Mrs Crimble's (the gluten free people) recently sent me some of their New Range Authentically French Gluten Free Continental Cakes products to try out. Yes, I am a very lucky girl. The new Authentically French range from Mrs Crimbles, includes two deliciously gluten free products: Classic madeleines and Chocolat Madeleine with a rich chocolate filling. They are individually wrapped and made in France. These little cakes are perfect for adding to lunch boxes or for adding a special touch to the breakfast table.
The people from Mrs Crimble's, deliciously gluten-gree, recently sent me some of the Party Season friendly products to taste.

Mrs Crimble’s NEW special edition Choc Macaroons with Stem Ginger
Mrs Crimble’s NEW special edition Choc Macaroons with Stem Ginger are the perfect festive goodies. Based on their best-selling Choc Macaroon recipe, the UK’s number one selling treat in the cakes category, Mrs Crimble’s have created an irresistible NEW special edition Choc Macaroon with chunks of warm stem ginger.
Mrs Crimble’s Choc Macaroon with Stem Ginger will be available to buy from major supermarkets, convenience stores and independent speciality food retailers nationwide from October 2015, with a recommended retail price of £1.59 for the six pack.
We have always loved their regular Choc Macaroons, and we really love these! We really enjoyed the spicy sweet ginger hit that you get from the little chunks of stem ginger. We would happily by these and will be looking for them in the shops.
They also sent me a pack of their Cheese Straws
Mrs Crimble’s has unveiled festive light and crispy Cheese Straws – which are gluten free – so the whole family can share them this Christmas season. The cheesy puff pastry straws can be enjoyed straight from the packet, or for a really special treat serve them to your guests gently warmed. The foil-fresh packaging ensures that they’ll stay fresh and crisp until you’re ready to enjoy them.
NEW Cheese Straws RRP £1.99
I wasn't able to heat these in the oven to see how they were warmed up, as they arrived all smashed to smithereens! (Oh, the perils of British Post!!) However I can say that the crumbs were incredibly flakey and very tasty! These would be a great addition to the Gluten Free Drinks and Nibbles for Gluten free Holiday Parties. I will be using the crumbs to top my holiday casseroles!
Many thanks to Mrs Crimble's for sending me these products to try out.

Allergy Awareness Week, April 28th to May 4th, Coeliac Awareness Week, 11th to 17th May 2015
Did you know...?
50% of young people in Britain suffer
from one or more allergies* and more than a third of all parents
believe that their child has a food allergy or sensitivity of some
sort**.
Nearly a third (31%) of households contain someone who has a food allergy or intolerance, the majority being self-diagnosed.***
Over 1 in 5 (22%) of the population consider themselves to have a food allergy or intolerance (an increase of 5% compared to 2011).***
Happily though, Mrs Crimble’s, the much loved gluten free British bakery brand, is proving that people who are gluten intolerant can still enjoy snacks, cakes and other treats that taste every bit as yummy as the mainstream alternatives. They are also succeeding in making sure that their products are widely available – from supermarkets and convenience stores to department store cafes, airline snack boxes, delicatessens and local fine food stores.

Mrs
Crimble’s reputation was built on the huge success of their Coconut and
Choc Macaroon products but has now grown to include savoury snacks,
home bake mixes, crackers and individually wrapped products such as
flapjacks that can be enjoyed on the go.

Mrs Crimble’s products enable people with allergies to enjoy products with all of the taste and none of the gluten – ensuring families and friends can enjoy great food together.

Here are a few of the Mrs Crimble's products I enjoy (aside from their Macaroons which are just the best thing ever!).
Mrs Crimble's Chocolate Coated Rice Cakes
Mrs Crimble's new chocolate coated rice cakes are delicious. Made from puffed rice, they are baked and not fried then topped with delicious chocolate. And only 81 calories per slice. A great snack option.
Mrs Crimbles Cheese Crackers
Mrs Crimble's Cheese Crackers come in a variety of flavours, Original, Rosemary and Onion, Tomato and Pesto and Hot Chilli Cheese. There is something for every taste. Crispy, crunchy, baked not fried and deliciously gluten free. Four crackers = 82 calories
Mrs Crimble's Cakes and Biscuits
These come in four different indulgent flavours. Bakewell Slices. Double Chocolate Brownies. Lemon Slices. Country Fruit Slices. Calories Vary.
My favourites are the Country Fruit Slices ( A classic recipe with a moist sponge filled with juicy raisins, cranberries and apricots with a pastry base and topped with sugar) and of course the Lemon Slices (A light moist lemon sponge layered with a tangylemon filling and topped with icing). Both are of course gluten free.
I think it's just wonderful that celiacs and allergy sufferers have these delicious options available for them today. They need never feel deprived. In days gone by it would have been very frustrating to have a person with these dietary concerns in the home, but thankfully more and more products are becoming available for them all the time.
Mrs Crimble’s started over 30 years ago and today their products can be found in all good independent farm shops, health stores, delicatessens and supermarkets such as Sainsbury’s, Asda, Waitrose, Morrisons, Co-op, and Tesco. Mrs Crimble’s can also be found in the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.
The company is the Official Free From Sponsor of England Netball, in particular supporting the Back to Netball scheme which encourages female players of all ages to get active and re-introduced to the much loved school sport.
Mrs Crimble’s are Official Gluten Free Partner to Breast Cancer Campaign which involves support of the successful University Fundraising initiatives, donations via promotional packs during October (Breast Cancer Awareness Month) and many other activities.
In response to consumer feedback, Mrs Crimble’s have launched an online shop providing consumers with a convenient location to access the complete range. The website also features Mrs Crimble’s blog and a regularly updated ‘Where to Buy’ tab at www.mrscrimbles.com.
