A wonderful Gluten Free treasure trove in Christchurch. They have a multitude of baked goods, including bread that (for the first few days) you can eat without having to toast first.

Can also ship to Nelson, Otago, South Canterbury & West Coast
Pros
A Totally Gluten Free Bakery!
A “TGF” (totally gluten free) flour mix-2 kg for $10.50; Makes cooking/baking a breeze!
GF sliced bread (that freezes well, and when fresh, you can eat untoasted without it crumbling)
Pizza & pizza shells
Pies
Muffins
Cakes, can make to order
Yummy gingerbread cookies (stars), perfect accompaniment for a cup of tea
Donuts!
Cons
Gingerbread stars used to come in packs of 8, and now come in packs of 4 without a price decrease :-(
Recently changed their banana muffin recipe, for the worse in my opinion.
Bottom Line
Have taken to making a lot more of my own things, but still stick with them for reasonably priced good bread, and goodies when the cravings hit.
Ingredients
Also make dairy-free products
Price Paid - $

This bakery is truly fantastic, I have Coeliac’s disease myself and a son with Autism who is on a Gluten Free / Dairy Free diet - not only are all the products GF but the majority DF as well, which has made life so much easier for our family. Everything tastes terrific and having the reassurance that there can be no cross contamination as everything is Gluten Free is great.

This bakery has been a blessing in disguise. I buy my bread from there and recently found the buck wheat and seed loaf - it is the best ever bread - lovely and moist.
Only downside of this bakery is that if you don’t get in early in the day you can miss out.
Their flour is great and reasonably priced too. Scones are delicious - better than anything I have been able to make using gf products.
Staff are friendly too.

This is the best Gluten Free bakery in Christchurch. The food tastes better than regular gluten products. They even have Scones, Pizza Bases, Rolls, Buns, all sorts of delicious breads, ready made pizzas, iced buns etc. Biscuits, and a huge range of other great products.
Being Gluten intolerant is very inconvenient but this bakery makes it a cinch to eat well and feel great!

Huge support for the TGFBakery. The ladies there are super helpful and friendly, and really supportive too. Their prices are great, and they are committed to keeping prices real for us. They offer a great delivery service to Rangiora on Wednesdays for only $1 extra.
Try their dark buckwheat and seed loaf. A must if you’ve been missing the multi-grained breads.

Agree - this bakery is fantastic. Their cheese scones are my favourite, but the Boston Bun is pretty good too… the best thing of all is their prices are reasonable, especially compared to the crazy amount it can often cost for gluten free treats. Definitely worth a visit!
