Moon Maiden has some delicious treats! I haven't gotten to try the savory or the breads yet but I love her sweets! :PThere's not very much room inside though, only one table so expect to take whatever you get on the go. Owner and workers are very helpful & friendly. I love that there is a bakery where I don't have to worry about what's in it because I know that here I can eat everything! Being gluten/dairy free. I also really love how they make there stuff from complete scratch, so awesome.
My soon to be wife is gluten free and really enjoys the tasty treats made here! I like them as well and can’t believe how good they taste! If your looking for gut friendly treats, this is the place for you. Thanks for saving the day Moon Maiden!
Came here on a Saturday. I had a cousin come into town and asked me to take him back here. The place has a nice feel to it. I can see why they have so many great reviews.
Very happy I found this place for safe GF pastries! Little bitty shop tucked in a hall of other businesses. Sign clearly posted outside hall and out front of shop. No bathrooms in the business. Counter and cooler is set up with yummy desserts and informative signs. A little pricey. Amazing service.
When we discovered the gf sourdough our lives completely changed. So grateful that Charlottesville has a bakery like this! Her bread is a staple in our house now.

Really yummy food that doesn't hurt my tummy, and everyone there is so nice!
My husband and I needed a vegan wedding cake for our wedding in May 2019, and we approached Sidney, having had her yummy vegan treats both at the Charlottesville farmer's market and at her bakery. (As of May 2019, she was also the only baker in the Charlottesville area who could do a vegan wedding cake, at least according to my research -- go Sidney!) We had a three tier cake with lemon poppyseed cake and lemon icing for the outer two tiers and almond cake and maple pecan icing for the middle tier. Those flavor combinations might sound a little weird, but they were incredible! Apart from the flavors, I absolutely loved the fresh flowers from a local florist adorning the cake. But what I appreciated most about my wedding cake was that I could fully enjoy it without feeling heavy after eating it, because it was actually healthy! I am sensitive to sugar, and I can crash pretty quickly after bakery treats, especially ones with icing. I didn't want that to happen at my wedding. I also didn't want icing, in particular, made of vegan butter, which is just a bunch of oil and shortening. Sidney's cake was delicious and indulgent and beautiful, but healthy and uplifting at the same time! I didn't have to compromise.
