Pennaten Creme

[debmidge]

Best baby rash creme ever but is it gluten Free?

[Ursa Major]

I went to the German Penaten website, and checked out the ingredients. Unfortunately they list something vague like 'skincaring additives' (losely translated, that's the best I can come up with that means what it says). Which could well include wheat germ oil.

So, I sent them a message and asked if the creme contains wheat germ oil. I'll post their response when I get it (and will translate it, of course ).

Ursa We've been using it here in NJ since the 1960's -- used to be a big concentration of Germans here in union County area. A Day Care lady I know is hooked on this and won't use anything else. Too bad they don't make it in a tube.

Thanks for your help.
