To celebrate the twins 2nd birthday today we made the trip to Durham, NC to Daisy Cakes. They have the best Gluten Free cupcakes in NC. Trust me I’ve tried every Gluten Free cupcake I can get my hands on in the state! Daisy Cakes is celebrating their two year birthday at their store location so I felt it appropriate that we all celebrate together!
They have recently expanded their Gluten Free menu items. I’m slowly making my way through the new items. They have pop tarts, tarts, bread pudding, cookies, biscuits, macaroons, raspberry bars and more.
Today I tried the Apple Almond Tart. It was reminiscent of sitting in France at a cafe. The taste, texture and flavor were just like the European desserts I remember. The tart was sweet but not too sweet. The swirl of whip cream was a perfect compliment to the tart.
While at Daisy Cakes our four year old enjoyed a Gluten-filled brownie and the twins ate mini-cupcakes. Ok the twins ate the icing off the mini-cupcakes! It’s their birthday so I figured it would be ok.
We grabbed some full size Gluten Free cupcakes to bring back home. We will enjoy them during our family birthday party this evening for the twins.
In other super exciting news Daisy Cakes has just come out with a Gluten Free flour. Equal Measure is a cup for cup Gluten Free Flour Mix! I of course grabbed a bag and can’t wait to get baking! I can only hope my cupcakes will be close to theirs since I will be using their flour mix. The flour mix is corn starch and brown rice flour based.
If I can swing it we will go back Sunday so I can get a Gluten Free cupcake on my birthday!!!
Here is the review I did a while ago about Daisy Cakes. Heart them!

Katie – It WAS! I could have licked the plate!
