These items contain no wheat, gluten, or common allergens, making them ideal for individuals with dietary restrictions. Each product combines nutritional science with gourmet flavors to deliver both health benefits and exceptional taste.

Lovely place with amazing treats - both GF and Vegan They went out of their way to make sure we had just the right pie for our early Thanksgiving celebration. Thank you so very much - everyone just loved the apple crumble pie we got!

I have celiac and recently moved to Milwaukee, and I was so excited to find this bakery was so close to me! It is really reassuring to know these are baked in a GF kitchen and there isnt risk of cross-contamination. I tried the cashew swirl and a strawberry chocolate donut, and both were outstanding. They were both much more moist than most GF baked goods, and its incredible to think theyre vegan too! Id go here even if I didnt have dietary restrictions. Im excited to try everything else in the pastry case!

The prices can be a bit steep which is the only drawback here. I personally don't mind if products use processed sugar as long as it's vegan, but I'm sure it's important to some! That being said everything we got was really nice! The apple pie bar was transcedant and so was the turtle brownie, both of which I'm craving. I also got a cinnamon bun that was ok but I think I'm learning I'm more of a "it has to be warm and absolutely covered in icing" cinnamon bun person.
it took around $16~ for 3 items, which surprised me as they don't have price

So do I love pretty much everything at Blooming Lotus? Yes. But do I also hate pretty much everything there? Also YES. Why? Because I. Can't. Stop. Thinking. About. It!! I was so prepared to be disappointed the first time I came here. Like I walked in, saw the "no gluten no dairy no eggs no soy no nothing" signs, and thought "cool, so this is going to taste like cardboard, ok". But then, not only did everything NOT taste like cardboard- it also tasted like....Dreams? Or rainbows? Or maybe just a beautiful world filled with vegan buttercream and pastry? I think you
