Looking for Dairy Free milk chocolate recipes


Positron

Recommended Posts

Positron Newbie

Hi all, I have celiac which caused lactose intolerance as well.  I can drink lactose free milk with no problems and am looking for lactose free milk chocolate recipes.  I am getting frustrated because all that I am finding are dairy free chocolate recipes.  I feel that with practice I should be able to create a lactose free milk chocolate that incorporates real milk.  So why am I the first person to think of this?  Again there are millions of dairy free chocolate recipes that are all just lacking because milk is a very important part of milk chocolate.   Thanks is you know where I can look, please do not say the Lactaid site because their recipe calls for milk chocolate, which violates common sense.

I like enjoy life chunks. Expensive but even my hubby loved them. I melt them and put in coconut milk or almond milk for hot chocolate.

Tried those, I am looking to make real Swedish chocolate.  The life chunks have no milk, so they are not milk chocolate.  Thanks though...........

I am also lactose intolerant.  Here is a an article you might enjoy regarding chocolate and lactose.

That said, can you start from scratch with raw cocoa powder?  Unsweetened and no additives, it should have not gluten either.

      Damage with silent celiac exists. I am a silent celiac.  I was tested because I have the gene predisposing to celiac disease and migraines.  All of my antibodies were high (TTG IgA, TTG IgG, DGP IgA, DGP IGG, EMA). I had a biopsy which showed damage. After going gluten free I felt better overall and have more energy. Unfortunately it didn’t help the migraines. Sorry to be blunt and write this, but it sounds like you’re really in denial about the possibility of having celiac disease. Understandable, and not uncommon on this forum.

      Welcome to the forum, @terrymouse! Your GI doc is correct. Going gluten free now will allow healing to occur in the villous lining of the small bowel such that the endoscopy/biopsy may not show the damage to the villous architecture that is characteristic of celiac disease. Since your celiac blood antibody tests results are on the low side and don't "scream" of celiac disease I think it is important to go forward with the endoscopy/biopsy while still consuming gluten to ensure it will not be a wasted effort. The last thing you want is to have two different test modalities that unnecessarily contradict one another. So, unless the continued consumption of gluten poses an immediate and...

      I had an endoscopy where there was no visible damage but biopsies showed damage. I even asked beforehand if the endoscope had good enough magnification to see the villi!  I hope you get a clear answer from the biopsies.

      I have an endoscopy booked for mid-September to test for Celiac. My gp seems convinced it is celiac and I should eliminate gluten right away, but the gastroenterologist I was referred to says if I'm totally gluten-free then they won't be able to detect celiac from the endoscopy, and I should load up on gluten 2 weeks before the test. So I guess I shouldn't eliminate gluten then? Or stop and start again closer to the appointment date. But I'm also on the wait list in case they can get me in sooner, because I'm losing weight. I don't want to have to go back and do it over again if I can help it. They also were unsure if there isn't something else wrong with my stomach, so that's a possibility. I...

      Being low in B12, Folate B9, ferritin, zinc and copper sounds consistent with anemia which can often occur with Celiac.  What did your doctor recommend? What about your Vitamin D?  It helps regulate the immune system.
