Frequently Asked Questions

What does “tatte” mean?

Tatte — which rhymes with “latte” — is a Hebrew nickname for “grandmother.” Growing up in the kibbutz in Israel, with a family that loved baking, our founder Tzurit Or wanted to build the same community and sense of belonging that she always found through baking alongside her mother. While thinking of a logo for the very first farmer’s market stand where Tzurit sold her now infamous cookie boxes, her then-18-month-old daughter happened to point to a picture of her grandmother and said, “Tatte, Tatte!” From there, Tatte was born and the rest is delicious history.

We indicate allergens in every dish on our menus, which you can view here. Depending on the severity of your allergies, we’d suggest being cautious when ordering any of our baked goods, as we do use all major allergens in our kitchens.

If you have any specific allergy-related questions, please reach out to us at [email protected].

Do you offer any gluten-friendly options?

Yes, we offer many gluten-friendly options on our menu. We use the term “gluten-friendly” instead of “gluten-free”, as we use gluten in our bakeries & kitchens and cannot guarantee that there is no cross-contamination. Our staff will be happy to guide you through our gluten-friendly menu options. If you have any specific gluten-related questions, please reach out to us at [email protected].
