I don't believe it . Lakeland have stopped stocking the Laucke Easy Bakers gluten free bread mix - it's the ONLY gf bread I've found that makes decent sandwiches and that doesn't have something in it that DS2 is allergic to. I've complained and very nice woman at Customer Services says she'll put a 'bring back' request on it - apparently I'm not the first to complain - but I guess they need lots of people to do so before they'll do so. It's imported from Australia and they say it wasn't selling well enough to justify the cost - but the UK distributors (I rang them as well) say they've had loads of complaints too. I looked into getting it direct from the supplier but it would cost $180 to ship and take 65 days! And I've only got two sachets left! Am seriously panicking - I know it sounds daft but DS2(who is autistic) has a hummus sandwich made with this particular bread every day for his packed lunch. The only alternative is rice cakes and I just don't think they're filling enough.

So - rant over - am asking two things.
Firstly, if anyone uses this bread, PLEASE contact Lakeland and complain www.lakeland.co.uk.
And secondly, in case this all comes to nothing, can someone remind me of the name of the woman in ?Wales who sells gf/cf bread mixes/recipes etc. I just can't remember her name - Marion something??
TIA

Did anyone find a solution to Lakeland having stopped stocking the Laucke Easy Bakers gluten free bread mix? We had a large stock of it so have only just run out and discovered Lakeland have stopped it. Although they may get it back in in July/August we desperately need to find anoher source of it - the only bread that makes decent sandwiches for kids with dairy and wheat allergies.
Lakeland say theyve had lots of complaints.
Has anyone found another stockist or a way of importing it cheaply from Australia?
Thanks!

Hi my son is gluten free. The only bread rolls he find acceptable for a packed lunch are the Dietary Specials Ciabatta rolls. These COME PART BAKED AND NEED HEATING FOR 7-8 MINS THEN COOLING BEFORE MAKING INTO SANDWICHES.sorry about the caps only just realised!
