In 1994 I was diagnosed with celiac disease, which led me to create Celiac.com in 1995. I created this site for a single purpose: To help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed and living happy, healthy gluten-free lives. Celiac.com was the first site on the Internet dedicated solely to celiac disease, and since then it has become an invaluable resource to people worldwide who seek information about celiac disease and the gluten-free diet. In 1998 I created The Gluten-Free Mall, Your Special Diet Superstore! which was also another Internet first—it was the first gluten-free food site to offer a shopping cart-style interface, and the ability for people to order gluten-free products manufactured by many different companies at a single Web site.

Our mission is simple--to help people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance enjoy meals again.
We are the exclusive North American distributor of Toro™ brand Celiac-Safe™ baking mixes, which are manufactured at a state-of-the-art factory in Bergen, Norway. European celiacs have enjoyed these products safely for nearly 30 years, now you can too!
Our chefs combine buckwheat, potato flour and other ingredients to create secret recipes that we think outperform products currently available in the U.S. We certify that all of our products meet the standards of safety established by the Codex Alimentarius, which defines gluten free foods as those with less than 20 parts per million total gluten content.
Most of our products contain specially formulated wheat starch, which means it has been processed to remove all but a trace amount of gluten. In Europe, this type of wheat starch may be used in gluten-free products, as long as the total gluten content of the wheat starch itself is less than 200 parts per million.
If this wheat starch is an ingredient in a food product that contains other ingredients, the total gluten content of that food can not exceed 20 parts per million.
These trace gluten levels, and the use of specially formulated wheat starch are under consideration by the FDA for the definition of gluten-free in the United States.
