Help does anybody have any recommendations on where I could find some soy free, dairy free, gluten free chocolate?

I use Open Original Shared Link. It's available in the Kosher section of many grocery stores. Enjoy Life also makes gluten, dairy and soy free chocolate.

They're all *good* chocolates, so they aren't cheap. But I cannot FATHOM eating a whole 2-3oz dark chocolate "bar" in one sitting. One of those things will last me about a week, if I'm eating chocolate every day. Dark chocolate is an acquired taste, if you don't already like it, so give it a chance.

I generally get my chocolate from: Open Original Shared Link (based in Portland), and winter is a perfect time of year to do shipping. I have found Theo locally (but, it's a Seattle company, and I live in the Puget Sound ;) ), and have found Cluizel and Castelain at Cost Plus World Market, which is fairly common on the West Coast.

Enjoy Life's is ok, but ... well, it's not *good* chocolate. :P (Yes, I am a self-admitted chocolate snob. I think Hershey's chocolate is foul tasting. So, your mileage may vary with my advice. :D )

I just recently foudn Enjoy Life's "boom CHOCO boom" dark chocolate bars and they are YUMMY!!! I have always been a chocolate snob and have been dancing a happy dance since finding these. They are Dairy-free, Gluten-free, Nut-Free and Soy-Free!!! I found it at Kroger's and a 1.4 oz. bar costs 1.59. I looked them up online and they seem to run about 1.79 on some of the shopping sites. 1.4 oz doesn't seem like much, but it has 4 sections to it and I try to stick to having one section a day. It's a WONDERFUL treat!!

Oh, I see you're in WA. If you're near Seattle, you can head over to Theo (it's in Fremont) and do a factory tour (free public tours, paid group tours w/ 10 person minimum). It's awesome, with lots of tasting.

the boom choco boom with crispy rice was good until i tried 'dark chocolate dream with almond'. it's like $3 bar but it's bigger then the enjoy life boom choco bar. I got it at kent nature's market, I don't remember if Whole Foods or PCC has it. I don't care for dark chocolate but to me this tastes like real milk chocolate. It's dairy/gluten free. also vegan chocolate chips are pretty good frozen.

Thank you so much. I live in the Puget Sound as well....I'm about an hour from the Candian border. But when I visit my mom in Everett I will be sure to check out Cost Plus World Market. I think the have one in Redmond. Thank you so much...I will check them all out on the web.

I just found out Pier One Imports carrys Theos chocolate bars so I will be on my way down there today. The lady on the phone told me they have five varieties so hopefully they will have ones I can consume.

      Is it gluten?

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
