I just tried the gluten free pantry chocolate truffle brownie mix and it was really good. It is gluten-free and Dairy free, you just add eggs, tasted just like real brownies. Can I expect the same from all GLuten Free pantry items?

This is my families favorite. I just bought their pie crust mix, but have not tried it yet. But these brownies are awesome. Our friends' also love them. I take them when I go to a potluck.

Those brownies are so good. I love making them for dessert when we have people over the house cause I can eat them too!!! They love it.

I thought these were absolutely fantastic. BUT there was an issue with them that we had to stop getting them, and it was the potential for cross contamination with nuts!!!

--------------EMAIL RECIEVED FROM COMPANY--------

Thank you for contacting us.

I am sorry that I cannot recommend our products as there is a slight chance of cross contamination. We do use tree nut products on the same line and I cannot guarentee that our raw ingredients are 100% free of peanuts and tre nuts.

SO, I'll put a plug in for the "Ooey Gooey Chocolatey Chewy" brownies from The Cravings Place We like them more cake-like so we use soymilk instead of water!

I just made these last week and was going to post about how yummy they are. THey taste just like the real thing. They do get dry faster then a normal browny, but I made them last Thursday and I am still eating the crumbs.

I've tried a bunch of the gluten free pantry stuff - the brownies are amazing, the pie crust is great but a little crumbly, but who cares? The ginger spice cake is awesome, I added shredded carrots, and walnuts and frosted it with cream cheese frosting. I also made chocolate chip muffins with the muffin mix and they were awesome too! Its a great line of products!!!

I am glad that everyone seems to like their products! I am excited now about trying them all! Does anyone have any issues with cc with these products? (gluten and casein when it says Gluten-free Casein-free)

I don't know. I tried their bread baking mix and it just didn't work. Brownie Mixes are pretty simple though, a bunch of cocoa and sugar, xanthan gum, leavening and some alternative flour, so i dont think brownies should be the meter for quality. Bobs red mill bronwies are really amazing, too. I think pamela's has one too. anyway.

I love these brownies, not only b/c they are AMAZING but b/c they are what convinced my family that gluten free stuff is edible. Seriously, before i found these, my family absolutely refused to eat anything I ate (by family i mean my parents, and i dont live with them, so its not that big of an issue). My mother would make Spaghetti bolognese and make two different kinds of pasta, etc. We made these brownies at xmas dinner, and everyone devoured them- no one touched the expensive, gourmet decadent chocolate hazelnut torte b/c the gluten-free brownies were so damn good! Since that experience, my family has been so much more willing to try gluten-free products.

No issue of cc for me, but i havent had them since that time so i may not be the best judge :)

I love their bread mix, but haven't tried doing it by hand. I do it in a bread machine and I make a few changes. I warm my eggs for 20 seconds in the microwave once I have already beat them with a fork for a few seconds. Then I also add the yeast pack to the warm water before putting all the liquid ingredients in the bread maker and then pour the dry mix on top. I also scrape the sides with a spatula for a few seconds at the beginning of the cycle. This works great!

Although, sadly, I'm off grains now, I loved their brownie mix, pie crust mix, gingerbread spice cake mix, cornbread mix, cake and cookie mix--really never was dissapointed in anything by them. I tend to be very sensitive, and had no CC issues with their stuff at all.

Here's an idea for you.....when you make these brownies, pour a serious amount of Junior Mints over the brownies right after they come out of the oven and just leave it. They will adhere to your brownies and create the "frosting". I took these to an event a church recently and people were coming up to me to ask for my "recipe". Do not spread the Junior Mints around, just leave them. I call this "Ana's Junior Mint Brownies" after my granddaugher Ana, who has celiac disease, but I love them as much as anyone could.

Hey, I can't have casein either, so I understand where you are coming from, but I've found that they don't actually have casin in them. It specificially says milk and eggs may be present, but I feel safe eating them as they do not actually have milk in the ingrediants. Good luck! (:

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.
