Dark Choc. Macadamia Nuts W/ Confectioner's Glaze


Crimson

Recommended Posts

This is what I found about this confectioner's glaze.... The LAC resin is dissolved in alcohol. I'm not sure if this is why or if it's just a sensitivity that I have. Every time I've tried eating these things, I get sick.

I notice that there are some that react to things that may have to do with this type of coating too.

This link is an interesting read...

CONFECTIONER'S GLAZE - Technical Information

Maple Leaf brand glazes are alcohol solutions of various types of food grade shellac. These are available in various concentrations or "LB cuts" which refers to the pounds of the lac resin dissolved in one gallon of alcohol to make a particular cut of glaze.

These glazes are used extensively in the food industry as a natural sealer which improves the general appearance of the product, extends the shelf life, provides good moisture protection and stops the coated product from sticking together when packaged.

Coloured confections coated with Maple Leaf Brand glaze will have greater colour stability and reduced bleeding which is extremely important in cake and ice cream decorations. Other applications where glaze would be used include:

      Does anybody know of a guide that ranks reevaluates universities and colleges in terms of their accommodation of celiac disease or food allergies?   Thanks in advance for any leads! Valerie

      thank you, i have been doing that the last few weeks and will continue to do so. I had not had my ttg iga checked since I was diagnosed 14 yrs ago so I am not sure if they ever dropped below the 15-20 range.    all my other labs are completely normal but I am concerned that this may be signs of refractor celiac or something else since I'm so careful with gluten-free diet

      Around 9% of celiacs cannot tolerate any oats, even gluten-free oats. It might be worth eliminating them for a few months, then get re-tested.

      I only eat certifed gluten-free products but a lot of which are processed. Could there be trace gluten in those or is that very unlikely? 
    • Scott Adams
      For people with celiac disease hidden gluten in their diets is the main cause of elevated Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibodies (tTG-IgA), but there are other conditions, including cow's milk/casein intolerance, that can also cause this, and here is an article about the other possible causes (you may want to avoid oats):
