Soy Protein

I am fairly new to Celiac Disease, and have never posted to a message board!! My 11 yr. old daughter was disgnosed a few months ago. I am trying to figure out if she is able to have candy corn. I think the only questionable ingredient is soy protein. Anyone know if that is gluten-free?

Soy protein...the product should be okay then. Could you tell us which brand it is? Because some look gluten-free, like Brach's, but deny being gluten-free due to some cross-contamination.

Sorry for the delay in responding! The product was Brach's.

I usually just buy the cheap brand that is the Store Brand like Giant Eagle or that generic candy brand that Wal-Mart sells. If I find out candy corn is not safe then my life as I know it is over and I am going to be really upset. I love that stuff, I eat it year round. Candy corn and swedish fish are a staple of life to me.

The ingredients in candy corn are usually gluten-free but most candy corn companies say their candy corn is not gluten-free due to cross contamination. Jelly Belly candy corn is gluten-free (I called last week).

Brachs, Here's Howie, Giant Eagle (made by Here's Howe), and Wegman's candy corn are not gluten-free due to cross contamination. Tania Greenville,Pa
