Tacoma Bakery Trims Allergens, Keeps Flavor

Lara Weihs believes all kids deserve a birthday cake that won’t make them sick.

She’s made it her mission to provide that simple slice of happiness to youngsters of all ages – even octogenarians – whose dietary restrictions make regular baked goods a no-no.

Weihs’ Tacoma bakery, Granny Lala’s, is dedicated to crafting cakes and muffins that are free of the most common food allergens: nuts, wheat, soy, corn, dairy, and gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye.
