We are not a nut-free bakery. Some of our desserts do contain nuts, and while we take every precaution to prevent cross-contamination, all treats are made in the same kitchen. If you have a nut allergy, please let us know when placing your order so we can properly sanitize and handle your desserts with extra care.
