Hi DS is allergic to all the above, he is 7.5 months old, is there any rusk type snacks i can buy or make for him. I found ones on Holle baby food site made from spelt but he had an allergic reaction to spelt (gluten).
Thanks

Not sure have you tried looking on peanut allergy uk ,anan cam etc.

I will try to look in my books and get back to you later.

What about godness direct or orgran or could you phone your local health store?

rice cakes?

Farleys do some gluten free rusks which although have been made on a line handling dairy, don't contain dairy themselves. Otherwise there is a recipe for low allergy rusks on the Neocate website.

Can he have rice biscuits? Dried out apple rings - I used to do these myself - DS LOVED them! Really nice for sore gum days too. Good luck - tricky list of allergies there!

blimey what a challenge!

You might have to go further than rusks type snacks with that list...! Traditional snacks don't really cut it do they.

carrots? DS will eat cooked ones

apple chunks

guacamole on ricecakes

dried apricots (a few)...

raisins

fish fingers chopped up...?

sorry if this wasn't what you were after...

Hi there,
My boy (18mo) is allergic to all those you mention plus a few more!! Anyway he is currently enjoying snacking on:
-Treaty type stuff:
Organix organic carrot sticks (originally bought them because they sounded goodforyou ha ha they saw me coming!! - they are basically corn crips like chipsticks. You can find them in the baby aisle.)
Pinkpanther pink wafer biscuits in the freefrom aisles
Kinnerton freefrom chocolate (they do ordinary chocolate too so check packaging)But you will find their lollies and bars in the freefrom aisle.
-Good stuff:
We also buy DS (name of brand!) freefrom bread - you have to revive it in the mw but ds loves it - they do brown sliced, white unsliced and ciabatta - also in the freefrom aisle.
for healthy snacks (ahem) I get corn on the cobs and cook them and take them out and obviously fruit and cucumber sticks and ricecakes and stuff.
All the best

sorry - probably a lot of stuff there a bit too treaty!
Ds didn't have his first biscuit or chocolatey thing 'til he was past his first birthday and I was really wanting to find something he could enjoy when the other toddlers were getting icecreams in the park

I fell foul of spelt too - apparently so close to wheat that cannot be labelled as wheat free.

We use Organix snacks (DS loves these!), Lyme Regis fruit and oat bars and Crazy Jacks fruit fingers. I've also tried with some success to make oat bars / biscuits with oats, apple juice and raisins and oats, pure sunflower spread and agave syrup.
