Orgran Licorice

Well, the truth is in the title of this post. I heart GF Licorice. But so hard to find. Another UK brand creates a masterpiece with Orgran's black licorice. It is soooo good! Made with Molasses instead of wheat starch, you'll end up eating the whole bag!

If you are a lover of licorice like me, you may have just found your bite of heaven. I kid you not. You may not know it, but most licorice brands use some form of wheat in their ingredients. Sad but true! Brands like Twizzlers and Panda both use wheat starch. Brands like Orgran, Candy Tree and Jelly Belly (Licorice jelly beans) either use molasses or corn starch. These two ingredients are both safe.

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...
