Sara made wonderful and delicious treats. The texture of the donuts was AMAZING. They’re the best GF donuts I’ve ever had. And the caramel barsssssss, don’t even get me started. It’s all so so so good.

Sweet Treat without Wheat makes premier gluten free goods. The cinnamon rolls especially are amazingly delicious! My daughter loves to get them raw then take them home, bake them and have hot cinnamon rolls right from the oven. I highly recommend Sweet Treat without Wheat for gluten free goods.

I got a gluten free German chocolate cake for my Dad's birthday and it was outstanding!! I ordered it the day before and they had it ready to go by 5pm that next day. Great tasting and great customer service. I highly recommend them!!

Amazing gluten free food for my wife’s wheat & food allergies. Everything is wonderful, especially the donuts, focaccia bread, lemon bars & breakfast crepes. We recommend them highly!! You would not know they are all gluten free (and sometimes other-allergen-free too — ask!) unless we told you. HIGHLY recommended! Contact them to order and be sure to make their popup outside sales!

Sarah made my son’s 13th bday cake this past weekend and it.was.SO.SO.good. My in-laws (who aren’t gluten free) even said they may order my FIL bday cake from here in a few weeks! She went above and beyond and also made his frosting with some special powdered sugar that was corn free!! There was barely enough remaining for my son to have leftovers the next day! We’ve ordered from Sarah several times over the last few years and everything has been fantastic. Cinnamon rolls, donuts, cake, cookies, you name it, Sarah can bake it!! Her pop ups during spring/summer/fall shouldn’t be missed!

Ordered a gluten free cake online and picked up a few days later. The process was very convenient and the cake was incredibly delicious. I ate the whole thing!

I purchased a cinnamon sugar donut, a lemon bar, focaccia bread, savory chex mix, and two cold brew coffees to go. Everything was delicious and the pricing was excellent for gluten free. What an excellent find in the DSM area. Can’t wait to go back!

My fiancé and I don’t eat dairy, my brothers can’t eat gluten, and my stepmom doesn’t eat chocolate, so it’s difficult finding desserts everyone can enjoy. Not only was I able to find something for everyone at Sweet Treat, but Sarah was able to do it last minute, it was delicious (I ordered the lemon bars), and her prices were very fair.

I cannot say enough great things about Sweet Treat without Wheat! I had the pleasure of trying their cinnamon sugar donuts, and they were absolutely delicious—soft, flavorful, and perfectly sweet without being too heavy. You’d never guess they’re gluten-free! What made the experience even more special was the incredible generosity of the owner. Despite the bakery being located in Iowa, she went above and beyond to get the donuts to me all the way in Aruba. If you’re looking for amazing gluten-free treats made with love, this is the place to go. I can’t wait to try more of their baked goods!

We ordered a Carrot Cake at the last minute for my wife’s birthday and it was amazing!! Sarah was easy to work with and got back to us promptly when we submitted the order. We have two boys with Celiac so this was a great treat for all of us. Highly recommend even if you don’t need Gluten Free!!
