Junk Food Addict visits the Fine Food Festival

The funny thing about wearing a uniform that says 'Gluten Grain Free' means that whatever stall you go to, people assume you're coeliac or Gluten intollerant and you are therefore given the 'Gluten Free' Option.

Surprisingly though, there are a lot of options out there.. a lot of them being salads and fresh foods but then again some ice creams and pasta sauces etc.

The other side of it was that people would refuse to offer me samples assuming I would have a horrible allergic reaction to it. That's when I would kindly say: I'm not gluten intollerant, I just work for a gluten free company.

One thing that I did enjoy thoroughly and mainly because it had the junk food factor was Mini Melts Ice Cream Dream. check it out: http://www.minimelts.com.au/

They're snap frozen ice cream drops that honestly confuse your brain but are truly enjoyable.

All of the flavours are gluten free apart from 'Cookies and Cream' and 'Cookie Dough'(for obvious reasons).

They sell them in individual serving size containers. And unless you were told they were gluten free, you wouldn't even notice the difference.

Apart from that, my mum tried a new gluten free muffin recipe and a musli bar mix using our Quinoa flour and seed that are rather tasty. Will upload those recipes for you soon.

We got a pretty good turn out at the fine food festival, plenty of people interested in selling and buying our products.

If you happened to be there, we had the AWESOME stand with the grass and the Aztec ruins that had THE LOST CEREAL painted onto them and we were giving out free enviro bags.

Anyway, I'll be updating my blog more frequently as the weeks go on so stay tuned.
