I ordered a custom chocolate cake for a birthday party, and Amanda was really helpful in talking me through the options and accommodating the dietary restrictions.

Best of class in Pastry and Setup plus great atmosphere. If I living in Santa Cruz I would be here all the time. You can tell the quality and care that the pastry chef puts into the product. The prices beat your less desirable products at the standard coffee shops. Definitely check this place out!!
We have celiac and we LOVE this place. But even if gluten isn’t an issue for you this is a fabulous bakery! They have delicious sweet treats and tasty lunch foods. But don’t forget to grab a loaf of bread. We are huge fans of the brown bread and the herb loaf.

Switch Bakery is a bakery in downtown Santa Cruz, off Cedar Street. The bakery has a very home-y vibe, a great atmosphere, and indoor and outdoor seating. It is a fabulous bakery for everyone, including those with celiac and gluten-free needs. The gluten-free baked goods are phenomenal, and the focaccia lives up to the hype. It is the first place to find gf focaccia, and the everything loaf comes highly recommended. The focaccia pizza slices with pesto and cheese melted on top of a slice of focaccia are heavenly. The brown bread and the herb loaf are also favorites. The sweet treats and tasty lunch foods are delicious. A custom chocolate cake with toasted marshmallow frosting turned out beautifully and was a huge hit at a birthday party; it was both gluten-free and dairy-free and the price was very reasonable. The pastry chef puts quality and care into the product, and the prices beat less desirable products at standard coffee shops. Staff are super friendly, patient, and helpful.
