Candy On A Gluten Free Diet? Yes, With Gluten Free Candy!

Gluten is simply the protein part of many grains, including wheat, rye, and barley. Gluten sensitivity problems are unfortunately becoming more and more prevalent, with problems occurring when gluten comes in contact with the small intestine. This condition is called Celiac Disease, and requires the sufferer to sustain a gluten free diet. Unfortunately, a gluten free diet can seem quite restrictive, but Captain Candy and the rest of the BlairCandy team are here to save the day - we have a great selection of Gluten Free Candy in stock!

Scarily enough, nine out of ten people with Celiac Disease do not know they have it! Common symptoms include weight loss, abdominal cramps, and bloating. Once patients commit to a gluten free diet, the lining of the large intestine has time to heal. Of course, gluten is in many foods, so it is vital to read all nutrition labels, and even seek out grocery stores that specifically feature a gluten free section. We’ve done our homework and consulted with our candy manufacturers to create an entirely gluten free candy section for you, with gluten free candy favorites such as:

Gluten Free Gummy Candy - Love Gummi Worms? Then you’re in luck - they’re delicious, and a gluten free candy! Same goes for one of our customer favorites, and a wonderfully classic candy: Peach Rings! The refreshing taste of peaches and gummy consistency can still be enjoyed on a gluten free diet.

Gluten Free Novelty Candy - Remember those Nik L Nip Wax Bottles from when you were a kid? Yep, they’re a gluten free candy. The sweet and sour taste of Smarties is another gluten free candy option, along with Tootsie Frooties, a parade route favorite, and on our top 5 list of favorite penny candies!

Gluten Free Lollipops - Popping a delightful lollipop in your mouth is a great way to unwind, or as a less-fatty alternative to afternoon snacking! And now, many of your favorite lollipop varieties have made our gluten free candy list, such as our Rainbow Whirly Lollipops, Charms Sweet and Sour Lollipops, and Jolly Rancher Lollipops.

There’s no need to feel restricted by a gluten free diet. Sure, you may need to alter some of your eating habits, but your grocery store should have a great selection of gluten free foods that are just as delicious. Plus, our Gluten Free Candy section has a wonderful collection of candy favorites that just happen to be gluten free, too!
