Andy's Pastry Shop

I had one of Andy's cookies today at UIHC. Yum! My first encounter with his pastries. Grateful for a gluten-free dairy free option!

Where to begin? I have been making my own desserts for years because unfortunately it’s so hard to find things that are both vegan and gluten free. I first had one of Andy’s cookies and had to question whether it was really vegan and gf or not because it was that good! I’ve since had multiple different cookie flavors, puppy chow and even a whole cheesecake. They have all been so delicious! His cookies are full of flavor and so soft. The puppy chow tastes just like regular puppy chow. And the cheesecake is the closest thing I’ve found to regular cheesecake. My family who has no food allergies has even loved the treats from Andy’s! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for delicious treats!!

I met Andy at the Cedar Rapids Farmer's Market and he was such a kind person! His customer service is top notch. I told him I had been struggling to find yummy gluten free desserts and he had me try one of his sugar cookies on the spot. It was delicious! I ended up buying his puppy chow (also very yummy) and a chocolate chip muffin. Y'all, this was the best gluten free chocolate chip muffin I've ever had! You honestly could not tell the difference between this muffin and a "regular" muffin. The only critique I have for it is that it was a bit crumbly, so make sure to eat it over a plate or something. But it was the perfect texture and taste and exactly what I needed in a muffin. I will 100% be a repeat customer!
