When Bussanich realized she had to go gluten-free, she mourned the toasty morning muffins, moist birthday cakes, and fruity crumbles she thought she'd have to give up. She used trial and error to recreate her favorite treats-- sans gluten. Her Portland bakery, Crave Bake Shop, proved that gluten-free can taste just as good as the original.
