Every tried Quinoa?  Quinoa was important to the diet of pre-Columbian Andean civilizations.  It is considered a superfood.  It is a good source of dietary fiber and phosphorus and is high in magnesium and iron.  It is also a source of calcium, and thus is useful for those who are lactose intolerant.
 
So...we are bringing our fabulous carrot cake this week just in time for Easter.  Made with Quinoa...it is a great desert that you can feel good about.  (Just ask our customers that purchase this cake every week!)
 
Lastly...stop by and check out our Vegan Gluten Free* Easter Basket.  Filled with some wonderful baked goods including a bag of Artisans Gallery and Caf� special coffee!  Sure to be loved by anyone who still believes in the Easter Bunny.
 
This week's selection includes:
�         Gluten Free* Almond Honey Bread
�         Gluten Free* Muesli Bread
�         Gluten Free* Traditional Toffee.
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Carrot Cake
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Crumb Cake
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Double Chocolate Chip Cookies with Dried Cherries
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Chocolate Chip Cookies
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Pumpkin Seed Granola
�         Vegan Gluten Free* Easter Brown Sugar Cookies.
