Welcome to our Balanced Gluten Free online food shop. We recognise first hand how difficult it is to purchase ‘gluten free food’ ‘low gluten foods’ or ‘free from’ food and products in a one-stop-shop. Our own family has a history of coeliac disease, allergies and intolerances to certain foods, making shopping a real challenge.

“It is our aim through our Balanced Gluten Free food shop, to give our clients easy access to a range of gluten free food, low gluten foods and ingredient listing gluten free foods and products, straight from our internet shop delivered to your door”.

"Coeliac disease is one of the most under-diagnosed, yet most common chronic diseases and, if left undiagnosed, may lead to the possibility of severe consequences such as bowel cancer and osteoporosis.

Coeliac disease affects approximately 1 in 100 people in Australia but 75% of people don't know they have it. Coeliac disease is an auto-immune disease, which means that the body produces antibodies that attack its own tissues. For people with coeliac disease, this is triggered by gluten, a protein found in wheat, rye, barley and oats. " The Coeliac Society - www.coeliacsociety.com.au

We have recently tried "the real bread mix" gluten free bread mix which is available in our online shop and were amazed by the results. We feel this bread is by far the best we have tried. It stores well in the fridge for 3 to 4 days or can be cut and frozen. Unlike other gluten free breads these loaves do not crumble when defrosted. Just a few seconds in the microwave softens and gives that fresh bread texture again. Pictured above are our gluten free loaves made up by following the easy instructions on the back of the pack. One packet makes one 850 gram (approx) loaf.
