Gluten Free Dairy Free Chocolate Coffee


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

I am gluten, soy, and casein free. I was really really craving something sweet and chocolatey. I stirred a heaping tablespoon of Hersheys cocoa powder with a tablespoon of sugar into a large mug of plain coffee. It's REALLY good. So even us gluten-free, cf, soy free people can enjoy a hot chocolate/flavored coffee type of drink.

Yum.

You also "activate" cocoa with heat...you could use cocoa like bar chocolate that way, also. Just combine with hot water.

Oooh sounds good right about now. I also like making hot chocolate (if you can have rice) with Pacific brand rice milk, cocoa powder, raw honey (but sugar would certainly work) and a dash of sea salt. Soooo good. Make sure the rice milk is Pacific brand though, I think it's one of the only ones truly gluten free. I'm pretty sensitive and I don't react to it.

Yummy! I can't find that brand anywhere around here so I usually make my own rice milk. I'll have to try it in place of the coffee sometime. Thanks for the idea. It's hard being casein free to find something chocolate. Glad there is cocoa powder!!

Try going to the Hershey's website. I believe they tell how to use cocoa in place of hard chocolate.

The point is that when you heat cocoa it changes the flavor

(strength, depth). Some people can't use any bar chocolates and use cocoa as a substitute.

Excellent - how do you make that? Do you just put rice in a blender and strain? Don't laugh - I'm not exactly the domestic type.

Yes, Cook the rice, and put it in a blender with some water, honey or sugar or vanilla. Whatever you want and blend it until smooth. I dont bother straining it b/c the sediment sinks to the bottom but if you dont want that, just strain and refrigerate. It's really easy and cheap.

Sounds like even I can't screw that up!!! ha I'll be giving that a try this weekend. Thanks so much.

      The EMA test is an old and less sensitive test for anti-tTG2 antibodies. It relies on a technician using a microscope to check for fluorescence of a labelled substrate (typically monkey oesophagus or human umbilicus), giving a simple positive/negative result. It is similar to running a standard anti-tTG2 test but with a high cut-off, making it more specific but less sensitive. Transient rises in tTG2 can be caused by e.g. viral infections and inflammation. Very high levels of anti-tTG2 (>x10 standard range) are almost certainly coeliac disease but moderately raised levels can have several causes apart from coeliac disease. Other food allergies can cause villi blunting but that is much rarer than coeliac disease or other non-coeliac causes. Not All That Flattens Villi Is Celiac Disease: A Review of Enteropathies

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.
