Gluten-Free Watercooler-Pip's Place Cakery Opening

I have not yet been to Pip's Place, but I hear it's fantastic.  A bit expensive, but what isn't these days? and located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan on 1st Avenue between 89 and 90th Street.  Featured in the New York Times as the first upscale gluten-free bakery. (Featured in Daily News, CBS, SnackFixation, Next Magazine, Celiac Chics (used to be a blog, now a .com)

There is no possibility of cross-contamination.  Woo Hoo.  They also serve coffee (total bonus) and sell the beans, made and roasted in Brooklyn.  Ah, NY made, nice.  Cappuccinos, latte's and coffee drinks galore, cakes, cookies, muffins, squares and more.  And total beyondo bonus?  They ship.  They ship throughout North America and in the Tri-State area.  Bam!

Cakes  Bam!
Muffins   Bam!
Cookies  Bam!
Squares  Bam!
More Treats  Bam!

Recently my friend mentioned to me that she bought the Gum Drop Loaf, and even though it sounded gross it was fantastic and that I had to get my butt up to the UES and have some.  Now, gum drop loaf sounds like something out of candy land!  And it doesn't sound gross, it sounds amazing!! Great!  Super Fab.  I have to make my way up there, but I didn't want to deprive all of my NYC, Manhattan readers of this fabulous find.  They have been open for quite a few months, but as usual, I have such a long list of blog posts to complete, I was late to post this shout-out.  Better late then never.

Enjoy!  xoxo Julie

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com  

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

What's in The Gatorade You Are Drinking?

I don't know why I never blogged about this, but I have known it for some time.  And was just reminded of this the other day while I was at CVS and felt the need to spread the gluten-free word.  I also tweeted it. Did you know that certain Gatorade flavors like the fruit punch (red) flavor has caramel coloring in it?  Yup! It totally does. In the U.S. a processed product considered gluten-free has 20 or below 20ppm ( parts per million ).  Therefore products can seem gluten-free and even say gluten-free, even if they are not 100% gluten-free because our standards allow that and consider it Gluten-Free.   And different processed foods contain different levels of gluten-some contain less then 10ppm or even 5 parts per million.  That's lower but still...no cigar. The less you consume the better and the article I just found on Celiacdisease.about.com  points that the more under 20ppm/10/5ppm products you consume, the more gluten in your system...
