About Us

Welcome to Melinda's

Thank you for visiting! We’re so happy you’re here! We at Melinda’s Gluten Free believe that no one should have to compromise taste to meet dietary needs and preferences. We strive for pastries that are as delicious as they are inclusive, because we understand the importance of quality, gluten-free alternatives. Enjoy looking through our menu and we look forward to serving you!

Who We Are

We are the only exclusively gluten/peanut-free bakery in Santa Cruz County. Providing you with a freshly baked pastry that meets your allergy needs is our mission, and creating these delicious, gluten-free goods is our passion. We are happy to have found you and we hope you enjoy our treats as much as we enjoy making them! 

Our Promise

We bake our goods fresh every day to give you the best local patisserie experience we can. From flaky puff pastries to delectable doughnuts, we give our best every day to provide you with the delicious baked goods you deserve. We make just about anything from marzipan to fruit fillings, and all of our items are made from scratch and on site, so we can control exactly what goes into each pastry. At Melinda’s Gluten-Free we are uncompromising in our promise to maintain an allergen-friendly facility, and to be your friend, when gluten isn’t. :)
