Pancake Syrup


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

GFreeMO Proficient

I am allergic to pure maple syrup from the tree. It gives me hives. That being said, I need to find a pancake syrup that is gluten free. Karo has one called Pancake Syrup and their website says that all of their syrups are gluten free. It does list artificial flavors though. Anyone use this or know of anything else that I can use?

Thanks!

I love molasses or honey on pancakes. It's a different flavor than maple syrup, but any of the "pancake syrup" type products will have artificial maple flavoring.

Molasses is a great idea! Thanks!

What is the ingredient in the fake syrups that is bad for us? Is there hidden barley or something? Wheat would have to be listed so what makes them gluten-ey?

Nothing makes the ones that say gluten-free on the website gluteny. Some people don't like artificial flavors or artificial anything.

I always heard that the fake syrups were a no go as far as being gluten free. Are Aunt Jemima and Hungry Jack etc.? gluten free? I don't care if it's artificial, I just don't want gluten. :)

I just looked at the Hungry Jack lite ingredients. Not a lot of natural stuff but nothing jumps out at me that it contains gluten.

According to my "Is that gluten-free?" app, aunt jemimas are listed as gluten-free.

Dear Valued Consumer,

Thank you for taking the time to inquire about Pinnacle Foods Group, LLC and the products we produce which may be gluten-free. We appreciate your interest in our company and our products.

There is no gluten in the Log Cabin Butter Flavored Syrup, in Log Cabin Original and Log Cabin Lite. Log Cabin Country Kitchen syrups are also gluten free.

The caramel color used in LC Original syrup does not contain any gluten ingredients; product is 100% caramel color. There is no Barley in the Caramel Color of the Log Cabin syrups. Our caramel color suppliers do not use wheat or gluten as source material.

There is a flavor in the Sugar-Free Syrups that does contain barley, so the Log Cabin Sugar-Free syrups are not considered to be gluten-free. There has not been a formulation change to add or eliminate the gluten.

Our supplier has confirmed that the Rice Syrup used for the 100% Natural Log Cabin Syrup does not contain - nor is it processed using anything that contains gluten. Any gluten-containing materials are segregated from the non-gluten containing Rice Syrup.

While our manufacturing facilities follow the accepted good manufacturing practices, we do not have the flexibility of segregating production lines for the exclusive production of wheat-free items.

Since we are constantly improving our products, ingredients change on a regular basis which may affect gluten based ingredients. With that, we must recommend that you review the list of ingredients on the current package prior to purchase to ensure that you are meeting your specific dietary needs.

We appreciate the time you've taken to share your specific concerns with us, as it helps us to become aware of consumer needs. Thank you again for your contact.

Sincerely,

Hollie Allen

Thanks for posting this. My budget doesn't allow the pure maple syrup anymore, even though I really like it. It's nice to know the log cabin is safe. WooHoo I can have pancakes and waffles for supper again. :)

I've been eating Log Cabin with no problems and I am super sensitive with gluten. It's oky doky. :D

How about Steen's 100% Pure Cane Syrup? This is what I use, but of course it is made locally in Abbeville,Louisiana. DOn't know if you can get it where you are from. The website is www.steensyrup.com I find it much better tasting than maple syrup.

Another alternative to syrup is sweetened condensed milk or just plain butter and sugar. This is what I grew up on to use with pancakes. We would make really thin pancakes, top with butter and sugar and roll inot a log. This was called crepes.

I use jam. Way better than syrup! :)

My grandmother would make 'homemade syrup' with water and sugar and boil it until it got a little thick. I always loved it.

Thanks everyone for the info and wonderful ideas! I appreciate it so much!

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.

      Based on what you've described, it is absolutely possible you are dealing with non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS).  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.   Your situation is a classic presentation: a negative celiac panel but a clear, recurring pattern of symptoms triggered by gluten. The symptoms you listed—particularly the extreme fatigue, bloating, neurological-psychiatric symptoms like depression and anxiety, and even the skin manifestations like facial flushing—are all well-documented in research on NCGS. It's important to know that you are not alone in experiencing this specific combination of physical and emotional reactions. The only way to know for sure is to commit to a strict, 100% gluten-free diet under the guidance of a doctor or dietitian for a period of several weeks to see if your symptoms significantly improve. It is also crucial to rule out other potential causes, so discussing these symptoms with a gastroenterologist is a very important next step.
