Yummy!

Hi all, after confirming with Nestle (Canada) that the Aero Mousse Chocolate Cone IS indeed gluten-free, I had one last night!!!

WOW!!! What a load of chocolate! I even risked my lactose intolerance, and actually did NOT have a reaction!

The ice cream is light and VERY creamy, and the chocolate cone is RICH!!! I had to let my hubby Ron finish the last bite! I would have been okay if I'd thought to make myself a cup of coffee to go with it!

According to Nestle, the Turtle Bar and Rolo Bar are also gluten-free. I have the link to their New Products page here: Open Original Shared Link it doesn't list gluten-free on the products, but a quick phone call was all it took to confirm.

Enjoy everyone!

Hi Tam, I couldn't find the cone, or the turtles bar today in town, but did find the Rolo bar ... yummm ... Thanks, will keep looking for the others, they should show up in the area somewhere

stupid ever-presence of dairy... grumble, grumble, moan, whine.

:-D

nah... that's great they're coming out with new options that are gluten-free!

I know Tiffany , however if your dairy problem is Lactose, you may not find these too bad!

I had some gluten-free Shortbread cookies last week, made with butter, two cookies had me with gassy gurgle guts!

I fully expected the same when I CHOSE to eat the Aero Cone, but to my VERY pleasant surprise, I did not have a single grumble!!!

Maybe it was just lucky, but I'm willing to try them again, this time with a cup of fresh brewed black coffee!

unfortunately, it's the casein. :-( I miss dairy more than wheat. :-/

Hi Tiffany,

Ditto here, I can't tolerate casein either. I sure do miss ice cream! Oh well. I try to find other foods that I consider treats. I love raspberries and make them into a smoothie with soy milk and rice protein powder. I add ice to make it thick. We have a gluten free bakery in San Francisco that makes good chocolate brownies and other goodies. If I'm desperate I go to the Whole Foods near me in San Jose and get some.

Sincerely,

June

I wonder if gluten-free in Canada is the same as US? I've heard it's not...does that mean I should call Nestle to see if the USA products are safe?

Soy Delicious does make a very good chocolate non-dairy frozen soy dessert (gotta love the descriptor!) that is Gluten-free Casein-free that Trader Joe's carries. (I don't have it often since I'm struggling to lose the 6-8lbs I put back on this year (that I didn't need).)

Yup, you need to check in both countries, unfortunately, I wish the same companies would get together and just make it all Gluten Free.
