Cloud 9 Specialty Bakery

Fantastic desserts from Cloud 9 that are not only gluten-​free but available for delivery! Everything was both delicious and adorable. Pricing is very reasonable, too and staff seemed very helpful with a substitute. Definitely highly recommended.

I’m so glad I gave them another chance. The first time the cupcakes were dry, but I could taste potential. The crumb was perfect. The flavour of the cake was perfect. The flavour of the icing was great as well. So I gave them another chance. I got chocolate peanut butter, pistachio and chocolate. The icing to cake ratio is perfect. I appreciate non-​stingy bakers! The icing tastes like the flavour is says it is. Not artificial or overly sweet, like many icings can be. The cake itself was moist & dense. You feel like you had cake, but not like a brick is sitting in your stomach. The obvious question. Does it taste gluten free? Not in the least bit. I don’t know how they did it but they found the right formula. I also tried the chocolate chip cookie and the ginger cookie, but they have the more traditional gluten free taste. I was just looking for a good cupcake place and I found it. Customer service is friendly, fast and efficient. Plus they usually have samples for customers to try.

I bought six different flavours of the gluten free chocolate cupcakes. I shared with friends and tried all of them. All of us liked them. The gluten free chocolate cupcakes were very fluffy and moisturized. I bought a chocolate banana muffin as well. It was delicious. These gluten free baked goods tasted better than I thought.
There is a few free street parking spots in front of the bakery. Usually the bakery will put out an a-​frame on the street, so drivers and pedestrians can see its exact location on the street.
The interior design of the bakery is cozy. I like it personally. It is like ones in downtown Vancouver, but this location is in New West.
The prices and service are reasonable and acceptable. I tried some samples of the gluten free baked goods. That’s great, so at least I knew if the food tasted good or bad before buying any.
Tip: buying six cupcakes or more is tax free.

I just experienced the most amazing customer service ever! I had ordered a blueberry pie for the next day but unfortunately they were unable to do it as it was a special order. However, since they were not able to inform me about it while I was at work, they went out of their way to make it for me. I really appreciated it. Thank you!

I stumbled across this randomly located bakery in New West a few years ago. I tried a few of their bars and quite enjoyed them especially considering I don’t actually need gluten free baked goods I can tolerate gluten just fine. My first above and beyond experience was when I called almost a year and a half ago and asked for quite the number of bars that I wanted to deliver to an office I was visiting that afternoon. I called in the morning to find the location was actually closed on Mondays but I believe it was one of the owners that picked up and did me the favour of having fresh bars ready to go for the afternoon even though they were CLOSED. That is exceptional service. Due to this I would always make a point to stop by for my indulgences here and there and whenever we needed work related or bigger ordered goods this was my go too. My second exceptional experience was on a Friday afternoon when a friend and I stopped in for a cupcake. We were greeted by an extremely outgoing fellow who we later found out was one of the owners. He spent some time chatting with us about the bakery and then handed us copious amounts of free goods for us to take home and try from their mixes to their breads. He explained they did all there testing out of this bakery and it was important for them to get feedback. It was extremely generous. Love this place always a good experience thanks guys!

Great place to buy bread and other comfort food. All time my favourite bakery where I can purchase Gluten and Wheat free bakings. There not a single thing I dont like.
Parking seems to be bit challenging at time as the bakery is located between two motor car repair shops.
People are quite passionate about their work so you can expect best customer service.

Being celiac I can’t eat regular bread/​flour products. Big chain supermarkets have a small selection of gluten free items, but getting good breads/​pastries etc is tough.
That’s where Cloud 9 comes in. Everything they make is awesome (I’ve literally tried it all). My favorite are their ‘energy bars’ and cinnamon rolls. So good!
Nice staff and decent location. Parking is on the street. Watch their hours though I’ve come before during what I thought were normal business hours and they were closed.

I’m coeliac, so have no choice but to eat Gluten free. Luckily I live in Vancouver, because if I lived closed to Cloud 9 I would eat something from here every day and weigh 300lbs.
Everything is good. Their savoury buns are crispy on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside, their cinnamon buns are BETTER than ones with gluten in them, cupcakes moist, icing sweet and silky, brownies chocolately and melt-​in-​your-​mouth yummy, their lemon cake is fabulous. I could go on.

Amazing Rich Moist Cupcakes!!!
Ok Ive been wanting to update my review because this place does deserve 5 stars! Taste of those cupcakes are unbelievably moist and not too sweet the icing is right amount of sweetness. If you’re GF or not hands-​down my fave cupcakes!

Best place ever! I love their Cinnamon buns and flower mix. This Is my gluten free go to place for all my sweets.

Love this place, awesome treats and wonderful staff. I’ve tried their cupcakes, focaccia, and cheese and green onion bun and they were all delicious. Better than most gluten free things I’ve had for sure.

I called Cloud 9 a few days before hosting a birthday party that included 2 celiac guests. They were so friendly and helpful on the phone, giving me suggestions and recommendations. Sent my boyfriend in on the Saturday to pick up the cupcakes, and at the last minute asked him to grab «any savoury loaf» for cheese, etc.
These guys blew the whole party away. The cupcakes were DEMOLISHED and the olive/​cheese loaf they sent him home with was literally gone in 10 minutes. I warmed it in the oven for 5 minutes at 425 and the top crust was the most amazing, crispy, crunchy amazingness. All of our guests raved about this, not just the celiac’s, which goes to prove that good quality and incredible taste are universal. I will definitely be ordering from these guys again, gf guests or not :)

I went there today after it was recommended to me by a friend. I’ve had to be gluten-​free for health reasons for years so I’ve tried just about everything and do a lot of GF baking at home.
I picked up four bars today — Nanaimo, chocolate cheesecake, a date square, and a pecan bar. They were all fantastic! Very rich and not dry or with any odd flavors that you sometimes get from GF treats.
If you would like some really tasty gluten-​free treats it’s worth the trip to New West to go this cute little shop!

Chocolate cupcakes are delish! Picked up a peanut butter chocolate for the husband and he said it was the best peanut butter chocolate morsel he’s ever had. Plus the service is great. :)

Normally I don’t like to review a place after only one visit, but in this case, I’m complete confident that Cloud 9 fully deserves a 5-​star review. You see, Cloud 9 is not only the best gluten free bakery I’ve been to, it’s also one of the best bakeries, period, that I’ve ever been to. No dry, mealy gluten-​free goods here — everything I tried here was as tasty or even better than most wheat flour baked goods I’ve had.
They have generous samples of all the bars that they sell. I tried all of them and loved them all (except the pumpkin cheesecake… meh, not a pumpkin fan). I don’t really recommend doing that, though, as I felt kind of sick with all the sugar afterwards, plus I think the staff got kind of annoyed by it. But they didn’t tell me to knock it off or anything. If you’re reading this, Cloud 9 staff, I’m sorry! Be assured that I will be spending enough at your shop in the coming months to compensate for my initial gluttony.
I ended up coming out with 2 bars, a carrot cake cupcake and a cookie. They were all phenomenal. The carrot cake, particularly, is probably the best carrot cake I’ve ever had, and that includes all the ones I had before going gluten free.
The best part — it only came up to a little over $ 10. Oh, this place is going to be dangerous!
Since I was looking for this information before coming, I’ll leave it as a note to others: there is no seating in the bakery. There is a friendly Starbucks just south of it though, that will give you coffee and allow you to eat your delicious gluten free goodies on their patio.

Where has this bakery been all my life! They’ve done it right and understand their customers.
Smart in-​house marketing, give samples = I bought every sample I tasted!!! Super friendly wants to make me go back, I did go back the following week to try out their sold out Cinnamon buns, ouch. Ouch only because if I continue to visit this place I’ll need to either work out more or start buying bigger clothes.
OK did I mention I can eat gluten! Thank you Cloud 9 for your friendly service and Yummy Treats! I’m spreading the word!!!

First impressions are important and Cloud 9 gets this concept. Walking in the front door an array of pastel colours greet you via the frosted cupcakes front and centre. You can easily see into the rear of the bakery which is also painted in lovely pastel colours. Frankly, the bakery always looks to be spotlessly spic n’ span.
They always have plenty of items to sample: nanaimo bars, lemon bars; cheesecake; cookies; foccacia bread etc.
They make a very unique bacon and cheese scone. It literally has large pieces of cooked bacon inside. Warm it up a bit before eating and it is scrumptious. I’m also a big fan of their focaccia bread. I do believe it is probably the best focaccia I’ve ever eaten.
Apparently Cloud 9 has been in business aproximately 10 months. I live in New West and had never heard of it but discovered it when driving past. On a whim I stoppped in. I am not gluten intolerant but after trying their products, I am now a convert to gluten free and to Cloud 9 Bakery.

OMG the best gluten free cupcake ever. It is so good to be back home and although I just had the best gluten free cupcake in LA at Frosty, I came home to the best gluten free cupcake here locally. My co-​worker bought me a welcome home from Coachella cupcake and also as a late IOU birthday cupcake all the way down in New Westminister. This sweet little shop from what I was told is a gluten free pastry heaven, much better than the Rice Bakery with helpful staff. This is located in New West which is a little far during regular business hours, however, will hit it up on the weekends. The cupcake was so good that I had to close the door of my office and have a private moment to myself. I had the vanilla and chocolate cupcake. The raspberry frosting is the best frosting I have ever had. I think I will be needing those Tums that I found at Coachella after all. If heaven taste like this, I can’t wait to die.
P. S. My co-​worker is not gluten free, even though he is used to my gluten free office baking and he just needed a private moment to himself with the chocolate cheesecake.
P.P.S…I have frosting all over my keyboard.

What’s that? A new gluten free bakery in New Westminster you say? Sign me up!
Inside this classy bakery is some of the best gluten free treats you will find. It is a dedicated gfree facility that makes cookies, squares, cupcakes, muffins, cakes, confections, and bread… oh the bread!
I tried one of their mini focaccia loaves and I was in heaven. You no longer have to settle for crumbly, dry breads that leave you hungry, thirsty, and broken-​hearted. This bakery has evolved with the times and has invented the bread you remember, sans the wheat belly that goes along with it. The «Hello Sunshine» muffins are a yummy and healthy breakfast muffin that remind me of a bran muffin back in the day. The specialty marshmallows, coconut and raspberry flavoured, were delicious. My son devoured his chocolate cupcake with peanut butter frosting, so that’s a definitive thumbs up as well.
I also loved the DaVino confections, a sweet that is made from red or white wines, kind of like a sophisticated gummy. Cloud 9 has put together a flour mix that is meant to be used cup for cup in your favourite recipes. I tried the recipe for the hello sunshine muffins and they turned out great.
The owners are going for a taste that anyone can love, whether you need to follow a gluten free diet or not. They have hit the mark. They plan on expanding to multiple locations, and I sure hope they do! Check them out!

I work for a film company that was shooting near the bakery and one of my coworkers, knowing I am not able to eat gluten, grabbed me a few items. I am so glad they did!
Now please understand — one of the worst disadvantages of being gluten free is missing out on all the amazing deserts and baked goods that have wheat flour in them. However I now feel that I do not have to miss out on anything at all! The baked goods from Cloud 9 are amazing! Rich, delicious, chewy… seriously, it’s hard to believe this stuff doesn’t have gluten in it, but I can vouch that it doesn’t because not only was it delicious but my body feels great.
I’m going to get baked goods from Cloud 9 again… I’m already looking forward to it.
