CeliacChicks In La La Land
Pictured above is an assortment of Almond Glory products.
I had a great time at the Celiac Disease Foundation's Annual Conference in the City of Angels. Well over 300 people attended and over 50 vendors participated. Here are some photos of the interesting vendors that I met and the tasty new products that were featured.
Gayle Meyers (above) is the baker behind Almond Glory. Low carb, sugar-free, soy-free, good for you and delicious! Even my gluten glutton relatives liked the almond based pizza crust! Almond Glory is based out of Los Angeles, but you can still buy from any location online.
Here we are: Me (I'm not sure where the hand-on-hip attitude came
from at that moment.) , Eugenie from The Sensitive Baker, and my
sis-in-law Traci who filled in as an honorary CeliacChick for the event.
Are you ready L.A. for your first gluten-free and kosher retail bakery?!! The Sensitive Baker will be opening it's doors soon sometime in June! They ran out of their delicious waffles before I had a chance to photograph them. I can't wait to sample more of their goods next time I'm in town.
Cameo, of Crave Bakery based in San Francisco, poses with her pumpkin pies. She told me to look for her new lemon tarts coming out soon. (Some might say she's quite the tart herself!)
Mrs. & Mr. Tom Sawyer of Tom Sawyer Flour are the people responsible for Pizza Picazzo serving gluten-free pizzas. Thanks again!
Sergio models the latest lollipops at Yummy Earth Candy which is very Kelly-friendly!! No corn-syrup and no artificial nothin'. Double Yay!!
The GlutenFreeda girls pose with their delicious Real Cookies. My gluten glutton brother fell in love with their chocolate mint cookies.
Jigsaw bars contain 12 grams of protein. These are especially great if you are avoiding soy. Kim loves'em. These would be a handy snack to carry around in case you get in a gluten-free food scarcity bind. They come in coconut almond
The Montina Man poses with , well, what else but Montina! I have yet to experiment with my Montina grain. Any comments or recipes?
Those friendly Canuck's at Kinnikinnick actually found something without corn in it for me! The animal cracker/cookies are corn-free.
Here are those silly Xocai "the healthy chocolate" guys grinning with the CeliacChicks buttons they snagged! Ashton (far right) is modeling the CeliacChicks Seitan Is Evil tshirt.
I'd like to give a big "Thank You!" to Deborah and Elaine, the ladies behind the Celiac Disease Foundation , for all of their efforts in making this event a success for everyone! You look fabulous girls!
