Non Dairy, gluten-free Flavored Coffee Creamer?

[Miss.Slick]

I have only started the gluten free diet recently, and I have been desperately looking for a gluten free, dairy free coffee creamer with some flavor, I really don't care for just soy milk in my coffee, I find it's to thin and I don't enjoy the taste. I attempted to find out if Silk flavored creamer was gluten-free, or if Belsoy was, but I couldn't find anything definitive. These are the only two I have come across in the stores here. I am in Canada if that make a difference.

If anyone has any ideas or knowledge about this I would totally appreciate it, I am craving coffee that I love made from home soo badly!

Thank you

Have you tried the coconut milk creamers? They are sold under the "So Delicous" label. I really like the flavor as a creamy substitue and have to have the bit of sweet in my coffee as well!

The Silk says right on the container that it is gluten free.

Thanks for your responses, I haven't seen the coconut one, but I will try to track it down. Small city here. The Silk brand here is not labeled as gluten free. I wonder what the difference would be.. I see your in the States.

Its stange how its labelled. It has some stuff about natural & dairy free & gluten-free. Not with the ingredients just on the side. Does Canada have gluten-free labelling laws? US doesn't.

Coffeemate in the US is clearly labeled dairy free and gluten free - they have a ton of flavors and are delicious. Not sure if they're available to you there in Canada but I hope so!

Coffeemate is NOT really dairy free. The dairy free label in the US really means LACTOSE free, not necessarily CASEIN free.

Hmm, now I can't remember if I checked the entire writings on the Silk or not, so I'll go check again , thanks. I am really not sure about the gluten labeling laws in Canada. I know they don't have to list the source of starches and that sort of thing. Gluten is not included in the major allergens to label for, so I think we are probably much the same then.

We do have coffee-mate here. I used to be a coffee mate junkie for years. I am a little paranoid of the coffee-mate, I remember hearing ears ago that is is linked to health issues, I don't know if that holds true but I remember parkinson's and alzheimer's being two of the concerns. I think it was aluminum and it was in many non-dairy creamers as well as some other foods, and cookware.

how about trying something like almond milk. i just bought it to use in smoothies. it was DELISH!!!!! the vanilla is yummie and it's slightly sweet, not overly so. it's not reallly nutty tasting either, just a slight flavor. i bet it would be yummy yummy yummy!!!! dairy and casien and gluten free!!!

good luck!!!!
