Baker's Bittersweet Chocolate Ok?

Can anyone tell me if they have had confirmation that Baker's Bittersweet Baking Chocolate Squares (Kraft) is gluten free? The only concern would be the natural flavor (I think).

Also -- Ghirardelli 100% Cacao unsweetened chocolate?

Tried to call the customer service number but they are closed for the weekend - would really like to make a gluten-free chocolate cake for Easter!

Thanks!

I just saw this post and picked up the box of Baker's sitting on the counter next to me, which I am about to use (in the next 10 minutes) to coat the peanut butter and coconut eggs that are currently chilling in the fridge. And crossing my fingers someone doesn't give us bad news. I'm not cautious enough and I rarely call of the ingredients look okay and if I haven't heard bad things.

EDIT: In little print it says it's manufactured by Kraft Foods, and I know for a fact Kraft is one of the food manufacturers that will never hide gluten ingredients in sneaky words.

I am sooooo careful about contacting companies and have done so with this product. I was assured, as was mentioned above, that Kraft will make it clear if there is any gluten source on their products.

So, you should be good to go!

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Since I've been a member of this forum,  I've seen some people write that they have not been able to tolerate corn, and others nightshades - tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and peppers (including bell peppers, chili peppers, and paprika).    However, intolerances can be short term, just while you are healing.    So bear this in mind if you start dropping certain foods from your diet - you may well be able to eat them again once you are healed.

      Welcome to the forum, @Izelle! Normally, the diagnosis of celiac disease involves two stages.  The first stage involves a simple blood test that looks for antibodies that are pretty specific to celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the lining of the small bowel which produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood with tests specifically designed for this purpose. There are a number of these tests that can be run. Some are more specific for celiac disease and thus more reliable than others. The two most common antibody tests ordered by physicians when diagnosing celiac disease are the "total IGA" and the "tTG-IGA" test. At least these two should always be ordered. Here is a an article outlining the subject matter of celiac antibody tests:  If the tTG-IGA levels are 10x normal then it is becoming common practice in some countries to grant a celiac diagnosis on the bloodwork alone. The second stage involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to look for the damage to the small bowel lining typically caused by celiac disease's inflammatory process over time. This is usually done in response to one or more positives from the blood antibody testing and constitutes confirmation of the antibody testing to eliminate the possibility of false positives.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.
