I use cocoa powder, a milk sub, and a sweetener to make my hot chocolate as well. I don't know about UK brands (though I believe cadbury's is a "will clearly mark on the label" company), but it's usually safe. try calling the company today to double check.

Not sure............I didn't realize you were from the UK. You might check around, never know you might find it. :)

Don't think that Cadbury's is okay.

What about Green and Blacks Organic Open Original Shared Link

Can you get Nestle's? I use a milk substitute (Vance's), sugar and Nestle's Pure Cocoa Powder.

What about Fry's? That's gluten-free. Not sure if it's available in the UK, though.

Is Almond Breeze available in the UK? If so, it's delicious heated up with a few drops of peppermint extract in it.

Good idea with the peppermint. I should try that sometime in my chocolate Silk. I don't know if they have that in the UK either--but Silk's chocolate soy milk is delicious--says cf/gluten-free right on container too.

It turns out that some cans of Fry's Cocoa may have traces of wheat. There is (or has been) more than one facility that produces this, and at least one of them may have issues of cross-contamination. (I just posted a new topic about this entitled 'Fry's Cocoa' - Jan 9, 2009).

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
