Unrefined Bakery

Super happy I found this place the other day online and made the trip from downtown!
I loaded up and left with a gigantic bag stuffed for $ 70, which I thought was a pretty good deal considering what all I got. I basically bought one of almost everything. Plus the girl gave me some cookies to try, which was very sweet and appreciated. The cookies were amazing! I actually ate half of them while sitting in traffic on the way home. The other half have been calling my name all day.
Then I tried the spicy chex mix stuff — addicting.
This morning I ate the carrot cake cupcake for breakfast (don’t judge). It was easily the best GF cupcake I’ve ever had and was better than most wheat ones. If that icing was the non-​dairy one, I’m a convert. My birthday is in December and I was already online looking at cake options. Chocolate with the vanilla frosting maybe?
I have the sandwich bread and a pumpkin walnut muffin in the fridge for work tomorrow and I’ll try to remember to update the review. The one thing I usually hate about GF is too much tapioca flour, which I think is disgusting. I haven’t noticed it in any of the things I’ve eaten so far.
The only negative thing I have to say so far is that knowing this place is here won’t help me in my quest to stay in my smaller (I’ve been on a diet) pants.

We love their original location near White Rock Lake (Buckner Blvd), and I’ve written several review updates gushing about them. :) But this experience takes the cake … literally!
It was my birthday and my boyfriend asked me to open what I thought was a birthday cake … turns out he had asked them to write «Will You Marry Me» on the cake! He can’t stop raving about his experience, from placing the order, to seeing the owner lady personally deliver the cake to this location (from the main location where the cake was made presumably), to seeing the gorgeous rose piping & letter font.
Thank you Unrefined! Not only did you make it possible for us to enjoy an amazingly delicious cake on our special day (him celiac & us both lactose-​intolerant), but you did it with such style and attention to detail!

Yum, yum, yum. I had a carrot cake cupcake with cream cheese — my wife had the strawberry cupcake. Both were awesome and we left singing unrefined praises!

Stopped in recently with my heart set on TuLus, but as we pulled up, to our surprise, this new bakery was here and TuLus was nowhere to be found. Because we had traveled about 20+ miles, we decided to give them a shot.
We ordered 5 cupcakes– chocolate and brown velvet, and a loaf of gluten free bread for $ 32. The cupcakes were just OK. The owners claimed they won the best taste award throughout Dallas and that theirs was the only GF. I’m sorry but I have a hard time believing that. My chocolate muffin tasted more like a bran/​flax muffin and my son didn’t even want to eat his brown velvet. We also found the icing tasted «gritty». The cupcakes were moist though. I felt they were a bit overpriced and overall left feeling the drive was not worth it. The bread is very tasty, but I’m going to purchase a $ 25 breadmaker and experiment making my own. The owners were very nice though and took time to allow us to taste bread products and educate us.
Also, we found it strange that TuLus disappeared without notice and this place popped up, but served similiar food. Coincidental? Hmm…
Where did TuLu’s go??? I miss you!!!
