Why it works
- Celiac disease: The flour is a gluten-free blend and the cocoa, sugar and powdered sugar are naturally gluten-free, so every cookie is off the tin-safe list.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
