Vegan & Gluten-Free Desserts - White Noise Coffee

FAQ

Can I Find Vegan Desserts Near Me in NYC?

White Noise Coffee now has a wonderful vegan bakery near me with locations in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Vegan desserts near me in NYC are sweets that don’t contain any animal products or byproducts. For starters, this means no lard, milk, butter or eggs, no cheese, gelatin or honey. It’s a true talent to bake or create a dessert without using these basics. So, when we set out to complement our extraordinary selection of locally roasted coffee with a full-serve menu, we looked for a pastry chef who could master the alternatives and know things like how to find a suitable substitute for one egg, which may be:

One-fourth cup of applesauce or mashed banana
One tablespoon of ground flax seed whisked with three tablespoons of water and set for five minutes
One tablespoon of chia seed mixed with three tablespoons of water, set for ten minutes

Milk products have come a long way for vegans too, making dairy-free desserts a little easier to manage. Same goes for gluten-free desserts near me in New York City with all the alternative flour sources available. Add the talent of a creative baker and you’ve got one juicy choice after choice of fresh pastries from which to choose at White Noise Coffee.

What Kind of Gluten-Free Desserts Near Me Are Available?

Gluten-free desserts don’t have any grains, like wheat, rye or barley. This can make baking gluten-free desserts a real challenge. Most baking involves flour, which is normally made from wheat. Wheat and other plant flours have gluten, which gives the dough structure and helps it stay together. For gluten-free desserts, the flour must come from another source, such as:

Almonds
Coconut
Buckwheat

Most alternatives are better for you than bleached white flour. Those made with nuts or legumes have more protein. There’s also a very high-protein flour called cricket flour if you dare give it a try. It’s good and unnoticeable — our bakers may try it sometime — but probably won’t share that secret cookie ingredient unless you ask.
