Tupelo — Wheat Free Bakery & Cafe

Vered Baer, originally from Kibbutz Gesher HaZiv, and Murad Bishara, originally from Tarshiha, met at the chef restaurant Adelina on Kibbutz Cabri and fell in love.

Vered and Murad’s dream was to set up a bakery and cafe, where even celiac patients, like Vered’s sister, vegans, or people who avoid gluten, could enjoy and indulge with an abundance of fresh and delicious pastries like cakes, sandwiches, and pizzas.

Tupelo is a wheat-free bakery and cafe in the heart of the ancient and picturesque village of Tarshiha, which combines a bakery with a variety of wheat-free products and pastries.

The bakery and cafe were founded by Verad and Murad, a couple in business and in life, whose dream was to create a wheat-free place that everyone could enjoy. Verad is originally a kibbutznik from Gesher HaZiv and she also lived in the United States for many years, and Murad is originally from Tarshiha. 

You can choose from a collection of treats and pastries such as vegan sourdough bread, lemon and yuzu cakes, lemon squares with raspberries, blueberry muffins, gluten-free vegan pizzas made from Sourdough combined with portabello mushrooms, broccoli and pesto, spinach and blue-cheese quiches, and even chocolate chip cake you won’t be able to stop eating, and everything tastes like the real thing!

You can purchase all this goodness for home, for your vacation in a nearby B&B, or sitting in the sweet courtyard full of plants and surrounded by love.
