Power of the Almond
1920 25th Ave, Gulfport, MS
Crema's Take
“Power of the Almond is a charming keto-focused bakery that's earned serious devotion from visitors willing to drive 40+ minutes for their lemon bars and creative pastries like mini bundt King Cakes and banana cream pie. The welcoming staff and leisurely cafe atmosphere make it ideal for lingering with friends or family while enjoying traditionally crafted drinks alongside their thoughtfully sweetened baked goods. It's exactly the kind of specialty spot that fills a genuine gap in the community—the kind of place people discover on TikTok and then make a pilgrimage to in person.”

We have visited POTA twice now since learning of the existence of this bakery. It's worth the the 40+ minute drive. The first time we went we got one of the Lemon Bars and a mini bundt King Cake. They were both decadent! But our absolute favorite was the King Cake!! We went back again to get only 2 King Cakes but they didn't have any. We chose the Chocolate Cream Cheese pie like bar. It was so delicious I forgot to take a picture of it before devouring it. We also go a package of the Lemon Blueberry Biscuits. These are actually more like muffin tops. We were so surprised at how moist and tender these actually are. Just like eating the top half of a muffin. There's a slightly salty taste that's perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the biscuits. We can't get enough of them! We definitely recommend trying everything you can from POTA!! We really feel you won't be disappointed!!
This is such a great place! We bought one of just about everything they sell and everything was delicious! Will be back!
I've been passing the storefront before it opened for weeks on my way home and didn't realize it was the same bakery I've been seeing on Tik Tok lol. Stopped in today and everyone is very nice. We got the lemon bar, buckeye brownie, and the strawberry fluff. DELICIOUS! So good I forgot to take a pic of my lemon bar before eating it all. 🤦🏻♀️ Definitely a great addition to the coast, especially if you have dietary restrictions. I'll definitely be stopping in again bc the biscuits in the fridge were calling my name.
They are open and I was not disappointed! This place is exactly what Gulfport needed! The staff was super friendly, the choices were great, and the food was delicious!!! So glad to have a solid option for gluten free treats right here downtown 🥰
Banana cream pie is an absolute yes!!! Keto bakery, sweetened with monk fruit sweetener.. very cute bakery.
