“We work around the clock,” said Chris Farraj, who owns Allergy Free Bakery in Shelby Township with his wife, Jessica. Both Farrajs still work full-time jobs while running Allergy Free Bakery, a gluten-free, kosher, and vegan bakery that is free from the top nine allergens — one of the few bakeries in the country to do so. The Farrajs started Allergy Free Bakery after seeing how two of their children with food allergies were unable to enjoy traditional sweet treats during birthday parties and holidays.

“Two of our three children have severe food allergies, and it was so hard for them to understand why they couldn’t have birthday cake or treats that other kids were having,” said Jessica. “So many times, I would take my son away from the celebration and over to the play structure or do something else when they were singing happy birthday and cutting the cake.

Allergy Free Bakery in Shelby Township makes from scratch cookies,
scones, bagels, ice cream, cakes, cupcakes, pies, doughnuts, bread, coffee
and more and everything they offer is completely free of what are known as
the “big nine.” That means the top most common food allergens: milk, eggs,
shellfish, fish, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy and sesame.
