This week’s guest works with our buddies over at Ten Acre crisps and in her spare time runs a little Insta-blog by the name of @GlutenFreeManc. Let’s see what Rachel has to say for herself…   Right then Rachel…we’ll start with an easy one. How long ago were you diagnosed with Coeliac disease? I was diagnosed when I was 19, so 11 years ago. I had been poorly for a few years before hand, to the point I had to drop out of university – it was all very stressful!   We can imagine! You must’ve seen some very positive changes to the gluten-free landscape over the past decade or so… Like you ..read more

The time has come once again where we must cast the dazzling beam of the spotlight upon a fellow coeliac. Our latest As most of you will know, when you’re first diagnosed with a gluten-intolerance, the help and guidance of somebody with a few more GF diet-years under their belt is invaluable. Unfortunately, this guidance is not always readily available, and not everyone has a friend/family member who suffers from the disease. This is where we come in. Enter, Jess, A 25-year-old school teacher from up’ North! Right then, let’s start with the classic! At what age were you diagnosed with Coeliac ..read more

It’s the 29th May which means two things. Firstly, it’s our new intern, Gina’s birthday. Secondly, and much more importantly, it’s national biscuit day, which is a pretty big deal as far as these national days go.

If you’re up for joining in the biscuity festivities, we’ve left a few of our fave recipes below. Enjoy!   Gluten Free Jaffa Cake Is it a cake or is it a biscuit? Who cares when they ..read more

The scorching weather last week really brought out the worst in the Too Good To Be staff. There were fights over the seats with optimal sun, squabbles over placement of the one office fan that still works, and friendships ruined over the distribution of the limited number of ice cube trays. While all this was going on behind us, we felt it was up to the social media team to uphold the values of this fine brand and produce something of real importance to our customers. In the end we settled on offering up a few of our favourite London picnic spots, along with the ideal goodies to bring along fo ..read more

A few weeks ago we put out a request on Twitter for participants in the next edition of the Coeliac Spotlight. Out of all the responses there was one who stood out in particular for their fabulously named blog. We were a little unsure as to the reason for the name and our nosiness getting the better of us we decided to invite her for a little chinwag. Please give a warm welcome to the Coeliac Sloth… Right Georgina, let’s get straight to it…how long since your diagnosis? I was diagnosed in 2015, at 23 years old, after having various nutritional deficiencies, bowel problems, and the fatigue and ..read more

So in case you weren’t aware, this week is Coeliac Awareness Week, and in the midst of all the madness and the vast quantities of pie we’ve been eating we managed to chat with one of our favourite coeliac bloggers, The Coeliac Sanctuary!

May Day Madness Well then ladies and gents, it’s May Day and you know what that means? Oh, no neither do we. We were hoping you could tell us since nobody here at Too Good To Be HQ seems to have a clue. All we really know is that it involves a pole, Morris dancing and most importantly…food. So in celebration of this, the most ambiguous of revelries, here are three tasty gluten free recipes that have no real link to the day, aside from the fact they are being posted on a day, in may. A May Day if you will… Gluten Free Bakewell Tart If you’ve never tried a Bakewell Tart then it’s high time you d ..read more
