Incredible gluten-free Breads & Bagels

I went to the Suffolk County Celiac Vendor Fair today and I found 2 amazing products. Both a gluten-free Bread (actually 2 different kinds) and gluten-free bagels that taste incredible. But one of the best parts is that they taste great without toasting or adding a ton of stuff to make them edible.

The bread I tried is made by the Gluten Free Bread Basket. I had both the Mock Rye and Country Sandwich Bread. Yummy!! I just had a roast beef sandwich on the country sandwich bread. I didn't toast it, didn't add any condiments - and it was a delicious normal sandwich!

The website is www.gfbreadbasket.com

The bagel I tried was from Joan's gluten-free Great Bakes. It was incredible! I didn't even have anything on the bagel. Just tried a piece of the plain bagel and OMG it tasted like a normal bagel!!! (And I'm from NY so I have a high standard of what a bagel should taste like). They had other varieties besides plain but that was the only sample I tried. Unfortunately they were all sold out but I will definately be ordering them.

If you want to try them the e-mail address is: gfgreatbakes@yahoo.com or the phone number is (516) 680-7923.

There were some other great products there but this is the first time I have found great breads that I can eat like a normal person and not have to toast to make slightly edible never mind actually enjoyable, so I wanted to share.

that sounds wonderful, I wonder how long (or if) before they make it to the general market... I would really like a bagel that really tastes like a bagel and sandwich bread that doesn't need to be toasted to be edible!

I know you can definately order the products to be shipped from both vendors. I think they are both to small scale to end up in like a Whole Foods in the near future. But I would definately reccomend ordering. Whatever the shipping cost may be it is definately worth it!

So jealous about the fair--sounds like fun! I never did make it to the Bread Basket on my trip. It sounded really good though!

      Allergy Testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Since gluten sensitivity or celiac disease could be a factor (alongside other potential allergens like dairy, eggs, or environmental triggers), getting proper testing is key. In Christchurch, you could start with a pediatrician or GP who can refer you to an allergist/immunologist or a pediatric gastroenterologist (if celiac is suspected). For allergy testing, some options include skin prick tests or IgE blood tests (for immediate allergies), while celiac testing requires gluten consumption beforehand. If you're hitting roadblocks, consider reaching out to Canterbury Allergy Clinic or checking with Christchurch Hospital’s pediatric services for guidance. In the meantime, keeping a food/symptom diary may help identify patterns. Hang in there—getting answers can take time, but you're on the right track!

      Allergy Testing

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @ARutherford! Have you considered that your child may have gluten intolerance/celiac disease? It's not an allergy, it's an autoimmune response to the ingestion of gluten. It cannot be diagnosed by allergy testing but there are some specific antibody blood tests that any physician can order to check for it. Ask for a "total IGA test" and a "TTG-IGA" test.

      Allergy Testing

      By ARutherford · Posted

      My child keeps getting rashes & stomach aches & l think it’s an allergy to gluten but l need to get a general allergy test done to confirm for sure what it can be. Getting an allergy test seems difficult, l keep hitting dead ends! I live in Christchurch & want to know if anyone can help with who to go to? Thanks

      Is "Shield" skincare products gluten-free?

      By trents · Posted

      Good idea, @LynnM! That would be helpful to other celiacs who find themselves on the more sensitive end of the spectrum. You might also want to send them information about how to initiate the process with GFCO. But just a word of caution here, don't be surprised if the company is reluctant to pursue this certification as it can tie their hands with regard to changes in formulation in the future. Manufacturers often make ingredient decisions not only based on desired product outcomes but on cost factors. It can also put them at a liability risk should some ingredient supplier introduce an ingredient that was cross-contaminated with gluten without knowledge and cause someone to have a reaction. Testing for gluten-free certification is not done as frequently as consumers imagine and products can and do get out of spec at times. And once you slap a gluten-free certified label on a product, you are instantly open to possible liable suites.

      Hi Everyone. I just heard back from my son's GI doc and nutritionist. SHIELD products ARE gluten free. I am going to ask the company to Pursue gluten-free certification.
