day visit to the Brandywine Valley region of southeastern Pennsylvania (near the Delaware border). Sweet Christine's Bakery is on West State Street, the westbound (one-way) main street through Kennett Square, and everything in it is gluten-free! They are primarily a wholesale business, but the bakery is open to walk-in customers Wednesday-Saturday, 10:00-6:00. In addition to cookies, brownies, and cupcakes, they sell pizzas (in two sizes), bagels, and on Fridays and Saturdays--chicken salad and bean salad. There are a few tables for people who want to have lunch right there.

Their website is here: Open Original Shared Link

I highly recommend this bakery!

I'm considering a Labor Day trip to the Brandywine River area. Anyone have any other suggestions for restaurants?

Thanks,

Can't personally vouch for it, but Floga Bistro in Kennett Square, PA has gluten free pizza and pasta.

To help future searches, this applies to the Brandywine Valley area and Wilmington, DE.

Timing was off for a meal at Sweet Christine's but we did have muffins there and they were very good. I also got a pretzel stick to go and had that as a later snack and it was also good.

Pizza By Elizabeth just north of Wilmington was very convenient to the museums we were visiting so we had lunch there two days. The gluten-free crust seemed to be corn based. While I wasn't highly impressed with the crust alone, overall it was great pizza, generous toppings, etc.

For evening meals we stuck with the chains with gluten-free menus (PF Changs and Outback).

For the travel, if you like to tour homes and gardens of the wealthy, there are several owned by members of the Du Pont family in this area north of Wilmington. If you like art similar to N.C. or Andrew Wythe, the Brandywine Art Museum and Delaware Art Musem are good stops.

      @Healthierbody2026, as I said above, there is not a separate forum within this community for NCGS people and I do not know of one anywhere else. You sound uncertain whether your physician ordered blood tests for celiac disease or for diabetes. Do you have access online to your medical records and test results?

      @trents first response: can you direct me to that particular section of this site for NCGS or and are there any groups I can join for people with NCGS? second response: I can’t really remember due to it was some or a few years back but I believe she did blood tests or work on me or I think she did a glucose test on me.

      There is not a distinct section in this particular online resource and community devoted to those with NCGS. And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online.

And I cannot say with any certainty whether or not such a thing exists elsewhere online. But your question makes me think celiac.com might entertain the idea of starting a forum within our community for that purpose. I should explain that celiac.com is divided into a number of separate forums, each devoted to a different topic or concern within the gluten intolerant/gluten sensitive population. Having said that, the main is on those with celiac disease (or their support systems) rather than those with NCGS because it has more serious long-term health implications. I see. Can you elaborate on how you were tested to arrive at this diagnosis?
