Gluten Free Eating Directory of Australia

After my previous efforts to find Gluten Free items I am happy to share that there is a directory of Gluten Free Eating in Australia.

Welcome to the Gluten Free Eating Directory … a comprehensive gluten free guide dedicated to making gluten free eating easier across Australia! Our established free-to-use website provides detailed information about restaurants, cafes, takeaways, shopping outlets, products, manufacturers, gluten free online shops, services, publications and ‘eat’n’stay’ options that cater for gluten free diets. So if you have coeliac disease, gluten intolerance, dermatitis herpetiformis, or just prefer not to eat gluten, this site is for you.

Unfortunately there are no Illawarra restaurants or cafes added to the NSW map search but I hope that we can change that. If you have seen the words 'gluten free' on a menu near you, please let me know or contact the Gluten Free Directory directly. Many hands make light work and here's hoping the Illawarra restaurants and cafes will make it easier to find gluten free eats!

After a little research (and some help from @sejtraav ) I can confirm some gluten free action at Lee and Me in Crown St, Wollongong and at Beachouse Restaurant, Wollongong harbour. More to be added to http://illawarraglutenfree.blogspot.com

Empower low carb and gluten free products

This weekend past I had the pleasure of trying the Empower Triple Choc Muffins that our friend Michael brought over for me to make with his daughter Siobhan who just loves baking and being helpful. When the muffins were cooking everyone was looking forward to sampling them, the aroma so heavenly we chanced burning our fingers to have a taste just moments from the oven. Delicious!



Today I decided to visit the website on the box ( http://www.empowerfoods.com.au ) and found a vast array of low carb and gluten free foods which I can see will be firm favourites.
