We think cupcake-induced belly aches should be caused only by the sheer volume of too much sugary goodness, not because of an allergy. In moderation of course. If your birthday boy, birthday girl or dessert deserving kid has a gluten allergy, we’ve got your new go-to list of cupcake shops. In honor of Celiac Awareness Month, go ahead and treat yourself, err, your kid, at one of Red Tricycle’s favorite gluten-free bakeries.

BabyCakes NYC

If you, your kid or any birthday party attendee has an allergy, this cupcake shop is the place to go. Their goodies are gluten-, dairy-, egg-, soy- and even refined sugar-free. We recommend trying their brownie cupcake with mint or vanilla frosting. But the most popular flavor here is the red velvet cupcake with creamy vanilla frosting. It's a small shop, but there are a couple of nooks and even an outside table to sit at for a quick nosh.

Celebrate: Get your birthday party orders in weekdays between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm 48 hours in advance.
