Wild Thyme Cafe & Bakery

I had heard about a place in Wichita called Wild Thyme Cafe & Bakery so I decided to stop by and try some baked goods this weekend.  I got a frosted sugar cookie, brownie, and a dinner roll.  There wasn't much selection when I got there because it was like 3:50 on Saturday afternoon and they close at 4 for the weekend.

This is half the cookie I got.  It was a butterfly.  I decided that I should take a picture of it before I ate it all.  It is AMAZING!  I highly recommend their sugar cookies.  The cookie was a basic sugar cookie taste.  But the frosting is wonderful.  It has a really good flavor with a hint of lemon maybe.  YUMMY!  I also have to say that I enjoy the cookie being decorated so beautifully.  Some things that are gluten free are not appetizing to look at let alone eat.  So it feels good to have a place to get beautiful and delicious treats.  If you are ever near Wild Thyme you have to stop.  I have not had a chance to try my brownie or roll.  Both smell good if that counts.
I got a copy of the menu and they have salads that come with gluten free bread.  They can also make several types of sandwiches with gluten free bread.  It also says that they have cupcakes, cookies, bars, brownies, pies, and cakes they can make gluten free.  I'm assuming that since gluten free is just an option and not the norm that most of this stuff is exposed to cross-contamination with regular wheat flour.  So be aware of that.

I'm definitely looking forward to going back and trying other things.

I also stopped at Whole Foods in Wichita.  Not the real Whole Foods but a locally owned chain in Wichita.  They have a HUGE selection of gluten free products if you haven't stopped there.

I also read about an interesting product in a magazine this week.  They are called No Oodles.  They are noodles made from yam flour and are gluten free and apparently have no calories.  I'd like to try these too but they are only available at select stores right now.  I believe the closest one is the real Whole Foods in Kansas City (not the chain of Whole Foods in Wichita).  I'm hoping to get there in a couple weeks.  I'm also interested to see what that chain of Whole Foods has available for gluten free products.  I've read they have a good selection also.
