Gluten-Free Goodies

05/30/2026

I picked up some new cookie cutters that I’m excited to put to good use!

This week’s batch was heart-shaped gingerbread cookies. My kitchen smelled heavenly 🥰

The bakery's new logo is coming in for landing 🚀

I'm also working on updating the price list to reflect all the new goodies available- stay tuned!

For our friends who use alternative text:
The logo is shaped like a rounded window. The top arch is made of two curved lines of text. The top reads "Gluten-Free Goodies", and the inner line is "by Catherine EM Boucher". Green branches standing upright curve up from the bottom on both sides to complete the arch. The words "Handmade in Umatilla, OR" stretch across the bottom, connecting the base of the two branches. A baking whisk is in the open center space of the arch.

Save the date! Catch me and Merry Meridional at the Book Sale and Craft Fair. May 2 at the Irrigon Library.

The FOIL book sale and craft fair is only a month away! Come see us and buy a few books, or some yummy baked goods, maybe something for that wonderful woman you know as "MOM" or maybe something for your wife, or grandma, or maybe just because you like craft fairs!

What's your go-to cookbook or recipe blog? I'm always trying new ones, but these are some of my tried and true favorites! With how finicky gluten- and dairy-free baking can be, it's essential to have one where you can trust that any recipe will work like a charm.

Fun fact: My gingerbread cookies, chai donuts, and savory scones are inspired by recipes from these! (Delightful Mom Food - Gluten Free Recipes + Wellness, "Baked Donuts For Everyone" and Mama Knows Gluten Free, respectively.)

Cookie cutter sleuths, where you at? What do you think this gingerbread cookie shape is? I'd like to *believe* it's Santa (see what I did there? ;) ) but maybe it could also pass as a little dinosaur. What alternative shape do you see?

Either way, I promise they're deeeeelicious! Santas, stars, and trees make for a perfect cozy winter treat. Or make an afternoon of decorating cookies!

$2 each, $5 for 3, and $20 for a dozen. Shoot me a message or give me a call to place an order.

Video descriptions
Video 1: An oven door opens and a baking tray of chocolate chip cookie dough balls is slid onto the oven rack. A hand reaches above the camera for another tray and slides it into the oven next to the first one. (no sound)
Video 2: A hand is in mid-air holding a measuring cup filled with chocolate chips. In slow motion, the chips are poured into a blue bowl on the counter below. The bowl has raw cookie dough. (Sound: Uneven plinking noises as the chips hit the glass mixing bowl.)
