Almost all regular ice creams are gluten-free unless they have obvious ingredients like cookies, brownies, cookie dough, Oreos, etc. For Ben and Jerry's, Breyers, Baskin Robbins and Popsicle all you have to do is read the ingredients. Turkey Hill, Edy's, and Dreyers have gluten-free lists that include most of their flavors.

Ben & Jerry

Breyers

Good Humor

Popsicle

These are some brands(above) that will not hide anything so if they have wheat,rye,barley,oats then they will clearly say that on the label

Edy's(check out their website for gluten free flavors)

TCBY & Baskin Robbins also have some gluten free ice cream.

oops now I see I was a few minutes behind Richards post with alot of the same info.

I'd have to recommend Edy's too. They rock :P

Anyone know if Klondike Bars are gluten-free? I saw a variety that has Hershey's Chocolate (which we know is gluten-free). Just curious if anyone has eaten these?

Thanks,

Klondike is another brand that will not hide anything so just check the label for wheat,rye,barley,oats and if there is none of that the enjoy! :D

Haagen-Dazs will mail you a gluten-free list, but basically just avoid Dulche de leche and all the obvious ones: brownies, cookie dough, strawberry shortcake, etc.

If you have a Cold Stone creamery near you they also have gluten free ice cream. Most of their flavors are gluten free as well as a lot of the mix ins, they use name brand mix ins like m&m's, reeses cups, etc... You can request that they use a clean paddle, and a clean section of counter. Also, the one near me lets me bring in Cerrone cones, or you can get your scoops in a cup. You can also get to go pints. Oh and they make the ice creams on location, so they should be able to tell you exactly what is in the flavors and which ones to avoid. Stay away from the hot fudge, it contains gluten

Some hot fudges do indeed contain gluten (I think Dairy Queens might) but fudge ice creams in general seem OK.

Bottom line -- ice cream, as long as you avoid the obvious -- is really a pretty safe treat for us.

Mayfield Ice Creams also have a gluten free list on their website!

Got a response!

Thank you for your inquiry about Kroger Brand Ice Cream.  We do have many Kroger Brand Ice Cream products that are considered gluten free. 

All Kroger Brand and Private Selection Brand ice creams and frozen yogurt products are gluten free except those with cake, cookie pieces, or candy pieces added (such as the Cookies and Cream, Butter Zinger, Malty Millionaire, etc).  There is a slight possibility of cross contamination due to cake and cookie items prepared in same plant but allergen precautions are taken to try to prevent any cross-contamination between allergens.

Please feel free to call our Dietitian line at 1-866-632-6900, Monday-Friday 10am

Country Rich brand chocolate at Wal Mart is glutenfree. It has a rich, delicious chocolate flavor!

KayJay Enthusiast

We just bought some blue bunny ice cream bars. Choc. on the outside vanilla on the inside they are really good.

I wanted some fudgesicles but I couldn't find any that were gluten-free. All of the ones at our store contain wheat. Anyone know of some please let me know.

BTW a lot of Blue bell Ice cream has wheat in it especially their chocolate it says on the label but just make sure to check.

Even though its a little pricey, Haagen Daz Strawberry Ice Cream is the best!!!!

:P

Since no one mentioned it yet, Friendly's makes good ice creams as well and they are cheaper than others out there. I prefer the (Black) Raspberry, it's awesome! :P

No friendly's here in TN, I know cause we used ot eat there all the time when I lived in NJ, but when I lived in NV and now in TN, there are none. They are not as wide spread as they should be.

Mayfield's fudge bars are gluten free

also Philly Swirl (an awesome company!) has a fudge swirl pop if you can find them. All of the stores around me only carry the Italian Ice and the popsicles, but I imagine their fudge swirls are just as good.

I have not seen any mention of Carvel ice cream, so I am adding it. The company makes ice cream cakes that can be made without the cruchies in the center. Carvel has become very small compared to what it used to be, but if there is one near you try it.

LOVE Carvel cakes. Even befor celiac disease I demaned them at any party for me. :D

Guest nini

are the Carvel cakes just ice cream or do they have a (gluten) cake base??? Dairy Queen's Ice cream cakes have a (gluten) cake base.

      If this applies geographically, in the U.K., physicians will often declare a diagnosis of celiac disease based on the TTG-IGA antibody blood test alone if the score is 10x normal or greater, which your score is. There is very little chance the endoscopy/biopsy will contradict the antibody blood test.

      TTG IgA reference range 0.0 to 14.9 KU/L
    • trents
      What was the reference range for that test? Each lab uses different reference ranges so a raw score like that makes it difficult to comment on. But it looks like a rather large number.

      I have had the tTG-IgA blood test my result are >250.0  I am waiting for the appointment with the gastroenterologist for endoscopy and biopsies.    what are the chances it’s not coeliacs.  waiting and not knowing is so hard. Especially the eating of gluten knowing it may be causing you more harm and coping with the symptoms.

      @sleuth, Has your son been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  All of those symptoms can be caused by malnutrition.  I had severe malnutrition that went unrecognized by my doctors.  Intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and gastrointestinal distress are symptoms of deficiencies in the eight essential B vitamins, especially Thiamine B1, which becomes low first because the demand is higher when we're sick.     Celiac Disease causes inflammation and damage of the intestinal lining which inhibits absorption of essential nutrients.  Checking for nutritional deficiencies is part of proper follow up care for people with celiac disease.   Is your son taking any vitamin supplements?  Most supplements contain thiamine mononitrate which in not readily absorbed and utilized by the body.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that is shown to promote intestinal healing.  Benfotiamine is available over the counter.  Benfotiamine is safe and nontoxic.   Is your son eating processed gluten-free foods?  Gluten-free processed foods are not required to be enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.   Is your son following a low histamine diet?  Histamine is released as part of the immune response to gluten and other foods high in histamine.  High levels of histamine in the brain can cause anxiety, insomnia, and depression.  The body needs the B vitamins to make the enzyme Diamine Oxidase (DAO) to break down and clear histamine.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Vitamin C helps clear histamine as well.  Some people find over the counter antihistamines helpful as well, but they're not for long term use.   Nicotine has antihistamine-like properties, but can also irritate the gut.  Tobacco, from which nicotine is derived, is a nightshade (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers and eggplant).  Nightshades contain alkaloids which affect gastrointestinal permeability, causing leaky gut syndrome.  Nicotine can cause gastrointestinal irritation and alter for the worse the microbiome. Safer alternatives to Nicotine that have antihistamine properties include Lemon Balm (Sweet Melissa),  Passion Flower, Chamomile, and Bilberry.  They can be taken as supplements, extracts, or tea.  These will help with the anxiety, insomnia and depression in a much safer way. Oolong tea is also helpful.  Oolong tea contains the amino acid L-Theanine which helps the digestive tract heal.  (L -Theanine supplements are available over the counter, if not a tea drinker.)  Tryptophan, a form of Niacin B3, also helps calm digestive symptoms.  Another amino acid, L-Lysine, can help with anxiety and depression.  I've used these for years without problems.   What ways to cope have you tried in the past?
