    Gluten free vanilla cake with mixed berry filling
    Alexandra G.

    Gluten free desserts are so hard to find that are delicious, affordable, and actually safe to eat from cross contamination for someone with celiac disease. I'm so, so glad to have stumbled upon Bare Bakery. They made my birthday cake (Vanilla cake with mixed berry filling) and it was heavenly! The cake was moist, soft, and tasted great as leftovers when I'm so used to gluten free desserts crumbling or hardening up the next day. All of their other treats and delicacies look amazing too, and I can't wait to try more items off the menu soon!

    Chocolate Pecan
    Anna K.

    I'd been following the bakery on social media and needed a gf/v dessert for Thanksgiving. I ordered a chocolate pecan pie that was still warm when it was given to me! It was divine. Even the non-GF folks loved it! They have a very diverse menu and excited about trying some other pies, cakes and cookies. I understand they are at a few farmers markets. I picked mine up at the new location that's a little out of my way but worth the drive. Loved the drive up system for Covid purposes. It was easy to find and no wait. Also I had some confusion about my confirmation (user error) and owner was very responsive and helpful.

    Today's brownie cake - with Kelly's frosting message:). It is an ordinary day - that is now extraordinary:)

    Bare Bakery has the most delicious baked goods!! I tried some of their brownies years ago. OMG - they were fantastic! They are gluten and dairy free. I was trying to cut down/eliminate refined sugar and many of their offerings are without these two ingredients also. Through the years, my husband, daughter, and now son-in-law have their favorite bare bakery goods. We have continued our love affair with the brownies, and added the raspberry vanilla ("wedding") cake (my husband's favorite), lemon and honey cake (my favorite), chocolate chip cookie cake (my daughter's favorite and the mini cakes - my son-in-law's favorite. These cookies and cakes have never disappointed. The are consistently delicious and up our happiness level when one of these delicious cakes are on our table (or counter:).

    September 2020 Cake Tasting Box. Flavors are Spice Cake, Italian Cream Cake, Chocolate Cake, Vanilla Cake.

    Sign up for their monthly newsletters, you will receive information on their interesting monthly tasting box! I ordered a cake tasting box back in September, and it was wonderful. We picked it up at the shop, and the box was wrapped in a cute bow, it looked so cute and fancy. Each box comes with four flavors, and you get two of each flavor, so a total of 8 mini cakes. The box was $35. It is a perfect little cake tasting box for a picnic, date night, a small friends/family tea party, or of course treats for just yourself. All of their cakes are dairy free and paleo, I wish it could be egg free too. The cake flavors we tried were: Spice Cake/Apple Jam/Vanilla Frosting (NF) Italian Cream Cake/Honey Vanilla Frosting Chocolate Cake/Espresso Frosting (NF) Vanilla Cake/Chai Spiced Vanilla Frosting (NF) Each cake was moist and flavorful, perfectly sized to satisfy your sweet tooth without overindulging yourself.

    We ordered 2 the chocolate was gluten free!

    Definitely recommend for gluten free cake! It's so hard to find a gluten free option, this one actually tasted amazing.

    Gluten free vegan cake
    Sophia G.

    I have a very "difficult" family. I'm plant based, my sisters gluten free, and another family is allergic to peas. Finding a bakery that fits ALL of our diets is hard. Really hard. Making special occasions even harder. Then I stumbled upon Bare Bakery. So far it's the only place I know of in Houston that can cater to everyone in my family. Most places can serve one of us but not the other. The owner is super nice and works with you when needed. The cake was amazing. My only concern was getting their contact information was really hard. I had to contact them maybe three different ways and in the end she ended up messaging me. I would suggest posting your number somewhere. It took too much work to find your contact information for something I felt was urgent. It would be very helpful especially with the hours the business runs. A number where customers can contact you would be fantastic. Even if posted on the receipt. Other than that everything worked out perfectly. Thank you for the amazing cake!

    Custom cake order (Italian cream with espresso frosting)

    Amazing desserts & friendly staff! I stopped eating dairy & gluten years ago, so it's nice to have the option of getting sweets from somewhere when the craving hits. We ordered a custom cake (Italian cream with espresso frosting) and not only was it beautiful, it also tasted phenomenal. We'll definitely be ordering more in the future!!

    Dark chocolate cake with espresso frosting for my sister's birthday last fall!

    I loveeeee the products from Bare Bakery! The owner, Kelly works hard to source great ingredients and to produce quality products that look and tase great!

    Ask the Community - Bare Bakery

    Do you offer a vegan cake that does not use almond or coconut flour? Looking for vegan and treenut free option?

    Sorry, but all of our current products contain either almond or coconut.

    Hi! Are you able to accommodate a severe peanut and tree nut allergy?

    Since we use almond flour in almost all of our products, we do not have dedicated nut-free equipment and so there is a chance of cross contamination.

    So, if no "refined sugar", then what? Splenda?

    Honey and maple syrup, I believe

    Is this a special order only business or do you have a bakery store front or farmers market attendance?

    Bare bakery has been at the Memorial Villages & Urban Harvest markets but right now is taking a break due to supply chain issue & general safety. Per the current newsletter, items are still available at retail partners:… 

    Do you use palm oil in vegan baked goods?

    We do! A sustainably sourced palm shortening from Healthy Traditions.

Beautiful presentation and the flavors were yummy of the Texas toast French toast, the oat whipped cream & maple syrup were great. The Jupiter breakfast was $21 & the GF French toast was about $12 with $4 fruit cup. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with my GF French toast. The mock-tail mule was nothing special for $9 of juice :/. In total we spent $58 which is a lot in our opinion. By all means it's not a bad spot and I'm sure other things you are good, but this was just our experience with what we got. There is a statue of a deity in the front of the restaurant & I welcome the Holy Spirit to come upon them all :). May Jesus be with them with eyes to see and ears to hear. There may be other gods but there is only one God, King Jesus Christ Isaiah 43:10-28 God bless

I tried to give the restaurant a chance to make things right by calling them. Instead of addressing my concerns, I was told they were busy and to call back in a few hours. That was frustrating, especially after spending $40 on a meal and an appetizer. Overall, the small portions, poor quality steak, incorrect order, and lack of immediate customer service made this one of the worst dining experiences I've had. Unfortunately, I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

The ice cream is a 10/10 with delicious and unique flavors. We love that there's a featured treat each day, and nearly everything we've tried has been incredible. That said, the service has historically been the one downside. In fact, it's been so consistently dismissive, slow, and unfriendly that I've never left a review before. The product was too good for me to stop coming, but I couldn't leave a glowing review while ignoring the service experience. So I never said anything. Last week, however, my best friend and I stopped in for a quick dessert, fully expecting the same experience, and instead we met Laura. Laura was absolutely wonderful. A dessert shop, especially a vegan one, should feel welcoming, joyful, and a little special, and she embodied that energy exactly. She was patient, warm, hospitable, and genuinely kind. Her attitude elevated the entire experience and reminded me how much great service can enhance an already amazing product. I'm hopeful that Laura represents a positive shift in staffing because she completely eliminated the only criticism I've ever had about this place. The desserts have always been exceptional, and with service like hers, this place is truly outstanding.
