In the past 6 months I've developed a bunch of food allergies and sensitivities. If you've ever read any of my reviews, you know dessert is my favorite, so facing a birthday without being able to have cake or cookies as a result of needing to avoid dairy and wheat was daunting to say the least. Enter Chubby Bunny, a bakery catering to those with food challenges. What I love about this place is that they aren't just trying to make a version of something you've already had that might taste sort of like it, they're creating their own deliciousness and unique recipes that hold their own against any sweet I've had. The store itself is quaint and cute in the heart of downtown Hamilton. Inside, I was met with SO many options of things to try. I settled on a strawberry frosted chocolate brownie (incredibly decadent and the icing is so creamy and just sweet enough without being overly so), iced sugar cookie (dense and shortbread like, just the way I like it) and a salted chocolate chip cookie (probably my least favorite, but still a quality cookie). The staff is very friendly and eager to explain anything you need to know about ingredients or potential allergens. They also make custom cakes and cookies! read more

Took a stroll on Main Street with my son and came across The Chubby Bunny. What a quaint, little bakery. They have a varied selection of goodies and they are all gluten free and vegan. Looking at their display of baked goods was mouthwatering. I decided on the chocolate raspberry cupcake. The chocolate cupcake was very rich, decadent, and moist. I was surprised by the hint of raspberry filling on the inside but taking a bite and getting a taste of the chocolate cupcake, icing, and raspberry on top all at once was well blended and a definite treat for my senses. I would not have guessed it was vegan. My son picked the chocolate chip cookie and the chocolate chip cookie sandwich. He said he enjoyed both. I will be back to try other delectable treats. read more

Found this little spot on google and I dropped by for some vegan sweets. And I must say everything I tried was really delicious. I will be back to try something new. The chocolate cupcake is missing from the picture, it didn't make it home. read more

Fantastic especially if you ate gluten free. Great selection. Everything I have trued is delicious.

I am always on the look out for a bakery, and this one is definitely on the list for near by gems! We went a little over board for a weekend delight. The s'mores cookie is beyond delicious, heated up adds an additional gooey goodness! The oatmeal cream pie, was beyond delicious. The center was the perfect amount of sweet! The school lunch brownie is not to be passed up, the texture is perfect! So much chocolate! Carrot cake cupcake, the icing was the best that the babe has ever had! The ladies working were all very nice! Also check out the merch! If you're in the area make sure to pop in and grab something delicious! read more

Amazing that Chubby Bunny is all GF! But, I didn't realize they were also vegan, which is good for vegans, but maybe the recipes suffer a bit. You need to temper your expectations when ordering a "doughnut". It is a cupcake, in doughnut form. So, if you are expecting something akin to Krispy Kreme, you are in for a surprise. The pumpkin chocolate chip "donut" was very tasty though, all the fall vibes, would order again! The oatmeal creme pie was another standout..it was just like getting it in the store, but better! Some misses were the zucchini muffin - good consistency, but no zucchini flavor, and the s'mores donut - was too much, almost didn't finish it. The vanilla cupcake was not memorable. For being organic and non-GMO ingredients, the prices are VERY inexpensive! The staff was super nice, I'd go back again, even if it was just for the pumpkin donut/muffin. ;) read more

Raspberry Lemon cupcake, pumpkin donut, chocolate donut, brownies, oh my! The pumpkin donut was our favorite followed very closely to the chocolate muffin. A fresh cup of coffee and we were in a sugar coma. Absolutely amazing! It is so strange to walk into a bakery and know I can get just about anything in the case. Wheat free and soy free because of allergies and there were so many options read more

Absolutely love Chubby Bunny! Drive 45 minutes every couple of months to stock up on some treats for my freezer to enjoy later! Great carrot cake, muffins and cookies. read more

Chubby Bunny is my favorite little spot to hit on a Saturday morning out. It makes for a cute morning date to grab some treats, especially their AMAZING pumpkin bars (although, these aren't year round -- they probably should be though ). They are great with their customers, remembering the familiar faces and calling out those who ask for specific items by memory. Great place! Make the stop! Who knew vegan could taste so good!? read more

A vegan, gluten free bakery opening in Hamilton is basically a dream come true. I've been following the Chubby Bunny Bakery for awhile. The products are available at both Jungle Jim's locations, Kofenya, the Moon Co-Op, Miami and Village Perks in Seven Mile. Sometimes at local events like Operation Pumpkin, too. But a real BAKERY in my hometown is really exciting. Their website says, "Everything we make is gluten, egg, dairy, and nut FREE and certified vegan. Some items contain soy, but if you have allergies to this or anything else, we can prepare any of our baked goods with substitute ingredients upon your request. We use organic and non-GMO ingredients--no preservatives or ingredients that you can't pronounce." Their location is conveniently located near True West and Unsung Salvage. A parking lot is right around the block. Today was opening day and I was really impressed at the number of customers already there purchasing baked goods and hummus. Chickpea Chicks hummus is also available at this location. And, while I have not tried it yet, I'm excited to report I bought some pumpkin curry hummus and they offer dessert hummus. I bought two chocolate chip cookies and a chocolate chip pumpkin donut. The pumpkin donuts are an absolute don't miss. I can't wait to try everything they have to offer. read more

Two words ! Chocolate frosted brownie .ok that's 3 words .But omg amazing I get their products from jungle Jim's Fairfield.I need to actually go to the shop . read more

Appreciate the idea, and the staff was super friendly. However...UNLESS YOU ARE USED TO VEGAN FOODS, this will be a serious let down. We tried an iced sugar cookie, raspberry chocolate cupcake and a confetti cupcake. Honestly, not very good, they all tasted similar and we ended up throwing 90% of the purchase away. In all fairness we are not Vegan, but just wanted to check the place out. The wife and I found the consistency to be odd and the taste did not live up tohow nice the items looked. The 3 items above were $10, which is semi-outrageous on its own, but I'm sure Vegan baked goods aren't inexpensive to produce. If you are Vegan, you should go and go now, fully onboard to support a new local business, but for everyone else...pass. read more

I recently had a birthday party and some of your deserts we're gifted to me. Mind numbing. I'm not much of a sweets guy in general, and admittedly have always steered away from gluten free and vegan products. Not from being unwilling to eat them, just had never found one that had lived up to the billing I guess. These are the ones. Im not surr you could have convinced me that these are gf and vegan. Honestly my taste buds still think my brain is lying to them. Simply amazing, moist chocolate cake, creamy rich frosting. These were an amazing Birthday treat! Thank you do much! read more

I am sure if I lived closer to Chubby Bunny I'd gain several more pounds a month! I havent found a single thing from Chubby Bunny that I dont like! They have the most amazing Oatmeal Creme Pies but their Pumpkin Bar is THE BEST THING EVER. I also love their Zucchini Bread! I've been to this location twice and frequently buy their goodies at Jungle Jim's. They are Gluten Free AND Vegan and I highly recommend them even if you dont follow either of these diets. Bring a mask if you're visiting in 2020! read more

Stopped at chubby bunny last year while passing through town, was very excited as I have many dietary restrictions. They're very kind and helpful when checking items for my weird allergies. The lunchbox brownies are delicious and my mom who doesn't have any restrictions LOVES the carrot cake cupcake. On our recent trip I asked ahead of time for them to hold some items as we wouldn't get their till close to closing. The owner Alyson was wonderful for doing that! CB is now a must stop anytime we're near by. read more

What can I say about Chubby Bunny? The owners are amazing people who take such good care to bring us wonderful hummus and baked goods. They are always so incredibly friendly and inviting. I'm so glad they worked through the pandemic and kept us safe and full of delicious food. As for the baked goods? They're hands down my favorite bakery. Gluten free, nut free and vegan, it's such an inclusive environment. The hummus selection is also bomb, several different options- even a skyline flavored one! Honestly I can't say enough good about them! read more

Absolutely delicious gluten free baked goods. I have celiac disease, so I've tried many gluten free bakeries. Many of them fall short of what I could do at home, but Chubby Bunny is so so good! I can't replicate the goodness in my own kitchen, and that's what I look for in a bakery. :) read more

Ordered cake cookies and cupcakes for my sons engagement party. All I can say is excellent!!!

The best vegan bakery in southwest Ohio, hands down. The quality and selection can't be beat, and the owner is amazing. As a vegan, I have REALLY struggled to find a bakery in Cincinnati that meets my standards. Other places with physical locations in the area make sickly sweet garbage that I'd be embarrassed to give to a non-vegan. Baked goods have to also have some savoriness, people! And there's no reason why vegan confections should taste any different than their counterparts that are made with the byproducts of exploited animals. When you go somewhere and pay for food that you could have made way better yourself, it's a frustrating waste of your time and money. Well, Chubby Bunny changes ALL of that. The baked goods are the PERFECT balance of savory and sweet. The variety of beautiful confections in the store's case made me feel like a kid in a candy store. I bought so much that I made up for years of not having a decent bakery to fulfill my sweet (and savory!) tooth... and it has been worth every calorie to enjoy every last cupcake, muffin, cookie, and donut that I got. I hope with all of my heart that this place stays in business. It deserves to more than any area vegan place I've found in a long time. Totally worth the drive from Cincinnati. I'll do my part; now get up there and load yourself up on the most fantastic vegan baked goods you'll ever find, too! read more

Seriously the best!!! Do yourself a favor and get one of their muffins or breads. They are so good with coffee!
