Jennifer Lee's Gourmet Bakery

"I read so much about how great the baked items were and decided to give the shop a try. As a vegan and baker myself, I was sadly disappointed. I ordered a red velvet cupcake. Upon first tasting the frosting, it was crusted over and overtly sweet without any hint of a cream cheese flavor. If this was meant to be the original ermine frosting, it failed at that as well. The cupcake itself was hard topped, stiff and dense. While I do understand this is gluten free, I have never baked anything gluten in my life that was this hard and dense. This cupcake was not springy at all and when pressed, the oil impression is quite evident. Maybe this was an off day for the bakers? Not sure, but I would definitely take these off the shelf if I were the baking team. This Bakery is a no go for me."

"Very nice staff and delicious goodies!! Got a wonderful assortment of treats here and a breakfast sandwich. Happy to have an entirely vegan gluten free spot with such variety from banana bread, whoopie pies, mac and cheese, to calzones."

"Jennifer is a life saver! I needed allergen free pies and inquired with dozens of pie shops/bakeries and she was the only one willing to meet my needs. Pies were not on her daily menu and she still accommodated my request. She even threw in an extra pie to our order for free. She was wicked nice, and the pie tasted amazing! Just as good, if not better than any regular pies I've had. Thank you Jennifer!!!"

"Jennifer Lee’s is a must visit for me anytime I’m in Boston. I have to go, and get many treats. I love all of her baked goods. I am not even vegan, but had to give these a try when I was roaming around the Boston Public Market. It was love at first bite. Anytime I have visited, the staff has always been so kind, helpful, and informative. I have also heard their interactions with other customers. With such a specialty bakery, of course people are going to have questions. And sometimes people can be difficult. The staff is so patient, helpful, and informative. Amazing customer service. This bakery is Top 9 allergen free, and vegan. You’ll see some negative reviews. Don’t listen to the haters. Things are going to taste different when some of the “standard baking ingredients” are replaced. This is coming from me, who has a huge sweet tooth, and many baked goods from many places. Jennifer Lee’s bakery tastes amazing. When you go to The North End, there are no vegan options for desserts. NeverMind gluten and allergy free options. Jennifer changed that. 100% absolutely recommend trying this bakery. Best vegan treats in Boston!"

"11/10!! The service was so awesome! Gluten free friends, everything is gluten free!! Vegan too! The desserts looked so good. It was 11 am when I went so I got a breakfast sandwich. They have vegan eggs and vegan sausage. Thank you so much for the delicious sandwich. It was so good!! I think I was talking with the owner, she was so nice!! Loved chatting with her. Turns out we have family from the same place. I’ll be back next time I’m in Boston! (:"
