The Gluten Free Food & Drink Guide

6 pancakes come in this pack.

They are more like a a sweet muffin than a pancake. The texture was a bit dry and way too sweet for my liking.

Its so easy to make fresh pancakes with the Juvela GF flours I’d recommend you make your own all you need is some eggs GF self raising flour and a large non stick pan.

Unhealthy food hits the gluten free market!

I tried these for my lunch today and I have to say I feel worse for it! After cooking these from frozen on a baking tray I then removed them from the oven and extracted them from the quarter pint of fat that was left on the tray!

I was not impressed with the bleached processed chicken mush coated in breadcrumbs and the oooz that came out of it.

Not recommended Unless you like to eat junkfood!

A tasty pie - the flavour and texture reminded me of a Cornish Pastie. They use rosemary as a flavour enhancer in the Cheese and Potato version which comes across really well. I believe some of the range are also vegetarian and vegan.

A good effort from Buckfast Organic Bakery, gluten free pies are tricky to find in shops but you can order these on-line [ frozen ]

Juvela make a variety of products and I find the ‘long life’ - ready sliced variety is excellent. Many GF breads are dry and dificult to use for sandwiches but the Juvela GF sliced loaf makes great sandwiches which stay moist for a day.

Available on prescription too this range is one of the best tasting breads too. Not suitable for wheat, milk or lactose free diets. They use GF wheat starch in this product.

Lightly toast 2 slices of this product back to back in a toaster to make sandwiches.

I take this away on holidays with me as it lasts well, on flights the sealed packaging will expand with the pressure - also at altitude it expands so if you take it on a ski holiday you might find your bags difficult to open if you have several loafs in there.

Try this for a snack or an aperitif. Sainsburys Somerset Goats Cheese ( round type) slice it thin and place it on bread. the bread should be fully toasted one side, then buttered and partly toasted on the other side before you drop the cheese onto it for a final grilling. Serve this up with salad.. excellent!

It makes a great quick snack, I recommend Juvela white sliced loaf with this, you could even cut the bread into circles by using a large mug to cut off the crusts to make the presentation a little more special.

I love cheese, all types of cheese but I don’t like these!

They are so bad I once used them - as a threat to my three year old - if he didn’t eat his dinner up - he’d get one for his afters! He ate his dinner!!
Doves Farm make some really good cookies though - how these got through their quality tests I don’t know.

Gluten free pork pies are something of a rarity, these are pretty good for snacks or to fill out a packed lunch. Authentic pork pies, with a pretty tasty pastry glazed with egg - wrapped around lean pork, peppered with sage.

Made by hand on a farm in Claxton North Yorkshire where they raise their own animals.

Available frozen from GFF direct.
