The Absolutely Best Gluten Free Bread I Have Had!

I swear I am so happy! I had heard about this bread from a couple of people and thought there was no way it would taste like wheat or be soft, light and spongy like wheat. I have to tell you it is! I can't believe I have been suffering all this time. My brother who does not have celiac disease came over right after I baked a loaf and he had four slices! Anyway here is the link: Open Original Shared Link

Also if any of you live near Downers Grove, Il., they just opened up a gluten-free only store there in August 2005. I found them by searching where to get the bread mix from. The name is Eat to Live and their number is 630-964-5316 (I have no financial interest in this business).

Bread is the one thing I really missed because I love sandwiches, french toast, garlic toast, etc. so I really am pleased with the product.

Also they had some english muffins by Kinnickik or something like that that was excellent! Nice and crusty outside and soft and spongy inside. I'm in heaven!!!

I've been raving about Anna's breads for a year! I love them too, sometimes I do them in my bread machine other times I put them in the oven and make rolls, its so good tasting!

Which one of their bread mixes did you try? Also...did you use a bread machine?

Have you tried their banana bread mix or the pumpkin break one?

Anna's does have the best texture...

I have tried the banana bread mix and was not crazy over it. However, after adding more bananas and making muffins (instead of a loaf of bread) I love it.

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".

      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
