Marimen posted:My daughter suffers from that problem and I am a doctor in nutrition so I usually cook without gluten and I worry about this issue. Many of my clips are gluten-free cookies. I use pure corn flour in the same recipes as with other cereals. There are different brands of flour like proceli or search ( Europe). No problem about that, but not every brand of meringue powder is gluten-free. In fact, many of the brands have almidón . . . so maybe whites and sugar would be a better option or see if your specific meringue powder is gluten-free ( for example, Wilton contains almidón so I can't use for my daughter) - the same with the colorants, but Sugarflair is gluten-free and AmeriColor is good as well.
[EDITOR'S NOTE: FYI, almidón = starch in Spanish; I'm presuming starch from wheat based on the above comments.]
I am a bit confused about the Wilton meringue powder containing gluten, as it is listed among their gluten free products. Are you sure about this? There might be starch in it, but this doesn't necessarily mean gluten. Or maybe they have a special type near you?
