Our product was tested and found to be in compliance with the FDA gluten-free requirement. FDA requirements can be found here.
Even though our product is considered Celiac safe according to FDA parameters, we disclose how batches are handled since we do produce wheat-containing products in the same oven and facility. Below are precautions taken:
- Dedicated baking days for gluten-free batches to avoid cross-contamination
- Washing of all surfaces prior to preparing gluten-free batches
- With the exception of the oven, we use dedicated equipment for GF batches (ex pans & utensils)
Gluten-free flour (Sweet White Rice Flour, Whole Grain Brown Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Whole Grain Sorghum Flour, Tapioca Flour, Xanthan Gum), nuts (almond or pistachio), honey, ghee, eggs, olive oil, baking soda, salt
*no additional sugars
Stays fresh for over a month!
Because we make our batches fresh every week and we soak our Libyan baklava in 100% pure honey (instead of sugar syrup), it acts as a natural preservative and the baklava can remain fresh for over a month, giving you room to savor the flavors for months to come.
Depending on the day your order is placed, it will take a total of 4-10 business days to receive your order.
It takes us 4-8 business days to bake and package and 2-3 additional business days for USPS to deliver.
Keep in a closed container and store in the freezer to maintain freshness.
If you're not satisfied with your order, reach out to us at hello@oeabakery.com within 30 days and we're happy to give a full refund.
Our Story
Started from a dorm
Nour is originally from Libya and she informally founded Oea Bakery from her college dorm room in July 2019.
She used to sell baklava at a Farmer's market and to friends via social media. It is now run alongside her family in Denver, CO.
We're so excited to grow our small business with you! :)
