Q. Where Can I find your gluten free products?
A. Please see our "List of Stores" page for all the stores that carry our products.  Because we now sell our products through distributors all the stores carrying our products are not listed on our website.  Call you local store to see if they carry our products.  If you would like to see our products in a store in your area, simply ask the store owner to call us for a price list. .

Q. How do I get my local Natural/Health store to sell your products?
A. If there is a store near you that you would like to see sell our products just ask the owner/manager to call us for a current price list or distributor in there area.

Q. How do I order your gluten free products to be shipped to my home?
A. All orders must be placed by any given Friday for the following Tuesday's shipment.  Please call us at 570-689-9694.  Please do not place orders by email. This is not a secure site!

Q. If I placed an order by email would it be filled?
A. At this time we are not accepting online orders. For your protection please do not send us an order via email. This is not a secure site!

Q. How do you ensure that the environment is gluten free...not contaminated?
A. All our products are made in a wheat free/gluten free facility. We contact our suppliers regularly to insure the ingredients are gluten free.

Q. Can the products be frozen?
A. Yes, they can, and here's a flavor tip: When you take the product out and defrost it, make sure you pop it in the mircowave for a few seconds. That will bring back a great, soft texture that will delight you.

Q. What do you use in place of gluten?
A. We use starches, gums and eggs.

Q. There are some products I have never heard of. Can you explain what they are?
A. Holiday Bread - A twisted sweet bread with raisins.
     Cream Sandwich - Chocolate saucers with buttercream icing "sandwiched" in the middle.
     Butterfly cookie - sugar cookie dough with raspberry/apricot filling and sprinkled with powdered sugar.

Q. What should I do if I have some of the symptoms that you described in your story?
A. Consult your doctor immediately. Ask him/her to do a test for Celiac Sprue.

Q. Now that I have purchased your pizza shell how do I prepare it?

A. For the thin shells: Do not heat before adding your toppings. Take your shell from the freezer/refrigerator, add your toppings and heat in oven at 375 degrees until cheese is golden brown (aproximately 15 -20 minutes).  If shell is in the refrigerator, bake within 24 hours.  Otherwise keep frozen.

For the Cheese Pizzas:
The shells are already baked so browning the cheese to your liking is all that is needed .  Take the pizza from your Freezer/Refrigerator (you do not need to defrost first).  Heat oven at about 375 degrees.  Remove plastic and tray from the pizza.  Add your favorite toppings and bake until cheese is golden brown (aproximately 15 - 20 minutes).  If the pizza is in the refrigerator, bake within 24 hours.  Otherwise keep frozen.  Enjoy!

Q. Do I need to freeze the bread products after I purchase them?
A. Yes, put them into the freezer immediately. Take it out slices at a time. For a nice soft slice of bread just put in the microwave for a few seconds until warm and enjoy!

Q. Can I toast your different breads?
A. Yes, our breads have a nice texture when toasted or grilled.

Q. What kind of shelf life do your cakes and cookies have?
A. If they are covered or in plastic bags you can keep them on your counter for about 3 days. But, we suggest freezing them and pulling them out as needed.

Q. Do your products contain Hydrogenated Oil?
A. Most of our products are free of Hydrogenated Oil.  We are hoping to eliminate Hydrogenated Oil in all of our products in the near future.  We continue to put pressure on our suppliers to make the change to ingredients that are free of Hydrogenated Oil.  Our Ingredients page lists the products that do not have Hydrogenated Oil in them.  

Q. I bought your all purpose flour mix.  How much Xanthan Gum do I need to add?
A. For cookies & cakes add 1/4 teaspoon per cup of flour; for muffins add 1/2 teaspoon per cup of flour and for breads add 1 teaspoon per cup of flour.
