Vegan bakery that makes edibles just opened at the Jersey Shore
Being vegan can be limiting when it comes to enjoying a sweet treat.
I had vegan suitemates my first year of college and it felt like if it wasn’t a stack of Oreo cookies, they weren’t getting dessert.
So I can only imagine how thrilled they would be to see this vegan bakery open not one, but now a second location in the Garden State.
Papa Ganache is now operating in Lavallette, NJ
What started as a small bakery tucked away in Matawan is now becoming a chain with its new spot at the Jersey shore that just opened on May 22
The bakers at Papa Ganache have been at it for 16 years, with no sign of slowing down.
The bakery is known for producing vegan and gluten-free treats made in small batches in their own kitchen. They offer pies, donuts, cake pops, cupcakes, cheesecake, “brookies,” and much more.
Everything is plant-based, cholesterol-free, contains no trans fats, dairy, eggs, preservatives, or animal products.
Speaking of “plants,” Papa Ganache has teamed up with those in the kitchen at Garden State Exotix and is getting ready to launch an exciting line of Cannabis-Infused edibles.
Papa Ganache is 100% Vegan 100% of the time
The flagship bakery is at 106 Main St. in Matawan, NJ. They’re open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
As for the newest Papa Ganache, that’s located at 3620 Highway 35 N. in Lavallette, NJ. They’ll be serving those at the Jersey shore every day from 8:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.
Stop in and be ready to get baked.
