Mariposa Baking Company
When we come across truly fine artisan-crafted gluten-free items, it’s an absolute sigh of relief. “Quality” is a word we can associate with Mariposa Baking Company. Biscottis, coffeecakes, tea loaves, brownies, and squares—all hand-crafted in a dedicated GF facility. All items are readily available to consumers online as well as wholesale. The storefront is the […]
Food Company Review: simplyrice™
Simplyrice™ rice crisps are gluten-free snacks with a kick. Each flavor is really a taste to be experienced. I love organic brown jasmine rice and this is the base for simply rice crackers. They have only four ingredients and all are 100% organic, according to the company: brown jasmine rice, sunflower oil, sea salt, and […]
Smart Treat – A Terrific Gluten-Free Company
(I am not paid or given any incentive to write one way or the other. What you are about to read is from me to you, my honest opinion.) Each Gluten-Free bite was unique, wholesome and had our taste buds asking for more. My Florida field testers and I had quite a reaction to the […]
Food Company Review: riceworks®
riceworks® offers tasty chips for us on a gluten-free diet. We all loved all the flavors we tested andhad a difficult time choosing a favorite. The chips are triangular in shape, light, made with whole grain brown rice, and have no artificialflavors, preservatives or gluten. In holding the chips up to light, you can actually […]
MI-DEL – Company and Food Review
A cookie story and a family story is the story of MI-DEL. Mr. Samuel Midel started off with creating healthy cookies in Chicago. Originally, he created sugar-free cookies at home and for his two daughters, and these cookies were always eaten up so quickly he knew he was onto something. Mr. Midel wanted to […]
Gorge Delights – Gluten Free Treats
Gorge Delights Just Fruit bars were a pleasant surprise to my taste buds after testing so many bars over the previous weeks. The bars, one for one, had the flavor of pure, bursting ripe fruit energy and nothing else. I then read the ingredients list, and confirming my hunch, I found the bars are 100% […]
Freeda Vitamins Are Gluten-Free
You’ve probably heard me speaking out about the importance of celiacs taking a gluten-free multivitamin regularly. Not only does a vitamin supplement help the body heal after the damaging effects of ingesting gluten, but it is a necessity on the gluten-free diet because gluten-free food products are generally not enriched with vitamins, especially the B vitamins. Lucky […]
Beanitos Bean Chips
Beanitos is the first corn-free, potato-free chip that we’ve tasted yet. We weren’t sure what to expect out of the two flavors at hand, Black Bean Chips and Pinto Bean and Flax Chips, but they were really good. The Beanitos are light in texture, like a thin potato chip, and have a light grainy yet […]
Kaia Foods
Hearty, nutritious, earthy, and unique are words I’d use to describe all of Kaia Foods’ products. Kaia (rhymes with “papaya”) is from the Sanskrit word for “body,” kaya, yet the owners spelled it like Gaia, for the Greek goddess of the earth. Hence, body and earth come together to depict the essence of Kaia Foods. […]

Cereal Vit- Gluten Free Cereal
Today we were testing and comparing notes of four flavors of cereal simultaneously at my Florida and L.A. studios. We had Cereal Vit’s Organic Corn Flakes, Organic Benevit Multi Grain Flakes, Organic Coffee Flakes (yes, coffee), and their just-released Choco Stars (yes, chocolate). The combined notes are really the only way to do a summary […]

The taste of this crust is light in texture yet hearty […]
Tina’s Use of the GF Bistro Pizza Crust
I have been known to not be one to follow directions so this is my version of the GF Bistro Pizza Crust which suited the testers quite well. We did try out the instructions included yet we feel the recipe turned out a slight bit better in the “crust department” when we made s light […]
O’Doughs
O’Doughs may be a newer name to those in the States, but they’ve established themselves quite well in Canada among the gluten-free community. Owner, Ari Weinberg, and his current product development team have an array of loaves, rolls, cakes, and pizza kits that are not only delicious but have the texture we’ve all been yearning […]
Cook-in-the-Kitchen
Cook-in-the-Kitchen has 4 gluten-free soups which we tested and really enjoyed. We did add a few touches, more in the area of protein and an occasional chopped fresh vegetable, but it was not a necessity to add anything to their full flavor soups. We used their Welsh Potato soup as a base for our Clam […]
Andean Dream- ONLY Gluten Free
Andean Dream’s Organic Quinoa-Rice Pasta cooks and tastes more like the “real” pasta I was used to eating before being diagnosed with celiac disease. I had seven people test the pasta with me. We all agreed. We introduced the pasta to those not on a GF diet, and they couldn’t tell it was GF pasta—that’s […]
