“With such a witty name, how could you resist the urge to try one of the cinnamon rolls at this bakery? Glutenus Maximus Bakehouse offers cinnamon rolls on Saturdays, sometimes including variations like salted caramel apple pie. Head to the brick-and-mortar shop in Vista, or stop by one of the nearby farmers markets on select days for these mouthwatering treats.”
-Sierra Winters
“Having since expanded into cookies, croissants, and other baked goods, Glutenus Maximus began with owner Casey Smith’s love of cooking homemade waffles; a hobby that started when he was a child. The passion eventually turned into a profession, with Smith working at various bakeries before launching a farmers' market stall specializing in savory sandwiches built on Liege waffles made from brioche dough with caramelized pockets of pearl sugar.”

“Am I above driving an hour just because a new bakery in Vista has a funny name? I am not. To be fair, the place is called Glutenus Maximus Bakehouse, which manages to be a pun about butts, gluten sensitivity, and Roman gladiators. Okay, maybe not the gladiators, but your mind can go all kinds of places in the car for an hour.
When I got there, I found a sunny little shop with a glass counter stuffed with pastries, many of which, it turn, were stuffed with goodness, such as vanilla custard or chocolate hazelnut spread.”

“They are doing French pastries with a twist, and it is a good twist let me tell you. I have got a lot of good fun things in front of me that you wouldn’t find in other places. They bake everything fresh daily!”
