So happy there's a bakery that friends and I can enjoy together! This time we experienced a beautiful chocolate flourless cake with raspberry jam and fresh raspberries. It was great. The chocolate taste was rich and decadent while the jam on top was sweet but not cloyingly sweet. The fresh raspberries on top were not only a pretty decoration but each raspberry was perfect. We also tasted the cannele that were perfectly made with a hint of orange and a center that is not dry but moist and very enjoyable. We also tasted a strawberry and cream filled cream puff topped with chocolate. So light, fresh and tasty. Highly recommend this bakery to everyone. read more

So good! I got the cinnamon roll and tiramisu. The cinnamon roll was delicious and did not feel or taste like it was gluten free. The perfect cinnamon roll consistency, not dense or dry like a lot of gluten free products. The tiramisu was great as well. Will definitely try them out whenever we're in the area. read more

Breakfast pastry, raspberry almond cake, and scones for a baby shower. All were outstanding. Delicious. And working with Flourless was equally outstanding. And really, that raspberry almond cake is a stunning treat! read more

Amazing food and an even more amazing owner. Richard, the owner, is one of the kindest people you'll ever meet and hands down makes the best gluten-free pastries I've had in my 12 years of being gluten-free. He switches up the menu now and then to keep things fresh with new options. The shop is tucked in the cutest spot in downtown Placerville, and parking is usually easy to find on the street. No doubt the best gluten-free bakery in El Dorado County. read more

We drove up from Sac specifically to try this gluten free bakery and it was WORTH IT! I'm perpetually on the hunt for good quality GF food, like the kind that doesn't sacrifice flavor and texture and this place is it. The bakery was smaller than I expected and tucked away in a little shopping center. But it was easy to find parking on the main drag. Great and friendly service. We got a variety of things: pizza dough, breakfast sandwich, quiche, cinnamon bun, peach tart. Everything we have had thus far was exceptionally delicious. You would truly never know it is gluten free. We can't wait to come back and try more things! read more

Highly recommend this place. I myself am not gluten free, however my girlfriend is. It is really hard to find some gluten free options around el dorado county, not only does this place carry phenomenal gluten free options that taste just like if it were not gluten free if not better. Their food is all natural and whole, nothing processed. On top of the great food, the owner is an extremely nice person, and easy to talk to. He gave us a complimentary macaroon which are delicious. My girlfriend and I really enjoy seeing the owner. The store is very well maintained, clean, and comforting. This place deserves 5 stars and more! read more

This is an amazing bakery. Not only gluten free but seed oil free as well. Prices were also extremely low in comparison to other gluten free options. I have a gluten allergy and feel unexcited to eat 90% of the time as I have very limited options. I was visiting Placerville and wandered in here and was shocked by so many options!! I ordered the lemon pound cake, macarons, pistachio cannoli, and a scone. I was given 3 pastries for free as-well!! Everything was AMAZING. Soft, not grainy, moist, etc. I highly recommend. I although believe they are not open most weekdays. But definitely stop in when you can! The owner was also incredibly nice and humble. read more

This bakery is fantastic. I've been several times, but waited to write a review until I've had a chance to taste several items (live about 2 hrs away). I haven't had anything that wasn't delicious but the honey cake and the pecan apple streusel pie are out of this world! So glad I found this place. I have gluten free bakeries that are closer to my location, but none of them offer pastries like Flourless does. Amazing! read more

Delicious pastries and very friendly service nestled in the small town shops on main street.

This place is AMAZING. I'm not even gluten free and this is my bakery of choice because everything is so tasty.

Everything I sampled was so delicious and the service was outstanding! I will definitely be driving back to try other goodies in the future. Everyone, gluten free or not, should try the chocolate cake. You will be in heaven! The ciabatta rolls are also amazing and I am looking forward to having a sandwich for lunch today. See you soon! read more

I was lucky to try both a morning tea tasting earlier this year and take home a couple of extra treats from the bakery afterwards. The high tea event was well organized and hosted in a nice tasting room across from the bakery. The food and service were great. The bakery itself was easy to find afterwards and they provided prompt service inside. The selection had dwindled a bit by the time I popped in, which was towards late morning/noontime on a Sunday, but there were still several varieties to choose from. Everything I tried, both savory and sweet, were some of the best gluten free treats I've had, and I've been gluten free for about seven years now. The owner/pastry chef was present and shared some background on his process and overall was nice to talk to. He has struck a delicious balance between flavor, texture, and sweetness. The savory goods including focaccia and scones were not dry, crumbly, or grainy. The sweet pastries had pleasant flavors and textures, which included opera cake, entremet, petit four, and tart. It was fun trying these different gluten free items and it felt like I was spoiled with all of the options. I highly recommend making the drive to check out this shop. read more

Service Selection Flourless Another unique featured addition to Downtown not to be missed. read more

I've been gf for about 15 years, and have tried SO many attempts at tasty treats. I have never had anything so good as at Flourless. And so good that when I share it with non-gf people they love and are excited when I bring more. I don't care where you have to drive from, you need Flourless in your life. read more

Flourless - Sour cream coffee cake, scones, chocolate eclairs - Bakeries Near Me - Placerville, California

This bakery serves speciality European GF items that yes, you "can't believe are gluten free." It sets itself apart from other GF bakeries in that the items are premium---a foodie's dream. You aren't relegated to selecting which cookie or cupcake you want because there are none. Instead you can pick from cream puffs, opera cake, lemon tarts, and gateaus, which is every person's dream. The owner (Richard) is a trained and experienced pastry chef who takes great pride in perfecting every single item. As someone who likes to travel and visit GF bakeries, look no further. This place is it. I have yet to find anything that compares. read more

Do not go to this bakery if you have a dairy allergy. We recently moved to the area and heard good things about this place. We came in and bought items that were supposedly dairy free for my son who has a gluten sensitivity and serious dairy allergy. Long story short, my son ended up in the hospital with a 104 degree fever. We later found out from my sister in law that the baker was using a brand of margarine that contained dairy for the first several months after his bakery opened (and didn't even apologize for it). Supposedly he's using an actual dairy free margarine now, but I would not trust him considering he didn't even read the label on a product that he used for many months. Who knows how many other people were negatively affected by this. I wouldn't even trust his products to be gluten free at this point. I hate writing negative reviews, but I would hate for anyone else to have this experience, especially with their child. read more

I wanted to add to my previous review that I have had multiple items from here and have not had any issues. I have celiac. Also, the scones, cin rolls, bear claws freeze really well. So buy a bunch and freeze and let thaw and enjoy when you're ready. read more

We have been "comparing " gluten free bakeries for years, and this one is outstanding. It is better than the Bay Area gluten free bakeries that have been in business for years. We have loved the pastries, cinnamon rolls and breads. Good service as well. We placed a cake order and it was just what we ordered read more

Cutest little gluten free bakery! We were thrilled to find this spot. Grabbed several things to try and everything was superb. This will be a must-stop for us when we are back in the area. read more

Absolutely fantastic. I loved their eclairs. But really everything was delicious. As someone who can't eat gluten, these were the best pastries I've had in a long, long time. read more

We are up here visiting my partner's parents for the holidays, and they let us know about this place that might be good for my newfound gluten insensitivity. One of the biggest things I miss from having to give up gluten is having a really good sandwich. Well -- Flourless just made me a very happy man. Their croque monsieur not only had an incredible flavor (that mustard was bomb), but the bread it was on was perfectly crispy and chewy in all the right ways. We also picked up some desserts for later in our trip, and I can't wait to dig into them for the holidays. THANK YOU!!! read more

This new Patisserie is just what Placerville needed! Everything is delicious and Gluten free! The decor in shop is super cute. French inspired dessert's. Gluten free breads too! read more

Our neighbor stopped by on the way back from Tahoe and was so kind to bring us a couple of boxes of the amazing pastries. EVERY single pastry that we tried from Flourless was soooo delicious! These were the very best we have ever tried! I only wish that we lived nearby so that we could go there every week! read more

This place ... AMAZING!!!! If you didn't know it was gluten free, you wouldn't ever guess. But I ate it with no ill effects and yep. It's for real. What a gift to those of us who can't eat gluten! These treats aren't just good for gluten free, they are the best I've had of their kind, even before I had to drop the gluten. To the creator and sharer of this wonderfulness, sincere thanks from all of us gluten free folks. I thought I'd given up such things forever. Was worth it not to be miserable. But this is better. I'm telling everyone about this place. Please stay in business in Placerville forever. read more

Flourless just opened on main-street and I couldn't be happier! I love to see businesses introducing inclusive food options for those with allergies or specific diets. I got a lemon lavender scone and it was lovely! With small bits of lavender and lemon inside, the scone was not dry as you'd expect. It had a soft and subtle taste of both the lavender and lemon with perfect brown edges. I'm so excited to try more from this business, but get it while it's hot because they sell out quick! read more

Unfortunately I have celiac disease. Fortunately for me, I live near Flourless Patisserie. I have tried DOZENS of gluten free bakeries all over the west coast...Flourless has them all beat. Everything here is so well balanced, flavorful, and rich. One of the first things I did during wedding planning was reach out and make sure Flourless would be available to make the desserts I could not recommend Flourless Patisserie enough!! read more

Amazing products! Don't let the "flourless" concern you. The offerings are delish! Be there early in the day as they often sell out!

For my birthday we did a pizza night with Flourless! It was amazing! Just look at the thick crust on this gluten free pizza! We got to choose what we wanted on the pizza as well, but I could have just eaten the crust all day honestly! Not only did we have the best gluten free pizza ever, but we also got to choose desserts! Wine also is included, but I am pregnant so we had delicious mock-tails instead! The experience was amazing and the food was even better! read more

My wife and I have come to the bakery, twice, after looking online to see if they are open. When we arrived, both times, they have been closed. It surely would have been nice for the website to have indicated that they would be closed. We wouldn't have driven the 40 minutes it took to get there. read more

5+5+5!!! I prefer not to eat wheat, but I am not celiac. Actually, I prefer not to eat grains or sugar BUT you gotta a live a little! This place makes it worth it! Everything I 've had was 5+ stars delicious! I had the little rummy cakes, the chocolate raspberry cake slices (vegan!), the puff pastry wrapped brie with pesto and the eclairs. Wow they were all super gourmet and good! I want to get some savory flavors of the galletas but have not hit that timing yet. Such a perfect Patisserie it's unbelievable and it's wheat free! Hope they open more days soon. read more

Fantastic gluten-free pastries, out of this world!! So easy - we purchased online, set a request-by date, and met locally to pick up the goodies! We got doughnuts, focaccia, muffins, and cream puffs. I still cant believe they were gluten-free! Very highly recommend!! read more

Richard baked a fantastic GF chocolate Birthday cake for my girlfriend and her kids,(me too)! It was one of the most delicious cakes, moist enough but definitely not dry and had the perfect cream frosting. He had it ready the day before I needed it so all ok. I'd definitely go back to Flourless for our next cake!! read more

We ordered the Carrot Cake for Easter and it was amazing. I cannot wait to try their other Gluten Free choices. Highly recommend Richard and Flourless- what a great local find. read more

I've tasted most of their products and they are all fantastic! The snickerdoodles are one of the best I've ever had, they're gluten free but no way can you notice the difference. Give them a try, you won't be disappointed! read more
