gluten-free Bread

A common complaint I notice from time to time is the lack of a bread you can buy which comes close to the same flavor/texture as traditional bread. Recently my wife brought home some bread by "Glutino". It is made in Quebec, Canada. The reason I don't think we bought it before was because of the name on the package. It said Corn Bread. The only thing in it that relates to corn is corn starch. It looks like white sandwich bread and has the texture and flavor of sourdough when toasted. It is light in weight. I think the name is what throws some people off. I called them and mentioned how much it tastes like regular bread. Their response is that they have been working on the product for a long time. They also make a flax seed bread which is also good. I have been looking at maybe buying a case (12 loaves) and freezing. I have tried the main gluten-free breads available and will not mention names because I appreciate any company who tries to make a gluten-free product. The light weight and texture of this product make it far superior in my opinion. Has anyone else tried this product and what was your response. The phone number for Glutino is 1-800-363-3438. Any questions about the ingredients could be answered. The label does mention that traces of soy may be in the bread.

I haven't had their bread yet. I can't find it locally(out here in the sticks), and I'm afraid to order a case from the co-op that I order from. I have had their bagels(plain and cinnamon raisin), and they are first rate. The are a bit denser than a "normal" bagel, but the texture is pretty close to those toxic bagels I used to enjoy so much. They are normal sized too, not like the mini-bagels that Enjoy Life turns out. I would be interested in getting ahold of a loaf to try.

Yes, Glutino is a great product. Everything Ive tried was excellent. They even make gluten-free ice cream cones. :P

Im in the middle of healing so Im passing on the bread only because I think I react to the yeast. Ill have to wait a while to try that. Wholefoods market and mostly all health food stores carry Glutino products.

Glutino and Gluten Free Pantry merged, so now I've been seeing more Glutino products locally. I think that is helping to get Glutino out with the distribution GFP has. I haven't bought anything yet, but it looks like I should!

The ice cream cones were wonderful :)

Thanks for the heads up on the "corn" bread AND the ice cream cones. I've only tried a couple of Glutino's products, just the chocolate breakfast bars which tasted like prunes to me, and the bread sticks, which were just okay. I just hadn't thought to try their bread yet. And I never would have thought to try their cornbread while looking for a sandwich or toast type bread.

Thanks again!

Gotta go place an order now!

I've not tried the bread yet, but I definitely will! I love everything I've ever had from both Glutino and GFP, so I'm glad they've merged. I'll have to find more ways to get ahold of the stuff!

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

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

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also...

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to...

I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?
