Many of you know GERALD.ph for our freshly baked breads and pastries. But I have also received a few requests from some customers who follow a gluten-free diet to make some options for them. That’s why this year, we also started introducing gluten-free food items so that these customers can also enjoy bread, cookies, pizza, and pasta.
In simple terms, gluten constitutes about 80% of the protein in common grains such as wheat, rye, barley and oats. Some people can have an allergy or intolerance towards gluten, so they must follow a gluten-free diet for medical reasons.
Our gluten-free items are prepared in a separate facility from our regular breads and pastries, so there is no fear of cross-contamination. Most of our gluten-free items are also vegan (except the gluten-free salami pizza). They are also frozen to preserve the freshness as long as possible (except the pastas, which are dried).
