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...

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

The Original Fudgsicle Mishap

My Grocery Cart About 3 months ago I was in the market as usual, doing my weekly grocery shopping, in the second to last row: the freezer section. I wanted my weekly fudge pop indulgence. I grabbed the package in the backity back!! The most frozen one I could find, and decided to blog this wonderful gluten free treat. I realized I had never blogged about this fudge pop being gluten-free, and how silly of me to keep this tid bit to myself. So I grabbed my phone to take a picture of the front and back of the box. I gasped! omg, omg, omg. I starred at the ingredients. MALT FLOUR. Yikes! No way! It can't be. How come I never noticed this before? Did the ingredients change? Was it always like this? Something had to have changed and then to top it off I noticed at the bottom of the ingredient...
