Café de la Vida: Viennese Gluten-free Community Café

Host: Babsi’s Viennese Treats

"Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, 'You owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that. It lights up the whole sky." Hafez

We welcome you to a community café to unwind, relax, play, and delight in yummies and fellowship! Enjoy a cozy afternoon/evening café atmosphere similar to an Austrian coffeehouse, with a variety of organic gluten-free Austrian treats and vegan hot chocolate. Soup and savories provided.

Your host (Babsi’s Viennese Treats) is a local cottage food baker near 2727 California. We love spoiling community with our organic, gluten-free low- and no-sugar treats derived from traditional Austrian recipes (http://www.babsisviennesetreats.com; Instagram: babsistreats).

Babsi (Barbara Widhalm, Ph.D.) is also a local college educator who loves to host listening circles and creative co-explorations.
