The Cackling Goose Market in Sackville is a great place to shop for organic, gluten free and…read morevegetarian foods, formerly Jacob's Larder. While in Sackville, we stopped in here for an afternoon break to check out the place.
Located near Mt. Allison University, this unique market (in an old yellow house) offers a good selection of organic and gluten free groceries, health foods, and vegetarian products. They carry vitamins, dietary supplements, fair trade organic coffee, teas, cheeses, chutneys, salsa, buckwheat flour, bread mixes, lentils, flaxseed, organic baking mixes, organic molasses, ceramic teapots, handcrafted goods, and much more.
The back of the market houses a cozy gluten free bakery cafe counter offering fresh gluten free & organic baked goods (focaccia thin buns, cinnamon buns, muffins, cookies, cakes, breads), sandwiches, soups, salads, fair trade organic coffees espresso, lattes, and real fruit smoothies. The menu is gluten free and vegetarian with vegan and dairy free options. There's seating along the back window and outside covered patio seating in front of the market.
Before heading out, we shared two gingerbread cookies (organic & gluten free) for our light snack. The cookies were coated with granular sugar on the top which had a soft and very chewy dense texture and overall not sugary sweet.
This fine "Goose" is definitely worth checking out!
