Existing establishment; gluten-free level and risks confirmed at the source.
Sources — FindMeGlutenFree: "Dedicated Gluten-Free Bakery in Florence," with consistent reviews from coeliac customers ("everything there was gluten free and vegan," "must visit for celiacs"). The website cortesecafe.com describes the whole menu as "Raw, Vegan, Gluten Free, Bio/Organic." Minor caveat: one article (cibotoday.it, not directly accessible, 403 error) mentioned a "caffè d'orzo" on the menu — traditional barley coffee ("orzo") contains gluten unless a certified gluten-free version is used. This detail is not corroborated by any other source (all others describe a fully gluten-free establishment); worth checking on-site if still listed, but not enough to downgrade the listing.
