"Thank you seems so small to say for what you are doing! I have a peanut tree nut son & it is soooooooooooooooooo difficult to find that are peanut free or if i find peanut free it is still processed in a facility. This is his favorite time of the year and he loves candy corn. We haven't been able to find some until now. Thanks for your dedication & commitment so our children can feel like a kids again! Thanks also for having your company in the USA!!!!!!!!!!!
Best regards." -Cathy
"I just wanted to thank you for running such an incredible business. I heard about your bakery recently and was eager to pick up some basic items for Thanksgiving. I am the only one in my family with dietary restrictions and normally I just eat the vegtables and turkey but after hearing about A & J Bakery decided this year would be different. Then a very close friend died on Friday and I dreaded the thought of Thanksgiving. I almost didn't come into the store tonight. It was the day before Thanksgiving and pouring rain. I was barely functioning and the idea of even trying to figure out what I could eat was overwhelming. A & J's Bakery made that easy for the 1st time since being diagnosed a few years ago. Not only that a very kind worker placed an extra item in my bag to try. I thanked her but automatically assumed I couldn't eat it like everything else over the last few years. When you have so many in tolerances it just becomes normal. Well, tonight I smiled because for the first time in a few years I sat down and ate cake with frosting. No gluten, no dairy and no nuts. And it came at the perfect time. I really needed that extra smile. There is no question that I will be back. Thank you for your kindness tonight and for making safe foods that actually taste good." -Katie
"I just ordered some Candy Corn for my son who has many allergies. I just wanted to say Thank You for having a Bakery for people who have allergies. It brings a smile to Noah's face knowing that he can have a special treat. It warms my heart looking at his smile. Thanks again and we can't wait to get our Candy Corn!
God Bless." -Christine
"Your gluten free stuffing mix is the best i have EVER had!! It is so hard to find the perfect mix that doesn't fall apart or turn to mush! This mix couldn't have been any better. Thought you could use some praise on it." -Bethany
"Last year we bought a typical gingerbread house from the store. We had nut free candies, but the house was made on a nut line! My daughter had hives everywhere! She was so upset that her days of gingerbread making were over, until we found your site! It arrived last week WITH advent calendar! I was in tears as that was yet another tradition her brother always had that she couldn't. She was so over the moon happy I even allowed her to catch up and eat 10 candies! Thank you for being in this business to allow allergy kids feel NORMAL. Merry Christmas to you all as you have made my little girl VERY happy!" _Diane
" Thanks for making your gingerbread house kits! It brought a lot of smiles to this family all the way in Washington. I'm so glad we didn't have to give up this tradition when we gave up wheat!" -Shannon
" Wow! I purchased a Groupon recently as a friend was recently given the news of NO MORE GLUTEN; it turns out A & J has gluten-free and nut-free products for anyone needing to reduce nuts in their life (if only that worked at family holidays! Ha ha...). I was hesitant to try it myself as I am a white flour/white sugar girl myself, but one of the things I bought was the "Party Brownie" which is a GINORMOUS brownie - seriously, about 3-4" high - with marshmallows on top. It was like fudge. Now THAT is love.
I think they do shipping of almost all products as well, so if you can't make it in, you can still get your goods. Thanks A & J!!!!!" -Margot
"WOW - I love this place too. Just discovered it today, when I started to think I was gluten-intolerant (stomach aches etc.) I tried the frozen breads from the grocery store and they pretty much suck, but I figured that was all there was. Not So. A & J has Everything a GF person could ever want. They are also nut-free and sell dairy-free stuff too, if that is your desire. I got bread, hamburger rolls, cookies, bread crumbs and baking flour (all GFree). The cookie was to die for. I got home and tried the bread and a roll and simply could not BELIEVE how delicious it was - ESPECIALLY compared to frozen grocery store GF foods. You actually can't compare them. The A & J was freshly baked, palatable, delicious gluten free baked goods. I would buy them even if I were not gluten intolerant (which I'm not sure I am, this is just an experiment!!). They also sell pizza strips, pastries, pie and cakes, frozen GF meals, a pizza dough ready for the oven, GF bread crumbs and croutons, and are now experimenting with garlic bread! They are at 1458 Park Avenue in Cranston - not far from Atwood Avenue - in a tiny little newish looking shopping center. I can't say enough good things about these folks. Their calorie count info MAY not be accurate, because it just sounded too good to be true, but if it is, I'm gonna shop there even if I decide I am not gluten intolerant. A & J ships all over the country and are well-known. The owners are Johnson & Wales grads, and have taken additional courses in cooking for allergic folks like probably half of us are. I urge you to give this fine family bakery a try - or recommend them to your allergic friends. You seriously will not regret it." -Beverly
