Disclosure: I received samples in order to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own.
Birthday celebrations call for cake and treats. This year I celebrated with samples from Gem City Fine Foods, one of the participants in this year’s recent online Nourished Festival. Their baked goods are certified gluten-free, and made in a dedicated gluten-free bakery. In addition, their products do not contain tree nuts or peanuts, and everything is made in a dedicated nut-free bakery. This is especially important to me, since my kids are allergic to nuts.
This is the Gem City Fine Foods Vegan Chocolate Cake. Gem City ships their cakes frozen on Mondays, and I was amazed how this cake still looked like it came straight from a bakery.
This two-layer chocolate cake with white frosting was a real treat. It would be perfect for anyone who is looking for a cake that is vegan, gluten-free and/or nut-free. The cake was nice and moist and we could not tell that it was gluten-free.
Look at that structural integrity! This cake can be cut up into beautiful slices and does not fall apart. It is nice when everyone can indulge in a dessert together and not feel deprived.
We also had the opportunity to try some other Gem City Fine Foods mini desserts. Aren’t they so cute? Pictured here are the Blueberry Lemon Loaf, Flourless Chocolate Torte, Pumpkin Cheesecake, and Lemon Zest Cheesecake. I like the idea of serving individual desserts so everyone can choose their favorite. I tend to think of gluten-free baked goods as having a strange texture and taste, but that is not the case with these cakes.
I have to say, my favorite dessert was the Pumpkin Cheesecake; luscious and creamy, pumpkin-y and SO good. This should come as no surprise to anyone who knows my love for pumpkin desserts. Did you notice my pumpkin t-shirt in the first pictures? My love of pumpkin knows no bounds!
