Erin Mckenna's Bakery NYC (LA) – Restaurant

Erin McKenna's Bakery, born as BabyCakes NYC before taking its founder's name, has baked on Larchmont Boulevard in Los Angeles since 2012, part of a two-city operation with a sister shop in Orlando. Every item on the counter is entirely vegan and gluten-free, sweetened with agave and vegan sugar rather than refined sugar, and the bakery keeps the operation kosher besides. Cupcakes, doughnuts, cookies, brownies, layer cakes and soft-serve fill the case, alongside nationwide shipping for anyone outside driving distance. Regulars treat it as proof that allergy-friendly baking doesn't mean sacrificing flavor or texture. Extended weekend hours suit dessert cravings.
