Walls vanilla Mini Milk

These mini milk lollies are any products found in a 12 pack box which also contains strawberry and chocolate milk ice. Only the vanilla flavoured milk ice, which are in reached with calcium, are gluten-free.

The descriptions in the back clearly shows the gluten-free wedding. Sat this blog only deals with products which have the exact words greeting free otherwise I will not review them.

As I said there are three flavours in this box home and there are four of each. This is a frozen product comes in a carpal box each of the ice lollies inside are in their own separate packets.

The Tasting Experience

These are creamy and smooth. They are full of delicious milky flavour and tastes very much as you would expect them to. The texture is crisp and then delicate. They are a complete delight.

The conclusion

It is really nice to find a product that could easily contain gluten, about is free. It is also great that there is a normality to the product and that you don't feel that they are specially treated. So many products could follow this trend, and I have to give walls credit for adding in the simple little words on the back of the package. It shows that the product is not contaminated and that those of us who can't eat wheat can eat these and enjoy them for the pleasure that they are.

Waitrose Love life free from chocolate chip cookies

Waitrose seemed to be increasing their gluten free range. Personally I often buy from Sainsburys but I'm more than happy to mix.

These were bought by my motherinlaw for me and this blog now seems cookie focused but don't worry there will be other stuff soon!

These cookies have a pink feel and the packaging is fairly plain.

The cookies look thin on the cover, we shall see. 

Inside a plastic tray is sealed and there are 9 biscuits. One is broken. 

The Tasting Experience

The biscuit it's self is very dry and the chips are small. They're crumbly and dusty but the chocolate chips do take the edge off dry texture. The taste is vanilla and natural, mild.  The chocolate is dark, probably about 80% coco as they are quite bitter but a welcome injection of taste against the bland cookie. 

The second cookie tastes a bit more buttery which is welcome. 

Conclusion

Again these would be great with a drink as the dryness clings to the back of your throat. The chocolate is a nice injection of  taste. But these once again for a base biscuit are dry and dusty. 

Farmhouse Vanilla flavoured shortbread Gluten Free biscuits

This is the first product on my blog and it's a type of product which is very difficult to get hold of for a coeliac. These are Farmhouse biscuits and you can see the picture here.

They come in some really nice packaging and there is a range of four I believe, I might try those later. The brand is called farmhouse biscuits Ltd and they describe them as finest traditionally made biscuits. They Have a nice heritage section on the side of the box that describes a bit about the history of the company which was set up in 1962. Although I have never seen this product before.

In this box you get 150 g of biscuit, and they are delicious biscuits, apparently. In this range are stem ginger and spice, triple chocolate chip, and Honey crunch. That last one does sound good. I have to admit I went for the short bread because I find being gluten-free that the basic foods are sometimes the hardest things to get right so there is a lot of anticipation coming for this biscuit.

Inside I find a plastic container holding 12 swirl, shortbreads biscuits. They are in a plastic wrapper.

As I open the package the smell is mild, with the slight sense of a vanilla perfume.

The tasting experience

The first mouthful feels quite dry, where I expected there to be more of a buttery taste. The vanilla flavour is very light and There is a creamy aftertaste. The actual structure of the biscuit is quite hard, rather than crumbly. The creaminess becomes richer and almost heavy. The structure of the biscuit other than solid feels like compacted powder rather than a buttery crumbliness. These would definitely be good with a cup of tea because of this dry nature. The biscuit itself is quite thin which might be something to do with the density of its structure. There is very little lingering taste, and no sense that I have eaten a sweet product and in fact my throat feels a bit dry.

Conclusion

These biscuits look really great and the packaging is eye-catching. But as usual something simple like a short bread proves to be very difficult to make. I found these fairly tasteless, dry and hard. They break down into a powdery dust which is often a side effect of having no gluten in the product. As a gluten-free biscuits there are better ones out there on the market but I feel I should give this brand a chance and will be trying the honey crunch at a later date.
