Ice cream sauce

Hi,

I'm wondering if your chocolate and caramel ice cream sauces are Gluten Free?

Thank you!

Mine are because I only buy ones that are gluten-free.  You should really do the same IMHO if you are trying to eat gluten-free.  I can tell you that plain Hershey's chocolate syrup is gluten-free in the USA.

In a major effort not to come off as a total Richard-head I am posting in a link to Hershey's website.  They have a nice disclaimer on gluten and a list of their products that are gluten-free.

https://www.thehersheycompany.com/en_us/whats-inside/gluten-free.html

The best way to determine if our products contain a gluten ingredient is to read our product label. This label includes an accurate, current listing of the ingredients in our products. Because, on occasion, the list of ingredients can change, we strongly encourage you to check the ingredient label on the package each time before you make a purchase.

Actually I think their Special Dark Choc Syrup and Simply 5 Choc Syrup are gluten-free too.  I found some sugar free pancake syrup recently and am planning to try making it into chocolate syrup by adding cocoa powder to it.  According to my science I should actually lose weight while eating ice cream that way. :)

I haven't tried any of their caramel sauces myself.  For any other product the same also holds true, read the ingredients.  That usually works although their have been some cases of mislabeling things gluten-free show up.  The Gluten-free Watchdog posts notices about those products on Facebook.  I think Hershey's is pretty good about labeling.  I am not sure about other companies.

Welcome to the forum ! :)

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
