Washington state coffee house chain Forza Coffee has teamed with Granny Lala's Baking Company of Tacoma, Wash., to offer gluten-free, allergy-friendly, vegan baked goods.
Forza, which has more than 23 locations in the Pacific Northwest and Colorado, initially will offer the gluten-free bakery items at nine Washington state locations. Products will include carrot cake, mini muffins, double chocolate brownies, cookies, and chocolate quinoa cake with chocolate ganache.
The baked goods, which also are free of dairy, egg, nut, soy and corn, will be individually packaged to avoid cross-contamination at the Forza locations.
In addition, Granny Lala will be hosting nutrition seminars at some Forza locations to help participants learn about food intolerances, dietary restrictions and recipe substitutions.
