Cotton Candy?

Does anyone out there know if cotton candy is gluten free? I'm assuming there is artificial flavoring in it, but I'm not totally sure what "artificial flavoring" means...with some products it's okay and with others it's not.

i know that cotton candy is basically colouring, corn syrup and sugar... if it's made at a fair or similar, it might be cross contaminated, otherwise, just call the company. i'm assuming it is safe.

Cotton candy is not a concern. It's gluten-free.

thanks! I ended up calling the company and they confirmed that their products are gluten-free. However, they could not guarantee that the final product, once made, would be gluten-free because of the variables involved.

My daughter was VERY pleased!!!!

I was so happy to hear I can still have Cotton Candy. It is one of my favorite things to eat. Cotton Candy ice cream by Hershey's is great too.

      Yes, that is the goal. Although, appearances can be deceiving. There are studies that show some dimensions of villous mucosa healing may forever evade the celiac. Somethig thath has been termed "gene scaring".: https://www.beyondceliac.org/research-news/potential-drug-to-treat-celiac-disease-prevents-damage-caused-by-gluten-in-recent-study-of-molecular-action/

      Your total IGA is normal. Total IGA is not a test for celiac disease as such. The total IGA score simply establishes whether or not you are IGA deficient. If people are IGA deficient, then the individual IGA antibody tests cannot be trusted as being accurate because they will likely yield artificially low scores.

      That is the goal of a gluten-free diet, @SunshineFace. But there is another possibility that you did not list, which is that no damage has occurred yet, and it may be a matter of time. However, if in your scenario, the EGD you reference occurred in someone previously diagnosed with celiac disease who had been eating gluten-free for some time, then, yes it likely does mean that healing has taken place.

      Hello @trents! May I ask the question in reverse? If I present at EGD with zero villous atrophy confirmed with multiple biopsies, that means I am either presenting as a non-Celiac OR I've eaten well enough for long enough to heal all remnants of Celiac-induced atrophy? Is that the goal of a Celiac eating a gluten-free diet? To be indistinguishable from a non-Celiac during an EGD?

      I make all tests without gluten diet. I know about it
