Non Dairy, gluten-free Flavored Coffee Creamer?

I have only started the gluten free diet recently, and I have been desperately looking for a gluten free, dairy free coffee creamer with some flavor, I really don't care for just soy milk in my coffee, I find it's to thin and I don't enjoy the taste. I attempted to find out if Silk flavored creamer was gluten-free, or if Belsoy was, but I couldn't find anything definitive. These are the only two I have come across in the stores here. I am in Canada if that make a difference.

If anyone has any ideas or knowledge about this I would totally appreciate it, I am craving coffee that I love made from home soo badly!

Thank you

Have you tried the coconut milk creamers? They are sold under the "So Delicous" label. I really like the flavor as a creamy substitue and have to have the bit of sweet in my coffee as well!

The Silk says right on the container that it is gluten free.

Thanks for your responses, I haven't seen the coconut one, but I will try to track it down. Small city here. The Silk brand here is not labeled as gluten free. I wonder what the difference would be.. I see your in the States.

Its stange how its labelled. It has some stuff about natural & dairy free & gluten-free. Not with the ingredients just on the side. Does Canada have gluten-free labelling laws? US doesn't.

Coffeemate in the US is clearly labeled dairy free and gluten free - they have a ton of flavors and are delicious. Not sure if they're available to you there in Canada but I hope so!

Coffeemate is NOT really dairy free. The dairy free label in the US really means LACTOSE free, not necessarily CASEIN free.

Hmm, now I can't remember if I checked the entire writings on the Silk or not, so I'll go check again , thanks. I am really not sure about the gluten labeling laws in Canada. I know they don't have to list the source of starches and that sort of thing. Gluten is not included in the major allergens to label for, so I think we are probably much the same then.

We do have coffee-mate here. I used to be a coffee mate junkie for years. I am a little paranoid of the coffee-mate, I remember hearing ears ago that is is linked to health issues, I don't know if that holds true but I remember parkinson's and alzheimer's being two of the concerns. I think it was aluminum and it was in many non-dairy creamers as well as some other foods, and cookware.

      Family education

      By trents · Posted

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.

      Cycle of dermatitis herpetiformis

      By Hopeful1950 · Posted

      Oh yes.  I would never recommend taking it for an extended period of time.  When 70% of my body was covered in blistering itchy sores, an amazing doctor prescribed it diagnostically because I was unwilling to do a gluten challenge after already going strictly gluten-free in desperation after 10 years of suffering and being poo pooed by dermatologist after dermatologist. The fact that it stopped the itch and mostly cleared the rash after about 2 months was diagnostic for him.  I stopped it and have remained strictly gluten-free with very few flares since that time (over 10 years ago).  So the fact that it cleared the rash was diagnostic for me.
