Ring Dings

For anyone who loved ring dings before going gluten free I found a very good substitute at our local health food store. They are called Ring Tings and are made by Shabtai Gourmet (Cinderella Sweets). They are a chocolate covered cake filled with a white cream filling. My son was in heaven last night. He hasn't had anything cream filled since before going gluten free.

These come out every Passover, along with lots of other gluten free cakes and cookies.

Dear Nic,

I am so glad you posted this! My brother would love those! He misses his pastries! Chad would marry Little Debbie if he could! :lol: Now that he is gluten-free, he has missed those treats. If I cannot find them locally, maybe I can order some for Christmas!

Sincerely,

I am looking into finding these as well. ALthough it was rare to buy Ring Dings before, some days I have cravings for them or other similar snack items, I rarely ever ate. Odd, huh?

Dear Amanda,

That is how I am, too! I used to not want some things hardly at all, but since going gluten-free, have craved them. I do not know why that is. My best guess is that it is due to knowing I cannot have them ever now! Your mind really has a major impact on what you want. The psychological ramifications of forbidden foods tend to do this. It is like when you are on a diet and are not allowed dessert, you want it more.

I absolutely LOVE their rainbow cookies. They are better than any of the gluten ones.

And their Lace cookies kinda taste like samoas. Sooooooooooo good!!!

Dear jkmunchkin,

I will keep those in mind! They all sound great! Cookies are my main sweet besides chocolate. Those are the two I love! Thank you for mentioning more treats!

of course I do splurge on candy a lot more now too. My coworkers look on in amazement and ask me how I can stay so thin and I am just thinking well I don't eat cake and cookies like you guys do. I work with some women who can eat cake and cookies by the lb and have no shame :)

Dear Amanda,

That is like me, too. I bake cookies some, but I have to watch the fat due to my gallbladder removal I had several years ago. High fat anything makes me sick. Cakes are something I almost never eat, except gluten-free. In the past year, I have had two. I am not as thin as I would like to be, but eat more candy than I should. The yeast makes me crave it, and my blood sugar gets low. Talk about an unfair situation!

Sincerely,

Dear wyldlife,

I need to contact Andrew, speaking of! My local healthfood store probably would like to carry some of their items. I am a cookie person, but my brother loves doughnuts. He really misses them! I bake, but he does not. This would be a great Christmas gift for him!

Dear forgetgluten,

Thank you so much for the info! :) I am going to browse. My brother will likely want a number of the items. He really loves doughnuts and pastries. Cookies are my primary love, but I can bake. Chad is more of the typical bachelor who does not use the oven.

Dear loco_ladi,

Unfortunately, he and Little Debbie could no longer see each other since going gluten-free. :(:lol: It has been heart-wrenching for him. Who knows, though? Maybe I can figure out how to make things that taste like Little Debbie snack cakes. Meanwhile, Cinderella Sweets is a great way to enjoy treats again without fear. :D

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

      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.

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
