Starbucks GF Hazelnut & Chocolate Slice

Starbucks Gluten Free Hazelnut and Chocolate Slice

I have searched high and low for the Starbucks Gluten Free Hazelnut and Chocolate slice. And guess what?! I found it at a store on my birthday! How perfect. So I grabbed it for breakfast. I never eat cakes and things like that, but hey it was my birthday I'm allowed too.

I've had Starbucks gluten free brownies before, and this chocolate loaf was basically the delicious brownie with hazelnuts on top. It tasted nice and rich and hazelnut gave it a different taste as well. However, since I had this loaf for breakfast, pretty early in the morning, I was on chocolate overdose. I think this would be the ideal snack for tea time, but way to heavy and sweet for breakfast.

If you're lucky and manage to find this, definitely a nice sweet treat. Personally, too sweet for me. Won't be having it for awhile now.

Fria Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls

One of the best stands at this year's Allergy and Free From show was Fria.  Fria is the Scandinavian market leader in gluten-free bakery products.

And boy are there products delicious!!! My favorite product from all the sampling I did from the whole show was there cinnamon rolls!!!! I've never had a gluten free cinnamon roll and man I've MISSED them. My London family always brings Cinnabon cinnamon rolls from the U.S. And my mouth always waters. But I was just so excited to find GF cinnamon rolls. I was told by someone at the Fria counter that Sweden uses cinnamon for a a lot of their foods, so having a cinnamon roll in their gluten free product line was a given and something Swedish gluten free folks couldn't live without.

They also had many other delicious products. Like their bread, rolls and this really nice Swedish style chocolate brownie cake called Kladdkaka. The bread and cake tasted like normal. My husband who isn't gluten free didn't even think they tasted gluten free!

Fria is trying to break into the U.K. Market and have their products available in stores. So write to your local grocery markets and demand Fria products, I know I've already asked!
