"makes the best gf/cf rice bread I have yet tasted. They make a wide variety of breads, buns, bagels, cookies, muffins, etc. We have tried the gf/cf white bread, dinner rolls, bagels and pizza dough. They are all excellent. They will ship frozen bread to you as well."

 

Make sure you specify dairy free as well as gf, because their primary customers are the celiac community.

 

Their store is at n Vineland, Ont. Vineland is about half way between St. Catharines and Hamilton, off the QEW.  The store is open from Wednesday to Saturday - 10 - 5, but I believe you can call in orders any day."
