There is a post on the Starbucks blog about the cake that was posted yesterday:http://blogs.starbucks.com/blogs/customer/archive/2009/04/29/gluten-free-valencia-cake.aspxclaude.

Cupertino- Homestead and Wolfe location has it. I walked there

to justify the extra calories! It was very tasty, and it was nice to be able

to get a treat with my coffee!

We were given one last week as a free sample,

and my husband and I thought it was very good. My two sons (4 year old is our

celiac) were not overly impressed and actually didn't eat more than a bite

each. I thought it was very moist, but it does see like more of a grown up type

of cake. We tried to go yesterday morning to support the first day of sales,

and they were already sold out at the Brentwood Starbucks. I didn't try any

other stores because I had a 4 year old and an almost 2 year old with me and

didn't have the energy to trek all over town looking for them. I'll definetly

buy it again - I thought it was delicious and a great price. Hope you can find

it soon. I'll be curious to hear what you think about it!

Found it at the Starbucks in Blackhawk Plaza, and here's what they

look like in the wrapper: http://twitpic.com/4omlv

Also checked at the Starbucks across the street at the corner of

Camino Tassajara and Crow Canyon road and they were not expecting to

get any until later that week.

So there is an advantage to having one of those on every corner after all!

It was fabulous. Really good.

Cheers,

Joe

I bought one today at Starbucks in SF at the edge of the financial

district (Pacific & Battery, across from the Old Ship Saloon). I

haven't opened it yet, though.
