There is a God-Gluten-Free Licorice

I don't know about you, but I HEART Licorice.  It's too bad that MOST licorice brands contain wheat starch or some form of wheat in their ingredients.  When I went gluten-free I said goodbye Good and Plenty, goodbye Twizzlers and all those other brands like Panda and such.  Total bummer!

Even throughout the course of my gluten-free existance I found Austrailian brands that were gluten-free, but then upon receiving them and checking the ingredients I noticed Carmel Coloring.  Carmel coloring is a big no no culprit for me.  Some Celiac's can tolerate carmel coloring, and according to the FDA since it is under 20ppm of gluten it is acceptable.  But it is not 100% gluten-free.  So if you are sensitive like me, then this ingredients needs to be knocked off your "safe" list.  Now don't get confused with Caramel and Caramel Coloring.  They are different.  The first one is ok, the second is not.

Oh what to do, what to do.  So many dilema's going gluten-free.  Dilema no more!  Today my boss was craving licorice so she ordered her favorite off a fantastic website called Licorice International, and she just informed me that they have gluten-free candy!  She sent me the link and their licorice is made from the finest and non-artificial ingredients!  I checked myself!  So of course I am going to order some, and if the gluten-free versions are as good as my boss's favorite types, then this is a heaven-sent website!  They have cherry, black, creamy licorices!! and assorted candies, chewy, soft and hard.  YUM!

Enjoy!

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...
