Tucked along the sunny stretch of NJ-35 in Lavallette, Papa Ganache Normandy Beach brings the cozy charm of a European patisserie to the Jersey Shore. Every morning our ovens fill the air with the scent of buttery croissants, rich chocolate cakes, and warm cinnamon rolls—all crafted without a trace of gluten. We source the finest almond flours, single-origin chocolates, and local seasonal produce so every bite bursts with real flavor, not compromise. Whether you’re fueling up for a beach day, celebrating a birthday, or simply craving something sweet without the gluten, our bright, welcoming shop is your new Shore favorite. From sunrise espresso to sunset celebration cakes, we bake joy into every treat.
Indulge in our rotating menu of show-stopping cakes, flaky pastries, and grab-and-go breakfast bites—all 100% gluten-free. Signature favorites include our fudgy sea-salt brownies, lemon-blueberry scones, and pillowy cinnamon rolls. Need a centerpiece for your beach house gathering? Our custom celebration cakes come in sizes for 10 to 100 guests and can be decorated with ocean-inspired themes or your favorite shore colors. We also offer vegan, nut-free, and refined-sugar-free options clearly labeled so everyone can enjoy. Stop by before your morning paddle or after an evening bonfire; everything is baked fresh daily and ready to savor beachside.
