Eating gluten-free can be hard, but in a city with so many choices it doesn’t have to be so bad. If you’re a dessert lover but follow a strict gluten-free diet, we’ve got your back. Boston has a variety of bakeries, but we tracked down the best-gluten free ones so you don’t have to worry about finding them yourself!

1. Something Sweet Without Wheat

169 Massachusetts Ave., Arlington

This award-winning bakery is a great pick! It was created by two sisters, Christine and Sandy, who have a family history of wheat and dairy allergies. Something Sweet Without Wheat sells baked goods, but also gluten-free bread. Try their Lemon Drizzled Macaroons, Cranberry Orange Muffins, or Cinnamon Raisin Bread!  

2. Fiore Bakery

55 South St., Jamaica Plain

Did someone say flourless chocolate cake? Fiore Bakery has a variety of delicious cakes and other baked goods. Besides their amazing cheesecake, if you happen to visit Fiore you must try their vegan whoopie pies. Don’t forget to grab a few items to go! 

3. Tatte Bakery

318 Third St., Cambridge

Tatte Bakery is truly a gift from the gluten-free gods. Ask for their GF menu and order a flourless brownie. Each baked good or pastry you order is made with intricate detail and fresh ingredients. (And, we must admit, the whole places is totally Instagram-worthy.)

4. Celia Cakes
