Dessert: Gluten freeK style! πŸ˜‹

Where do I start?

My love for gluten is one of those things that hasn't really diminished with time. It's definitely easier to handle after three years, but there are days when I just want cake, ok?! 😫

And I don't want to pay $3 more than everyone else for a rice flour substitute. I just want cake!!!! Where is Marie Antoinette when you need her?

But once in a while... once in a blue, blue moon...

something wicked(ly delicious) this way comes!

Did you know that macarons are naturally gluten free?

oh yep...yep, they arrrrre!

Can there be anything BETTER than macarons? Glad you asked.

Feast your eyes on these beauties.

You're welcome! 😎

Being from New Orleans, I've had a ton of macarons, and pastries, and yummy desserts, but I have never had a macaron Ice cream sandwich. I can only imagine that they were sinful... yummy for my tummy!!!! And gluten free to boot!!! What!!!! Lol

Right???? Happiest day for gluten freeks!!!! Lol

Hehehhee but the ones without ice cream are yum too.

But yes... They're made with almond flour.. not wheat... So no gluten to worry about!!!

No doubt! Those look yummy!! Mmm! I have yet to try macaroon. They are getting so popular! And, mixed with ice cream! Good idea! Haha

If you find macaroons in the store... Beware!!!! Hehehehhee they are not macarons!

Macaroons are the coconut cookies.

Macarons are the delicate deliciousness I'm speaking of hehehehehe

You have made me fancy a slice of cake now, I haven't had any in ages. Nothing to do with Gluten, just we haven't had any in the house. Unless a Mini Roll counts as cake anyway. Macaroons and ice cream are the best though, fantastic when the weather is hot.

Out of interest in the Gluten Free a lifestyle choice are due to a medical condition - I know there are a few illness's Gluten Free relieves but it's actually supposed to be really good for general health.

Hi @c0ff33a hehehehe that's a tricky name to type!!! ;) I'm not sure what a miniroll is - but if it's sweet and its gluteny... YEAH heheheh that's cake! LOL

Eating gluten free is very good for general health :) Often, people have issues that they're unaware are caused by gluten. (not necessarily JUST the gluten - but the things that have been done to our gluten. Wheat has been terribly abused.)

but -yes - my gluten issues are not by choice. If i had a choice - I would eat it morning, noon, and night LOLOL did you know that it actually turns into a morphine derivative in your brain??? heheheh no wonder why we love it so much!!!! thanks for the visit!!! (and i had way too much fun with those cartoons today hehehe)

I don’t know that I’ve ever had a macaroon. I’m beginning to think I’m missing out!

You're the third person (in DM or comment) to spell it that way... hehehhee I think I'll have to update the post JUST TO MAKE SURE you all get the RIGHT thing when you do try one.

Macarons... Are the funny, almost -fake looking, pretty pastel cookies that look like toy food! Hehe

Macaroons ... Are the coconut cookies...

Very very different cookies. But I want you all to try MACARONS! LOL

And if you can find the ice cream sandwich version.... Get ready for heeeeeeaven! πŸ˜‚

Rice flour, pfft! We don't need that crap to have GF cake.
Chocolate mud cake made with just chocolate and eggs...
Orange cake made with boiled oranges and almond flour, with melted chocolate on top...
Friands with almond flour, berries and a smattering of icing sugar sprinkled over the top...
Ginger crunch (ok that probably has a little rice flour in the base)...
Kay's GF brownies might have a little rice flour too, but they are goood...
Chocolate macadamia cake with melted choc and eggs...
Need I go on?
;-)

hehehehehe it's actually not the rice flour that i hate... its the way that they made it in the stores - but all the fresh stuff - pretty goo :)

ok - i need the orange cake recipe please!!!!! LOL PLEEEEEASE :)

Orange cake - https://steemit.com/recipes/@kiwideb/happy-birthday-to-me-with-birthday-cake-recipe

Ginger crunch - I have to admit to just buying that from the organic store occasionally, but I did develop this version for clients many years ago (way before I was taking pictures, so when it went on my blog, it looked a bit dull) http://www.frot.co.nz/design/recipes/ginger-crunch/

@dreemsteem... You know what happened to Marie Antoinette after she told the people to eat cake.
I ate some macaroons the other day..made them myself , call them haystacks.

hehehehe macaroons - the ones with the coconut? i am not really a big fan of them - because the coconut feels like paper on my tongue! hehehehehe

have you ever made macarons? i hear they are a more difficult cookie to make... but when you master them - you're sooooooo happy! hahahahahaha

and Marie Antoinette... hmmmmm let's just focus on the fact that she will give me cake!!!! LOLOLOLOL we will forget the rest ;)

😊 I was thinking of the ones made with coconut, cocoa, oatmeal, butter, milk. Not much butter.
I haven’t made any others called macarons..with the one β€˜O’. πŸ˜‚

ohhhhh yes - the ones that i'm talking about are with one O

they look like fake food! hehehe they're so pretty! I'll show you a rainbow of colors that they come in!


(but the ones that I mentioned in the post - they're a fusion of the cookie - and the ice cream sandwich mmmmmmm!)

Waww.. amazing πŸ™Œ
