Vegan and Wheat free bread

12 replies

NoodieRoodie · 23/10/2014 20:56

Hi All,

I'm hoping that someone can help me. A good friend has a DD (3) who is severely allergic to: Wheat, dairy, eggs, soya, nuts(?). It's DS's birthday in a couple of weeks and I've invited a few friends round for lunch and I want to just do sandwiches, fruit, cake, etc.. Now the cake I have no problem with, I manged a wheat free, vegan cake before, but trying to find bread is really difficult.

My friend used to get bread from Tesco but they've recently changed the recipe and now include soya so they're consequently bread free and eating BFree wraps. I would love it if I could find some bread for the party.

Here's a recipe:

I know this family and I think they get pre-made bread on prescription as it's so hard to come by. There's Genius bread but I think it may contain soya. I can't remember, but worth checking it out

can you make pancakes yourself and use those as wraps?
made some for a glutenfree/dairy free/egg free friend with doves farm gluten free plain mix and all dc loved them

Thanks for both your suggestions. I think Genius contains soya but I'll check next time I go to the supermarket. I think I might have a go at both bread and pancakes and see how they go

Maybe I am out of turn here but I don't get why a mother would insist on a young child being vegan especially when her diet is so limited due to her allergies.

Perhaps time for that mother to put her own ideals to one side for the sake of her daughter.

Sorry but I can't help feeling sorry for this poor kid. She lready has dietary restrictions due to medical needs and yet her mother is imposing still more to uphold her personal values.

Or OP maybe I have misunderstood- perhaps it is your family who are vegan?

www.thehealthbay.com/ener-g-tapioca-bread-g-f-w-f-480g.html?gclid=CLbQr5GaxsECFSoKwwodyZ0A2A - this can be ordered as a special order through Tesco pharmacy (and I assume other pharmacies as well). Last time i had it it was very nice for sandwiches.

Bigbluestars - I was assuming that vegan was just a term for describing the baking (i.e. egg and dairy free), rather than saying anyone was actually vegan.

NoodieRoodie · 26/10/2014 19:56

Jessbags001 is correct, I used the term vegan cake to indicate one without any animal products in it due rather than saying a wheat free, dairy free, egg free, soya free cake as that seemed a bit of a mouthful!

We will be having ham in the sandwiches as long as I get bread sorted!

flamingtoaster thanks for that link it looks really interesting and when I checked Ener-g on Amazon they have different types of bread all free from everything, I might be able to make sandwiches after all!

These people do a lot of different things. I like the rice or quinoa glutini, especially the bites. Hated the pea one though!

Also energ rice bread is pretty good, dh likes some coconut based paleo wraps some health food places have.

Warburtons do a special wrap that is dairy, egg, soya and gluten/wheat free. You can get it from most large supermarkets but it does go oos very quickly. It will be in the free from section.

There are plenty of gluten free breads but most contain at least egg sadly.
