Mr. Ritt's Gluten Free Bakery has been in business as a strictly gluten free bakery since March 1st of 1999. Originally in Philadelphia, PA they are now located at 453 N. 2nd Street, MIllville, NJ 08332, with ordering for in store and shipping via the website or phone. The concept of making gluten free items was incepted by a local author Jax Peters Lowell coming into the store and asking if they made or had considered making anything gluten free, and expanded from there.

The business went completely gluten free after a young girl came into to pick her first birthday cake after 5 years of eating only ice cream at her own parties. All wheat products were removed from the business that day, and it has been completely gluten free ever since, with the recipes being conversions of the tried and true recipes that Mr. Ritt had been using since the 1970's selling baked goods wholesale to high end restaurants. The bakery continued to sell desserts to the same restaurants, even after they had gone completely gluten free . The new facility in Millville, NJ opened up in 2007, and has never been a wheat bakery.

Many of the items produced are not only gluten free but dairy free. They have had many parents of autistic children as clients from the time they went gluten free, and also can cater to gluten and dairy free. All items that are dairy free are indicated on the packaging with a cow with a red circle and slash, making the selection easier for the clientele.
