Hi, I'm Kaya's mum. Here in New Zealand , on the Coeliac Society web site, we have access to the Food Database which includes amongst others the gluten free foods list. This is submitted by manufacturers to the dietitian responsible at Auckland Hospital and verified before it goes on the list. We are given a copy if we belong to the Coeliac society and it's updated annually.

Many of the same foods would be available to you ( in Aussie ) like confectionery. Cadbury has quite an extensive list Perhaps it would be worth checking out.

I have found the yummiest Chocolate on planet!

Tropical Source, is amazing. They are seem asociated with Eskal.

It is a bit expensive, but so good, and they're are diff types as well, I am currently munching on mint choc chip.

I got it from the Darrel Lea shop but have also seen it in a health food shop.

It says that it is made in a dedicated facility and the one that I have is dairy free also ( I would assume this is the same for all but please check.)

LolI swear it so yummy , you will want to hide from the gluten eaters in your house coz they'll want to nic it!

Thanks for this chocky sweets thread. I have got ill with what feels like tonsillitis ( tonsils removed but feels like that) and in my feverish state could only remember you saying that Flake & Twirl were OK. I was collapsing with hunger and can't swallow - so that bit of choc and Sweets icecream and fresh orange juice has saved me.I always get sick on weekends

Hello fellow Aussies,

I'm pleased to let you know about a couple of lollies we Aussie Coeliacs can indulge in - Minties and Fruit Tingles!

Fruit Tingles were always my favourite lollies, before I was diagnosed. I was so glad when I read a product/ingredient list that I can still eat them. Also, we can have Jila mints, which have glucose syrup in them, but that's OK.

Another treat I just had today (not a lolly, but dessert) is Weiss Lemon Sorbet. It's just like traditional lemon gelati and very yummy. You can buy it at most supermarkets in the ice cream cabinet.

Cheers,

Cass.

[Saz]

Whoo, I I thought minties would have something bad in them so I was avoiding them, I'm going away this week, so I think I will have to get myself some.

Can anyone tell me where I can find a list of Nestle bars we can eat or If you know wich ones we can have, post them here please.

Also does anyone know of any mint/ choc mint ice cream we can have, that is available from supermarkets.

thnks:)

I thought they had glucose syrup in them from wheat ? Will go and recheck !

Have you tried writing to the company ? Streets were really good when I did that.

Hi again,

Weiss Lemon Sorbet does contain glucose syrup from wheat but as someone else mentioned in this thread, the Coeliac Society of Australia has confirmed that this is safe for us to eat (the wheat is so refined to create a sugar that no gluten remains in the glucose syryp).

Also, here's my list from Nestle of safe products for Coeliacs:

ZONES spearmint & peppermint

LIFE SAVERS all varieties

ALLENS freckles

ALLENS lollipops

ALLENS Steamrollers

MINTIES

WONKA Fruit Tingles

WONKA Gobstoppers 50gm, Made in USA

WONKA Fun Dip

WONKA Redskins, Made in New Zealand

NESTLE Choc, Milk & White CHOC BITS

NESTLE Choc, Milk & White MELTS

PLAISTOWE White Choc, Milk Chocolate and Dark Chocolate

NESTLE Cooking Chocolate

NESTLE Club Hazlenut Creme

NESTLE Club Rich Dark Chocolate

NESTLE Club Roasted Almond

NESTLE Club Rum n' Raisin

NESTLE Double Blend Milk Chocolate

NESTLE Double Blend Coconut Eclair Milk Chocolate

NESTLE Double Blend Mud Truffle Milk Chocolate

NESTLE Double Blend Fruit & Almond Milk Chocolate

WONKA Mud Sludge Chocolate

AERO Peppermint

AERO Milk

AERO Mixed fun-pack

ROLO 50gm stick packs only (Made in UK)

NESTLE Golden Rough

NESTLE Scorched Almonds

NESTLE Baking Cocoa

So there you go - lots of treats for Christmas! This list is from an excellent photocopied book of manufacturers' lists from my dietitian in Melbourne.

Cheers,

Cass.

Thanks Cass!

You just made my day! Peppermint Aero is something that I have tired searching for info on for a while, there was a few things in there that I was not sure about.

Hi everyone,

I am not a coeliac but my 10 year old daughter is so my knowledge of gluten free chocolates and lollies is pretty good as you can imagine.

You can definately eat chocolates and lollies with glucose syrup and caramel for those that don't know. Even if it states that glucose syprup and caramel is from wheat it is still safe too eat as is Dextrose.

Apparently Target do a party mix that is fine.

Chuppa Chups (except for cola flavour)

Jelly Bellys

Heaps of chocolates are fine - just read the ingredients for wheat products.

The Natural confectionary company do 1 or two that are okay - Fruit Salad jubes I think.

I would suggest contacting various companies such as Nestle, Cadbury etc. and asking them to send you out an updated list of gluten free products.
