On the cover

Options have improved for those who love bread and baked treats but don’t want the gluten that usually comes as part of these foods. In this week’s cover story, John Fladd talks to the bakers helping apple pie-lovers and bread addicts still enjoy their favorites, but gluten-free. Above photo: Gluten-free loaves at Dishon Bakery.

Also on the cover, Chocolate baklava is just one of many treats you can find at this year’s Greekfest at Assumption Greek Orthodox Church in Manchester this weekend (see page 17). Shop plein air at this weekend’s Greeley Park Art Show (page 13). Search for monsters in downtown Manchester on Saturday during the annual Monster Hunt (page 14).
