Now I am dissapointed. I was hoping that they would be cheaper than that. I can get other mixes for that price. Hopefully that price won't stay that high for long!

I haven't seen them at Meijer; will be looking at Kroger's tonight. I don't think 4.49 is all that bad; I forget what the Gluten Free Pantry's yellow cake mix was, but honestly I'd pay more if the Betty Crocker tastes better than the GFP one. That mix produced a horrible, dry cake and was only one layer! If Betty Crocker's mixes make a 2 layer cake, that right there is a better bargain than a gluten free mix that only makes one layer.

Agreed, if it makes a 2 layer cake, it's not a bad price. If it's just enough mix for one layer, not so much. I'm curious to see how it tastes though.....so I'll buy it at least once just to try it out. No signs of it here in Texas yet, but we also just got the Honey Nut Chex, so I'm guessing it will be a while.

i want to say almost all of gfp's mixes are upwards of $6.00 but i could be wrong. i will definitely be willing to pay $4.50, espwcially since they have gotten awesome reviews. check this one out:

If I remember correctly, an earlier thread in March, said they only make 1 layer :(

Yep, one layer. Not such a great price.

I'm reviewing it on the other thread I started.:)

I paid $3.99. Even if you must pay more, it's worth it. The cookies are really good!

How many cookies does the mix make? Average size cookies because I guess that can vary!!

I found the mixes today!! Krogers in College Station tx had them. They were out of the cookie mix, but i got 2 cake mixes and 1 brownie mix. They were $4.19 a piece, and only make 1 layer. I am really dissapointed by that. I hope the prices come down to match the regular cake mixes! I will make the cake tomorrow (it's my dd's bday) and let yall know!

The mix made 12 large cookies, like the size you would get at a bakery (I like to make them big). I just had two for breakfast. They are still soft the next day! Gluten free cookies tend to get crumbly the next day (in my opinion) and these did not!

I found the chocolate chip cookie mix at Wegman's in Pennsylvania. Price was 3.99...makes 24 average size cookies(aka ChipsAhoy size). We made 12 cookies and saved the other half of the batter to test how the dough holds up frozen and baked at another time. They were really good. A little crumbly the next day, but still taste great. I'm excited to try the other mixes when I can find them. We make a lot from scratch, but it's nice to have more mixes available when in a pinch.

I found them at Krogers in Indiana . . . the price was $4.49 no matter if it was cake, cookie, brownie - all but the cookies were sold out . . . they were in with the regular cake mixes on the bottom shelf.

We have not found them here in Miami, Florida. I have spoken to several Publix Grocery managers and they all said that it was up to the distribution wharehouse to decide when the stores get them. So I emailed the Publix headquarters and asked them. I will post if and when I hear form them as to when the mixes will be available.

I checked 2 major stores last night (Idaho) and couldn't find them yet...but W-mart moved their gluten-free products to the baking aisle. They also finally had 3 of the Chex cereals that say gluten-free on the box. Things are lookin' up ;)

Hi - saw all the notes on Betty Crocker mixes....does anyone know if they are egg free (do you have to use an egg to mix), and soy free?????? Boy, I just starated out on gluten free about 4 weeks ago and it surely is a hit and miss for me.

I just found out thru "Matt....."that Kellogs Rice Krispies I gather is not glutten free. I now bought Glutten Free Rice Chex....does anyone know if their okay???? Ingredients looks okay, but I've learned that's the usually the whole story. I am also am trying to find a chicken broth, (yes I know I should make, but prefer not to)....just plain broth, no soy, no egg, etc.??????

I bought the tapioco light bread at a health food store, it last almost year (unopened) will go back and buy a bunch and have on hand (not close by)........

Wow, this is really something to try and switch your entire eating over to another source particularly w/the egg, soy, dairy, and gluten no go's. Any help would be appreciated.

d

oats are okay for me, any ideas for making oakmeal cookies w/o an egg?

Thanks in advance!

Peace.....the best gluten/soy free chicken stock I have found is natural Kitchen Basics brand. I buy the 8 oz. boxes, although they come in larger 32 ounce boxes also. They sell chicken, beef, and vegetable stock, all gluten/soy free. The flavor is excellent. The chicken stock consists of: chicken stock, chicken flavor, sea salt, honey, vegetable stocks (carrot, onion, mushroom,celery),bay, thyme, pepper. It is labeled gluten free. I'm able to purchase this brand at a Kroger (Fry's) Supermarket....other supermarkets in this area do not carry this brand, so I usually wipe out the stock that is on the shelf,but always leave 1 for another customer. I figure this is my way of guaranteeing that they will always sell this brand!

Rachael Ray also has a gluten/soy free beef stock, and Walmart also carries a soy/gluten free beef stock, their own brand and a soy/gluten free chicken stock that has milk in it!

If I remember correctly, Rice Krispies has malt in it....I made the mistake of buying it about a year ago and it made me sick. I forgot to read the ingredients!! Rice Chex is gluten free, but I've noticed that the price has gone up quite a bit...even in WalMart, so I have stopped buying it.

The rice chex labeled gluten-free are gluten-free.

You should try out the tapioca bread before you stock up on it. IMO, it tastes like cardboard. And it is cheaper to make your own bread.

Oats are NOT ok for a Celiac. They are often grown in a field with wheat and processed on the same equipment as wheat. but if you are getting the gluten-free oats, then that is fine.

There are plenty of egg substitues out there.

The betty crocker mixes do use eggs, but you may be able to use an egg substitute. But they do have soy in them as well.

One tip is to watch for gluten-free/vegan products and recipes...no gluten, egg, dairy...but some may have soy. My dd eats soy so I have not looked for soy free. You will lean alot on here in a short time ;)

Today I purchased BC cake mixes.....they use 3 eggs, and butter. I'm also allergic to dairy and soy so will try the cake mix with Spectrum. Cookie and brownie mix have soy in them, and the cake mixes say "may contain soy ingredients". Oh well, I'm happy making my own from scratch recipes and Namaste products have worked out very well for me.

Bought them here in Utah for $4.49. Yellow mix only so far. Went home and cooked it up and...

Don't know what I did wrong, but very gritty! Taste and texture just fine, but gritty, like something didn't mix well (I've run into this using course rice flour, so maybe that's the problem). I'm curious to see if anyone else has had this problem.

      Awaiting Biopsy results

      I have had my endoscopy this morning with biopsies. My consultant said that it looked like I did have coeliac disease from what he could see. I now have to wait 3 weeks for the biopsy results. Do I continue eating gluten till my follow appointment in three weeks.

      Stomach hurts with movement

      Hi @emzie and welcome to the forum. Perhaps could be residual inflammation and bloating that is causing sensitivity in that area.

      Hi! One of the usual symptoms I have with a gluten flare up has deviated a bit and I thought I'd search for advice/opinions here. Also to see if anyone goes through similar stuff. Monday all of a sudden I got really bad pain in my stomach (centre, right under the chest, where the duodenum would be located). I ended up having to throw up for 2 hours, my body...

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Hi. So sorry to hear about your shingles. There is a lidocaine cream that you can get at Walmart that will help numb the pain. That's what I used for mine. It can't be put near your eyes or in your ears. I hope your doctor gave you valacyclovir which is an antiviral. It does lessen the symptoms. If it is in your eyes, see an ophthalmologist. They have...

      Hi @emzie and welcome to the forum. Perhaps could be residual inflammation and bloating that is causing sensitivity in that area.  I was diagnosed with coeliac disease in 2013 and I remember some years ago my sister telling me around that time that she had a lady in her church, also a coeliac, who  had real pain when she turned her torso in a certain direction whilst doing exercises, but otherwise was responding well to the gluten-free diet. As far as I know is still the picture of health. I often end up with pain in various parts of my gut if I eat too much rich food or certain types of fibre (for some reasons walnuts make my gut hurt, and rice cakes!) and and as a rule, the pain usually hangs around for a number of days, maybe up to a week.   When I bend over or turn, I can feel it.  I think this is actually due to my other diagnosis of IBS, for years I thought I had a rumbling appendix but I think it must have just been IBS.  Reading the experiences of other sufferers, it seems quite typical.  Sensitized gut, build up of gas - it stands to reason that the extra pressure of turning can increase the pain. When I am glutened I get a burning, gnawing pain in my stomach on and off for some days - it isn't constant, but it can take up a few hours of the day.  I believe this to be gastritis, but it seems to hurt irrespective of movement.   Anyway, you are doing the right thing to seek a professional opinion, though, so do let us know how you get on.   Meanwhile, might I suggest you drink peppermint tea, or try slices of fresh ginger in hot water? A lot of IBS sufferers say the former is very helpful in relieving cramps, etc, and the latter is very soothing on the stomach. Cristiana

      Hi! One of the usual symptoms I have with a gluten flare up has deviated a bit and I thought I'd search for advice/opinions here. Also to see if anyone goes through similar stuff. Monday all of a sudden I got really bad pain in my stomach (centre, right under the chest, where the duodenum would be located). I ended up having to throw up for 2 hours, my body was trying to get rid of something from all sides and it was just horrible. Since then I havent been nauseous anymore at all, but the pain has stayed and it always worsens the moment i start moving. The more I move the more it hurts, and when i rest longer it seems to dissapear (no movement). I've had this before, but years ago I think around when I first got diagnosed with coeliac, where each time I moved, my stomach would hurt, to the point where I went to the ER because doctors got freaked out. That only lasted 1 night though, and Now it's already wednesday, so 3 days since then, but the pain persists and remains leveled. it doesn't get crazy intense, but it's still uncomfortable to the point I cant really go out because Im afraid itll turn into a giant flare up again. I couldn't think of where I could possibly have been glutened at this bad of a level and why it hasn't passed yet. I went to the GP, and as long as I have no fever and the pain isnt insane then its fine which I havent had yet. Tomorrow im also seeing a gastroenterologist specialized in IBS and coeliac for the first time finally in years, but I thought I'd ask on here anyway because it still hasnt dissapeared. It also hurts when someone presses on it. Maybe it's just really inflamed/irritated. I'm just frustrated because I'm missing out on my uni lectures and I do a sports bachelor, so I can't get behind on stuff & next to that i'm also going to go to the beach with my boyfriend's family this weekend: (

If it is in your eyes,  see an ophthalmologist.  They have an antiviral eye drop that can be prescribed.  Shingles in the eye could cause blindness.  I was unsure whether you have celiac or not.  If you do,  follow the diet.  I believe that extra stress on your body does affect everything. Shingles can recur. If you start getting the warning signs of nerves tingling,  see the dr and start taking the valacyclovir to prevent a breakout. If I sound technical,  I am a retired pharmacist.

      celiac disease and braces

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You are right to be proactive, as research does indicate that individuals with celiac disease can have a higher predisposition to enamel defects, cavities, and periodontal issues, even with excellent oral hygiene. While many people with celiac successfully undergo orthodontic treatment without complication, your caution is valid. It may be beneficial to seek a consultation with an orthodontist who is familiar with managing patients with autoimmune conditions or who is willing to collaborate with your daughter's gastroenterologist or a periodontist. They can perform a thorough assessment of her current oral health, discuss your specific concerns about recession and decay, and create a tailored hygiene plan. This second opinion could provide a clearer risk-benefit analysis, helping you decide if addressing the cosmetic concern of the lower teeth is worth the potential risks for your daughter, especially if they are not currently affecting function or her confidence.
