For the life of me I can't find this place. I have a big office budget with lots of GF employees to get pastry for. New to the area and for the love of God signage in this area is terrible. Google keeps bringing me to True Value Hardware store.@PurelySweet can you please put landmarks in your description (ie, in the XYZ Shopping Center right next to BIG Store Name on the North/South side of DX? ) ? (!)Make fun of this review all you want, but dollars to donuts I'm not the only one.

Ordered vegan cupcakes for a baby shower and they were big hit! Very moist and each flavor was delicious! The icing was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive.Dietary restrictions: A quarter of the guests were vegans and we wanted to make sure the bakery we chose was only vegan or at least vegetarian. All the ingredients were kosher and good quality.

I have been diagnosed as gestationally diabetic for both of my pregnancies. Being forced to eat low carb/keto is so hard. I found this bakery recently. I have become obsessed with their keto brownies and my husband really liked the keto cookies. What really got me about this place is that when I called to ask about what keto options were in the shop they went out of their way to see what they had available for today and let me know in a timely manor. That kind of service makes me want to go back!

I admit that I’m not a big gluten-free guy, but the pastries here were very dry. The crust was not flaky on the open pie, nor did anything taste good. The bakery area consist of a 4 x 4 cooler.

Stopped in at the Coffee Hub to get a coffee and saw the vegan, gluten-free pastries they were selling from this bakery. They are so yummy. My husband and I don't do dairy so it's fun to try new things when we find them. My husband loved the s'mores donut and I absolutely loved the cinnamon roll. I'll be back!!

I personally am not vegan, gluten free, or paleo, but I've always been impressed with Purely Sweet's baked goods as even my "meat and potatoes" dad can't tell the difference. We tried the birthday cake and caramel donuts as part of the "sweet treats festival" and loved them!

I've only enjoyed Purely Sweet baked goods while at Coffee Hub in Beavercreek. My experience has been hit or miss. I've enjoyed gluten free vegan baked goods at a handful of other bakeries, and these are on the dry side in comparison. Their oatmeal cookie sandwich does have great flavor (although I wish it didn't have chocolate chips), and it's also very crumbly. I know it's possible to make an incredibly moist gluten free vegan oatmeal cookie sandwich, but that isn't the style you'll find here. I didn't like sticky bun at all. It was grainy and didn't have much flavor. We ordered a gluten free vegan cake from them once, and while the frosting was quite good the cake was much too dense and crumbly for our liking. It's a good place to pop in and grab a pack of gluten free cookies if we need them for an event.

We are so lucky to have this amazing allergen friendly and gluten free bakery in town! Placed a large order of custom cookies with royal icing (nut free, gluten free & dairy free - wow!) for a college sports team. The staff at PSB was so wonderful & professional to work with. Each cookie was hand decorated and individually wrapped...and ready to travel to Syracuse! The cookies were beautiful and unbelievably delicious! The gluten-free players grabbed the tray of few left overs to take home with them:) Thank you PSB and more power to you!!

I live a hour away and I was rly excited to try this place because I’ve only been gluten free for a little over a year. I got a donut, a lemon bar and a cinnamon roll and boy was it not good. Obviously this is my personal preference but it tasted like cement or dust. :/

Adam assured that there was an absolutely gorgeous birthday cake that he and his staff made for my niece, Sara. Everybody was overwhelmed by how gorgeous it was. It was also most tasty. I want to thank all the people at Purely Sweet for their effort, talent and obvious love put into her cake.

My 3 year old has a dairy and peanut allergy so this was the first bakery cake he’s ever had. It absolutely exceeded expectations in appearance and taste! Both Adam and Dawn were so accommodating to all of my allergen and design requests and were very easy to communicate with, would 100% recommend!
Caitlin Witters
Made a special order for my kids bday. Her friend has a egg, wheat and peanut allergy and you were able to accommodate. Kids loved the cupcakes, gobbled them all up per teacher. Mom was in tears as her kid had never been included. Mama heart is full.

I'm from Cincinnati and am always looking for GF/DF bakeries around the area that I can try (since I have a love for sweets but have the GF/DF limitation). So when I found Purely Sweet Bakery on Instagram, I was super excited and wanted to try them the next time I was in the Dayton area. Since I don't live close by, I ended up buying everything that was GF/DF. I wasn't sure how long they had been sitting out, but I found majority of the items to be dry. Good flavor, but dry. I've had cookies and bars other places near me that are GF/DF and not dry...the only difference I can think of is that I was able to get those items fresh, whereas with these being on the shelf, maybe was the difference. Or maybe the cookies were meant to be a crunchy cookie. Chocolate Chip Cookies - good flavor, crumblyChocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies - good flavor, crumbly Oatmeal Cream Pie - dry and too sweet for meBuckeye Donut - delightful flavor, very dense and a lot of icing, but I know that kept it on the moist side.Cinnamon Roll - great flavor, but still dry on the inside even after heating it up per instruction. Sticky Bun - great flavor, but dry on the inside as well after heating up. 6 Layer Bar - too too sweet for meSalted Carmel Cookie Bar - too sweet for meWhat I'll probably do next time is order some of the items ahead of time and pick them up day of. All in all, I'm always a huge fan of bakeries that have allergen friendly items and create baked goods for us allergen peeps to partake in. I give a shout out of appreciation to you. Thank you!
