Gluten Free Chocolate Brownie by We Love Cake
Gluten Free Chocolate Brownie by We Love Cake { We Love Cake has entered the Australian market and brings us their Double Chocolate Brownies! } Contributor: We Love Cake These delicious Gluten Free Double Chocolate Brownies are gluten free, wheat free and milk free – perfect for our GF + DF friends! Available at Coles! Bells of Lazonby, a family bakery based in the heart of the British countryside in the North West of England, have been perfecting the art of the gluten free brownie for 17 years. Having built the first dedicated gluten, wheat and milk free bakery of its kind in the UK, they are pioneers in the free from baking sector. Their delicious free from brownie has now made its way onto Australian shelves and is available nationwide at your local Coles store. The brand name which this bakery business decided upon for the product range epitomizes the very nature of the people that so lovingly craft these products – its name, We Love Cake. Holding steadfast to this brand sentiment, their brownies are made in small batches to best replicate home baking and each one is hand finished with a generous sprinkling of chocolate chips. The brownie recipe contains 30% of real chocolate which makes for a very moist and fudgy brownie that is rich and indulgent. Surprisingly, this treat doesn’t break the calorie bank however, as it is crafted with high quality cocoa containing a minimum of 53% cocoa solids. Each slice indeed contains 178 calories which is comfortably under the recommended 200 calories snack mark. We Love Cake prides itself on making products that are 100% safe for those with Coeliac disease to consume with rigorous testing to the lowest gluten parts per million. Conscious that many consumers also suffer additional food allergies and intolerances alongside Coeliac disease, all the We Love Cake products are also milk free for those who have more than one allergy. This means that you and your other friends and family with allergies can feel included and not have to miss out on that delicious cake moment any longer! The slices are handily packaged in twin packs of two slices, so you don’t have to open the whole pack in one go meaning the other slices will stay fresher for longer if you can resist them! They are perfect for taking on picnics and sharing with family and friends as well as slipping in the handbag for that afternoon pick-me-up at work. They are also great for catering at children’s birthday parties for any guests that may have a food allergy, because you can keep the cakes wrapped in the packets to maintain the free from integrity of the product until it is ready to be consumed by the specific guest(s). This way, all the children can join in and no one is made to feel left out or different. The brownie can also be made into tasty desserts for everyone to enjoy, including twinning with dairy free ice cream or cream (if keeping the milk free element of it was important to the dietary requirements) and a handful of strawberries or raspberries (the definition of a balanced diet, right?). They could also be cut up into chunks and put onto sticks for cute pop cakes – decorated with icing and edible glitter…however you choose to enjoy them, we’re sure you’ll love them!
