The Ever-Expanding Range Of Gluten Free Products

The Ever-Expanding Range Of Gluten Free Products

Gluten free products are a relatively new concept. With commercial production dating back just forty years to the birth of the Schär brand in the early 80s. Yet the range of gluten free products that are available today is remarkable, and it is expanding all the time.

The last year alone has seen the launch of new gluten free Lindor chocolates by Lindt. To new gluten free brioche burger buns by Schär and a new gluten free IPA from Signature Brew. Here at Glutafin, we have a wide range of products and we’re constantly innovating new recipes. Offering our prescription customers the widest possible choice for their gluten free diet.

An extensive gluten free bread range

In England, gluten free products on prescription are limited to bread, rolls and flour mixes. But there’s still a wide selection to choose from. You can choose from white, brown, or seeded varieties of gluten free bread, with long life options available that stay fresh for as long as four weeks. All of our Select breads have been specially fortified with calcium, fibre and folic acid to give even greater nutritional support to patients with coeliac disease.

For an even fresher flavour, you can choose our part baked rolls and baguettes. Giving you that ‘straight-from-the-oven’ experience of warm crusty bread with an irresistible aroma. These rolls can be eaten straight from the pack, but when warmed in the oven they are even better.  You can even go one better by baking your own gluten free bread from scratch using our Select Multipurpose White Mix.

Much more than bread

Prescription customers in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland can enjoy an even wider choice of gluten free products. From crackers and crispbreads to cornflakes. Coeliac sufferers can bring pasta back into their diet thanks to our gluten free fusilli, penne and spaghetti. And even enjoy a pizza with our gluten free pizza bases, which are conveniently individually wrapped.

Beyond your prescription gluten free foods, you’ll find a huge choice of products now available in supermarkets and health food stores. Schär, Glutafin’s sister brand, offers a delicious range of foods for you to enjoy. You can indulge in chocolate treats like Melto Bars and Mini Dippers, snack on Curvies and pretzels, and munch on biscuits like Jaffa Cakes, Rich tea and Chocolate fingers. Schär also produce a range of gluten free ready meals. Such as lasagne and cannelloni, making gluten free convenient as well as tasty.

A growing market

With as many as one in a hundred people thought to have coeliac disease, there’s a huge potential for gluten free product manufacturers. The global market for gluten free products is forecast to be worth $14 billion by 2032. To put that in perspective, the massive global market for frozen pizza was worth just $20 billion in 2020. In the UK, the gluten free products market is predicted to grow at close to 10% year on year.

A world of choice

From bakery to beverages, confectionary to condiments, seasonings to spreads, the range of gluten free products is growing all the time, and here at Glutafin, we’re proud to be a part of that growth.

We’ve been leading the way in gluten free products since our founder, Ulrich Ladurner launched the Schär brand in 1981. Today, Dr. Schär is still at the forefront of gluten free product development, ensuring that both Glutafin prescription patients and Schär retail customers can enjoy a varied and tasty diet, despite their intolerance to gluten.
