Hershey's Irish Creme Kisses?

Someone gave us a lot of Hershey's Irish Creme kisses at Christmas and I keep forgetting to ask if anyone knows if they are gluten-free or not? The kids are bugging me about them, so I googled it and looked it up on the forums and I'm not finding much on it. The website doesn't even have these listed.

We don't have the bag, they were given with some other things.

Anyone have experience with them? If not, they are going to my husband's co-workers. Thanks!

i wss glutoned by the candy cane kisses....so i would be very wary about the irish creme ones. a lot of candy and choc companies put gluten free on their packages but hershey's is not able to make that claim. i probably would give them away if i were you.

Thanks! I probably will, unless I hear something different today. I hesitate to eat Hershey's, but I do let them have the regular kisses. I read that the mint truffle kisses were okay, and found a gluten-free recipe using them, but like I said above, haven't been able to find anything about the Irish creme.

Neither the candy cane nor the irish cream kisses actually have gluten in them. Cross contamination might be an issue but the ingrediants do not contain gluten! hope this helps!

I eat Hershey kisses of various sorts with no problems.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
