Review: Love their gluten free baked goods! Just waiting for some more fluffernutter bars! The Oatmeal Cream Pies are the best! My favorites are the items that really would never need gluten, Did I mention Fluffernutter bars?? They are amazing! They have a super fun retro antique shop upstairs! This place is cute as can be!

Review: I've eaten an unhealthy amount of cheap grocery store-purchased oatmeal creme pies over the years, and now I will never be able to enjoy one again. Thistle's Summit has ruined them for me... in a good way! The Thistle's Summit version is perfect, and I've been craving another one every day. I also tried a pumpkin whoopie pie, which was quite flavorful. The shop is charming and friendly, as well. I'm not vegan and have been pretty underwhelmed when trying vegan baked goods from other places in the past, but these were wonderful. I will definitely return!

Review: I'm not vegan, nor am I gluten free, but I've continuously visited Thistle's Summit weekly for the last couple of months. Their Oatmeal Cream Pies have made me a true fan of Thistle's Summit and although I've kept a good stock in my freezer, I find myself always willing to try other items at the shop. The peanut butter and jelly tarts are KILLER and I have also been loving the pumpkin bars. The shop is so cute and welcoming and weekly quick chats with Marti and Ash are so lovely. You also have to go upstairs and visit their apothecary for their gorgeous selection of candles. I will say vegan and gluten free baked goods are completely different from what we all normally think of when we want baked goods but they're totally worth a try! I have brought my family and friends visiting Des Moines to Thistle's Summit and they all have been begging me to send them Oatmeal Cream Pies!
