Wicklewood’s Gluten Free Flour Mix
"It seems obvious I know but lighter flours are better for lighter recipes, and I am a firm believer in less is more; gluten free flour doesn’t need to be complicated, the only rule of thumb with this flour blend is to use 2 teaspoons of xanthan gum for every lb. of flour."

This looks very close to what Orgrans uses from reading the list and their mix is the best. Littlelost, cornstarch is gluten free, it's wheat, rye and barley that have gluten. I've been using it for a long with no problems and I can't even tolerate cross contamination from touching something. -
I haven't tried this recipe yet, but everyone looking for a gluten free mix should be aware that corn starch, and for that matter any corn products, are not gluten-free. They are far lower in gluten than wheat or barley, but people with celiac should still avoid it.

<p><span><span><strong>...and so the wench,the maid and the village idiot lived happily ever after.</strong></span></span></p>
<p>I have always loved my food (not just my own but anyone's who offered it to me),,, then five years ago I was diagnosed with ceoliacs disease and all notion of ever having my favorite foods again went out the window. However, nessesity really is the mother of invention; instead of feeling sorry for myself and my dietry limitations,,,I got creative. I am in the process of starting my own business, which initially was exclusively targeted at ceoliacs, but thanks to my new husband and his diabetes, we hope to create food that is not only gluten free and sugar free or low carb, but will also cater for those amongst us with a whatever attitude to healthy food...Yes I do have one left at home,,bring on the empty nest.</p>
