Well I know where I am booking my vacation next summer!  It has to be Hampton Beach just so that I can be a frequent visitor of  Buzz’s Bakery & Take-Out Cafe just 5 minutes up the road (77 Lafayette Road, Route 1) in North Hampton, NH.  This dedicated gluten-free bakery offers an incredible assortment of sweets as well as savories.  Its founder, Steve “Buzz” Scaturro has celiac disease himself and seems to know just what foods we miss the most. 

His pastry selection varies but on any given day you may find cookies, muffins, danish, scones, coffee cakes, cinnamon rolls, brownie pie and even granola! (Note-gluten containing items are sold here too but brought in from an outside vendor)  Many of the gluten-free products are also dairy-free such as the brownies, pizza crusts and breads as well as some of the muffins (some are brushed with melted butter before baking).  In addition, prepared soups and dinners are available for purchase.  These also vary but some include pulled pork, meatloaf and chicken parmesan.  The homemade parmesan breadcrumbs do contain dairy due to the use of Romano cheese, but this can be special ordered ahead of time and Steve will make it dairy-free for you. 

There is such a “buzz” over Steve’s delicious breads that he is formulating dry mixes to sell so more people can partake in these gratifying breads.  His foods are also sold seasonally at New Hampshire farmers’ markets in Durham, Exeter, Rye, Hampton and Portsmouth.
