At the Wheat-Free Gourmet, we celebrate “life after wheat.” Our founder and director, Mary Capone, came to this idea honestly. Her gluten intolerance combined with her love for gourmet cooking, baked the idea that a restrictive diet could still be fun and full of scrumptious delights.

Over the years, she formulated many outstanding gluten-free recipes. Her Around the World menus includes Italian, French, Pan Asian, South of the Border and Savory American cuisines. Mary’s baking recipes are tried and true and include flaky pie crusts, tender and moist cakes, pizza crust, textured breads, and award-winning desserts.

Mary comes from a long line of great Italian chefs and restaurateurs. She has owned and operated several food enterprises including Marie’s Crepes, a Parisian- style crepe kiosk, and The Wheat-Free Gourmet, featuring gourmet 100% gluten-free desserts. Her love for the kitchen and passion for scrumptious recipes makes her a well-versed instructor.
