Lidl does gluten free. Who knew?

Lidl Gluten free black and white pudding

                                                            

This is just one of many items in Lidl's new 'Just Free' range.
This pudding comes in at a price of just £0.89!

This product's a good'en everyone. 
Itndefinitely deserves to be awarded green.

The taste, texture and smell of this product is exactly the same as that of normal black and white pudding. I found no fault with it and thoroughly enjoyed it, so those of you who like a bit of pudding with your fry, definitely head down to your nearest Lidl store to purchase this.

I will be trying many more of Lidl's new range so keep your eye out for more posts if your interested!
Thanks for reading :)

Crumpets anyone?

Genius Gluten Free Crumpets.

These crumpets have been around for a while.

They are currently £1.28 for a pack of 4 crumpets, which is reasonably cheap, however I would keep your cash in your wallet.

I rate this product red. It's a no go.

The crumpets have a dry texture, and aren't very soft at all. They have, what I would call, the 'gluten free flavour' and are in no way similar to a 'normal' crumpet.

To make these crumpets in any way edible they need to be toasted and covered in jam (or a similar topping).

Sorry to disappoint any hopeful crumpet-lovers but this product is not worth the try.

 Hope you found this review helpful and remember to check back again next week to see  what Lidl has to offer!
 Thanks again!

Chocolate lovers read on...

Marks and Spencer's new chocolate fudge cake

Green, green, green!

This cake is very new in Marks and Spencer's.

It costs £3.50 currently, but believe me it's worth it!

Okay so this may be a product that I got slightly excited about.

Why? You ask. 

As all us gluten free freaks know (well maybe not the super healthy ones) there are a lot of gluten free chocolate cakes on the market and you would probably think while looking at this new one on the shelf, "Is this any different to the rest?"

Yes. Yes it is.

I was given this cake at a party and when I bit in to it the texture and flavour were so good that I actually had to check if it was gluten free!

The only fault I have is that there is slightly too much icing, however I think that's just personal preference

I strongly recommend that you pop this in to your basket next time you're in store, especially if you've been on a similar quest to me for a great chocolate fudge cake.

P.s. It's very good heated slightly in the microwave.

Once again I hope you all found this helpful. Please like, comment and share, all feedback is greatly appreciated.

Also follow me on instagram, pinterest and twitter to be kept up to date with my latest blog posts.

Check back this time next week to see what's next.

Many thanks!

First up... Genius Lemon and Poppyseed Muffins

Genius Lemon and Poppyseed Muffins

These muffins are relatively new to the shelves.

They come in a pack of 2 and there is also a blueberry variety.

Currently in ASDA supermarket this pack of muffins is £1.80.

I am rating this product amber.  

I did enjoy the muffins, however for some people the muffin may be too dry and the grittiness of the poppyseeds throughout may be off-putting. Also these muffins are not overly sweet so I prefer them for a weekend breakfast with a cup of coffee rather than a sweet snack.

All in all I think these muffins are worth trying especially as they are not just as pricey as others.

So there we have it. As promised a super quick and direct review. Hope you all found it helpful. Please share, subscribe and leave comments on any other products you would like me to check out for you all!
Another review next Wednesday everyone so please check back then!

Many thanks!

Gluten Free Brands... lets see what you've got!

Unlike most others, this blog is not about me. This blog is, simply, for all of you who are gluten free. 

The demand for gluten free products is increasing each day thanks to; high profile celebs, such as Gywenth Paltrow and Miley Cyrus adopting the gluten free diet and encouraging the rest of the nation to do so, and the diagnoses for conditions such as coeliacs disease being much more rapid and accurate than ever before.

Gwyneth Paltrow's second recipe book featuring a recipe for 'Gluten Free Granola'.

The gluten free market is now estimated to be worth £175m, according to Cliff Carter, the general manager of bakery brand Mrs Crimble's. 

This fact is what worries me. 

Free From aisle at Tesco store.

The many companies now producing gluten free and wheat free products; Warburtons, Genius, Udis and even the supermarkets themselves with their "Free From" ranges, are in a bid to win our money. However in my opinion due to this rush to release new products quality is often compromised. It seems that the lesson I was often taught at school "Quality over quantity" is no longer applicable, and 'all us gluten free lot' are the ones at a loss.

I intend to solve this problem. Why should you end  up out of pocket because you really thought Marks and Spencer's new free from chocolate cake would be the one to end your search for great gluten free indulgence?

I intend to build up a collection of  no nonsense gluten free product reviews. The reviews will be short, direct and quick to read. The products will be those found in the shops and supermarkets of the UK that I will trial and test so you no longer have to waste your money on crappy, crumbly products.

The first review will arrive to you on Wednesday, so please check it out!
Feel free to leave comments. I greatly appreciate any feedback!

Many thanks!
