2016 Gluten Free Baking Product List

Holiday baking season is officially in full swing, and I know there is nothing more annoying and discouraging than finding a recipe you want to make, going to the grocery store and then not knowing what is gluten free! Trust me… I’ve been there (with my eyes filled with tears from frustration and hating being gluten free).

As with everything that goes along with being gluten free, baking is no different… we just need to be prepared! Looking back, I can’t believe the first year I was gluten free I missed out on baking all my favorite things, just because I was unsure of what I could have. Now I always research ahead of time and bring a list with me of brands and products I can have!
